Working with Kara on my manuscript has been transformative. After years of writing, I came to her for a developmental edit to move forward with confidence. Kara didn't just identify technical issues; she expanded my vision for the manuscript. She balanced specificity with sensitivity, offering critique that deepened rather than diminished the vulnerability in my memoir. Her feedback gave me concrete tools to revise. Most importantly, she helped me gain clarity on my manuscript's purpose an...

What an extremely excellent developmental editor you are, Martha! I believe you were sent to me by no other than Divine Providence. Your editorial wisdom, persistence, and human compassion helped this manuscript become what i always dreamed it would be: a tale of resilience despite challenging times. Your attention to detail, your eagle eye ...your diligence in keeping me up to date. I cannot thank you enough for bringing this manuscript to life. I am sure that my agent will appreciate what...

Lia was an incredible editor and co-creator to work with to bring my first spiritual awakening book into form. Since I was very new to structuring a book, Lia guided me immensely through the developmental edit to make my manuscript more robust, impactful, succinct and flowing. She offered super helpful feedback on where to clarify parts, bring my storytelling more to life, add examples and link each chapter so it all weaves together seamlessly. Through implementing her feedback, I found mysel...

Becca was amazing. End of review. I mean, I could (and will) go on. But that's the gist. Becca is everything you want in an editor. She took my story and brought it back to me with thoughtful critiques, suggestions, and points that I had missed no matter how many times I'd gone over it myself. I had finished this story over a year ago and in all that time I missed so many things that could have made it better. Becca helped tease those out, and I found pure happiness revising it after our coll...

Passionate, professional and detailed work. A great translator to work with.

Chiara was great and listened to what I wanted. She was responsive and finished work on time. I enjoyed working with her!

Working with Nina has been such a positive and productive experirence. Her knowledge and professionalism was of great benefit for me. It's my first time going through a process such as this, and it's been quite productive and beneficial. I appreciate her partnership in this process and will not hesitate to engage with her again, should the need arise.

Fast. Thorough. Easy to work with. Great work.

Working with Izabela was one of the most rewarding creative collaborations I have ever experienced. When I first began this project, I had a manuscript and a vision for how I wanted the book to feel, but I quickly realized that creating a book is about much more than simply placing words on a page. It is about creating an experience for the reader. Izabela understood that from the very beginning. What impressed me most was that she never approached the project as someone simply executing in...

Agatha’s dev edit on Unbidden is the kind of work that makes you feel both seen as a writer and capable as a craftsperson. She read my manuscript like a reader and then diagnosed it like an editor, with total command of narrative mechanics (pacing, viewpoint discipline, structure), plus a sharp instinct for what my story is really about: the terrifying intimacy of being “used” by something bigger than you. Her notes are deeply specific, actionable, and cross-referenced in a way that makes rev...

Nuno continues to amaze me. This is our fifth time working together, and his professionalism, creativity, ingenuity, and attention to detail are unmatched. He has created a recognizable and amazing brand identity for me, and I can't wait to work with him again on the next project. He's truly gifted and a joy to work with!

Sue was an absolute dream to work, I'm grateful to have had her insight and professionalism to guide me on the editing of my book.

Lyndsay was AMAZING! As a first time author she did such a great job of explaining edits, ensuring clarity of my content and working to keep my voice and the impact of my message strong. She will be my go to editor should I decide to write another book.

There is no better illistrator that I could ever hope to find than Shaun Friend. His work is masterful, beautiful, breath taking. He is also easy to work with. He was responsive to all my imputs and all the illistrations were completed on time.

Tom has been a fantastic editor. Encouraging and clear. From the start, he was very engaged with the genre and plot of my novel. At the beginning of the process, I was unhappy with the structure of my dual timeline story. As an industry expert, he pointed out how to position the narratives and re-order the timelines for maximum effect. His advice has been invaluable and I would happily recommend his services to anyone needing a developmental edit. (Having said that, he went above and beyond t...
