Jo is a real professional. Her help getting my project of designing a children's picture book was just what I needed. As first time children's book author and illustrator, there were many components that required more coordinating than I had anticipated. The project was beyond my capabilites, which is where Jo' expertise was so helpful. In the process, she pointed out things that needed adjustment to my copy and art. We had to rework some pages to fit the requirements of the printing company ...

Working with Celia has been an absolute pleasure. She went above and beyond, and the insights she shared with me have been invaluable. I wholeheartedly recommend working with her. She’s an absolute star, and I will definitely be back with additional projects. Thanks so much, Celia--this has been a total blast and I’m super grateful for all your stellar work!

Jennifer is a fantastic editor. She was super easy to work with and was always willing to go above and beyond when I needed extra support. She provided thoughtful feedback and was the first person to let me know when my character wouldn't behave a certain way! Sometimes, it felt like she knew my characters more than I did in the moment. I loved working with Jennifer and truly recommend her to anyone that is seeking out a book coach. This was one of the best experiences I've had working with a...

Laura's feedback definitely exceeded my expectations; it was a good critical mix that I can really see and understand what I need to do to make my story better. I would work with her again :)

If I could give more stars, I would. Dakota's editorial assessment and copy editing was beyond helpful and encouraging. I'm excited to work more on my writing with the feedback she provided. The line by line suggestions were transformative! Hire Dakota and benefit from her keen eye and warm approach. Thank you!

Elin is great. Respectful, cheery, and takes feedback like a champ.

Brooke is incredible! She has taken my writing to a level that I didn’t know was possible. Working with her has been nothing short of amazing. I’m very grateful for her expertise. I now have writing that I am confident putting out for the world to see.

Before the project began Ore scheduled a Zoom consultation to understand my goals, discuss the services available, and align on pricing. She took the time to specialize her approach based on what I needed rather than offering a one size fits all service. That level of care before the work even started set the tone for everything that followed. Ore ensured that I chose the right service based on what I was looking for. We agreed that a manuscript assessment was the best choice as I had initial...

As a first-time indie author, working with Tee was an absolute game-changer. Her feedback was instrumental in not only getting my manuscript on the right track but also in equipping me with guidance I can carry forward into future projects. She didn’t just provide editing notes, but she offered insights, tools, and explanations that deepened my understanding of the craft and the publishing process. Tee's keen eye for detail, supportive approach, and thorough understanding of industry standar...

I am so thankful for George! He is patient, understanding, a great communicator, and above all else a true professional. His enviable artistic skills brought my characters to life in a way I couldn't ever have imagined. I was so pleased that I literally opened up his drafts on my laptop and kept them open all day every day just so I could glance at them when I got a break. I cannot recommend George enough; he is the real deal. You will not be sorry.

I couldn't have asked for a better creative partner than Wayne Oram. Realizing this was my first children's book, Wayne was exceptionally patient with me throughout this journey. What's more, he shared valuable insights along the way that brought out the best in my writing. When it comes to illustrators, few can do what Wayne does. His ability to bring characters to life is truly impressive. His whimsical drawings create a special kind of magic you can almost feel as your eyes explore each...

I've worked with several editors on previous books, and Kevin has proved to be the best ever. He did an exceptional job for me and I can't say enough about his editing skills, genre knowledge and insights. He is a talented editor who sees the big picture while being able to find the seemingly inconsequential details that can make or break a great book. With degrees in English Lit. and several years of writing experience, I still missed a mistake as basic as changing (by one letter), the last...

Working with Sarah on my manuscript was an exceptional experience. Her editorial expertise brought clarity, flow, and polish to the work—from refining grammar and syntax to enhancing transitions and sharpening key ideas. Her comments were insightful and respectful of my intent, offering thoughtful suggestions that elevated the manuscript without compromising its voice. I was also grateful for the thorough plagiarism check, which confirmed the originality of the content and gave me added confi...

It was a pleasure to work with Sophia on this project. She completed a manuscript assessment for my novel, and her feedback was invaluable. The assessment was thoughtful, detailed, and full of insights that instantly resonated — everything seemed to click into place. Sophia delivered the report ahead of the agreed deadline and kept me updated throughout the process. She was generous with both her time and expertise, and I truly appreciated her care and clarity. I would absolutely recommend So...

Christina delivered an excellent edit of my memoir. Her comments were precise, constructive, and consistently improved the clarity and rhythm of the writing. She respected the tone and intent of the work and offered suggestions that strengthened it without imposing her own voice. Communication was reliable and the process was handled professionally from start to finish. I’m very pleased with the result and would recommend her without hesitation.
