What a wonderful experience. Jenna was really helpful in getting my query letter and elements of my Synopsis ready for prime time. I will work with her on any project in the future.

I had an absolutely fantastic experience working with Phillip Dannels on my book cover! I was initially drawn to Phillip’s art style and the quality of work in his portfolio, especially his previous book covers. From start to finish, he was a great and responsive communicator and truly a wonderful collaborator. What really set Phillip apart was the way he worked specific details from my story into the different layers of the cover, making the artwork feel deeply connected to my book. Every ti...

Working with Lorna was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She brought a warm, encouraging energy to the entire process. Her proofreading was meticulous and thorough — she caught everything — but what truly set her apart was how she communicated. She was prompt, kind, and a genuine delight to work with. I never felt like just another project; I felt supported. If you're looking for a proofreader who combines sharp eyes with a wonderful collaborative spirit, Lorna is your person. I woul...

Peter was excellent to work with throughout the editorial process for Governance by Design. He presented as a professional, thoughtful and communicative with brought a high level of editorial expertise to the project process. One of the things I appreciated most was his ability to strengthen clarity, flow, structure, and readability while still preserving my authentic voice and the deeper themes woven throughout the book. The subject matter often involved complex ideas around governance, le...

Amber is phenomenal at what she does! Her communication was timely and thorough from beginning to end. I went with her because of how much value/personalized feedback she offered to me on my chapter sample before we even began working together. She clearly got the heart and soul of my book. We got to have two calls together, and I can't imagine my book getting to the level of quality its now at without her development editing report and extensive feedback. I will work with her again in a hear...

I absolutely loved working with Joanna, it is my first book and she was incredibly helpful guiding me through the process. Once I'm finished with the revisions I will be seeking her advice again as a Copyeditor. Highly recommend

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...

Lisa is amazing and it was the easiest decision to have her do the cover for my second book after she did the first. Highly recommend!

My experience with Dan was exceptional and outstanding in every way. He helped me transform my rough manuscript into a much more polished, coherent and commercial product. His insights and comments were very helpful and productive. He knows how a story should be told and his organizational and formatting skills are readily apparent. He is able to develop a great working relationship that is very collaborative and his communication skills are highly developed. I couldn't be more satisfied with...

I'm not really a reviewer. But a couple of things need to be said. I came to Tom for a line-edit and an editorial assessment on my debut thriller. What I got was that — and to my own surprise, much more. The obvious part: his read was sharp, honest, and useful at every level, from individual word choices and verbal tics I'd stopped being able to see, all the way up to structure, pacing, and how to build an antagonist. Nothing was vague. Every note was something I could actually act on. Bu...

My initial thoughts after receiving Miriam's feedback on my query package? Wow. The entire experience was so much more than I expected. She went above and beyond to make my query letter shine. I deeply appreciated her editorial suggestions and sharp storytelling instinct, which helped me sharpen my manuscript far beyond the first 50 pages. She's direct and honest, but also supportive and encouraging. I felt like she grasped the entire project and gave comprehensive feedback across all piece...

Dan has provided me excellent feedback! His recommendations were all thoughtful and highly useful in working towards a final edit. He was fully invested in the story and brought a level of enthusiasm that was highly motivating. He is an easy communicator with a very supportive and helpful manner. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a good editor for a non-fiction work.

Joy was amazing to work on. She gave me clear advice that's going to make my novel a lot better. She also completed the project early, and checked in with me multiple times during the process.

Working with Shelley over the years has been a transformative experience. I've worked with her on two novels and keep returning. Her editorial feedback was incisive, thoughtful, and always in service of the story. She brought a rare combination of technical precision and deep narrative intuition, helping me strengthen the emotional core of the manuscript, characterisation and tightening the pacing . Her insights into character development, voice, and thematic depth were invaluable, and her re...

Excellent to work with! Will work with her again in the future if the opportunity arises.
