This is my second book with David, and once again his editing is exceptional. For developmental editing, his feedback is always spot-on, thoughtful, honest, and encouraging. He clearly understands the voice of the story, and his insightful suggestions provided a clear roadmap for revisions. In copy editing and line editing, his meticulous attention to details combined with his thoughtful push for more clarity and consistency has beautifully elevated the book. I look forward to working with hi...

I had a great experience working with Joan! Prior to our collaboration, she took time to understand exactly what I was looking for within editing and priced accordingly. I found her process, suggestions, and edits very easy to follow and valuable. I will definitely be working with her again!

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.

Working with Hannah was incredible. She delivered the developmental edit ahead of schedule, was always available for my questions and brought out the best in my manuscript. Her suggestions sparked my curiosity, leading me to see my charcters and scenes in a new light-even the few I needed to discard. I've worked with an editor before, but Hannah's guidance was and is invaluable. I would recommend her one thousand percent!

Working with Tina has been one of the most meaningful and transformative parts of my publishing journey. She is that rare kind of editor who brings equal parts mastery, intuition, and genuine care to every page. Her feedback was never just technical — it was clarifying, grounding, and deeply attuned to the heart of the work. I felt seen, supported, and sharpened in all the right ways. Tina doesn’t simply polish a manuscript; she elevates it. She listens for the soul of the book, protects its...

I decided to work with Lindsey for a full developmental edit of my historical fiction book and I could not be happier with her feedback and direction. She is a true professional and very experienced in the industry, while also a coach and mentor. She took a very thoughtful approach to giving feedback while also pointing out the major revision elements and providing examples that I know will help me take my book to the next level. While I've previously authored two guidebooks and went through ...

Christina was an outstanding partner in bringing my website to life. I came to her with a vision — but not much artistic vocabulary to describe it. She quickly translated ideas into thoughtful prototypes that captured exactly what I was hoping for, often before I could fully articulate it myself. Each iteration was clear, elegant, and aligned with the tone of my book. What impressed me most was her responsiveness and flexibility. When I suggested changes or refinements, she implemented them...

Working with Gary was an absolute game changer in my project. His attention to small mistakes were incredibly helpful for my project to feel smooth and nicer to read. He was incredibly supportive of my project and I am super happy to have worked with Gary and would definitely recommend and would love to work with on future projects.

Working with Svitlana was amazing!! She took my cover and elevated it just how I imagined it. She really cares about you and your vision.

Without any hesitation, I would highly recommend Bo to anyone in need of an excellent proofreader. Bo's methodical proofreading of my manuscript before it went to publication, his careful and meticulous attention to detail, and his thoughtful review made him an invaluable second pair of eyes. His thoroughness in catching nuances and his prompt turn-around time were greatly appreciated and played a crucial role in ensuring the manuscript was polished and ready for publication. Much appreciat...

Jenna was a wonderful editor. Her suggestions were concrete and positive and they gave me so much to work with to make my book better. I met with her for a half hour about the first half of my book, and plan to meet again for another half hour about my second half. The notes were perceptive and useful. I am so glad I did this with her!

It was a true pleasure collaborating with Lucy on the proofreading of my first spy thriller. She delivered outstanding work with meticulous attention to detail and went above and beyond her role—helping me troubleshoot issues with a program I wasn’t familiar with. Lucy was consistently available, responded promptly to my messages, and always met deadlines. Her professionalism, dedication, and commitment are beyond question. Thank you, Lucy, for your exceptional contribution.

Patricia is a wonderful translator and individual; I truly enjoy collaborating with her, and for sure I will work with her again

Working with Claire has been an incredible experience. She brought such care, insight, and attention to detail to my manuscript, and her feedback was both constructive and encouraging. Claire has a real gift for helping an author bring out the best in their work while ensuring clarity, flow, and consistency. Her communication was always clear and timely, and she went above and beyond to make sure the editing process felt smooth and collaborative. I felt fully supported every step of the way,...

Working with Cynthia has been an exceptional experience. She combined a sharp editorial eye with genuine care for my project. Her revisions made my manuscript feel more robust, polished, and true to my vision. She not only strengthened the structure and flow of the work but also provided clear, thoughtful guidance on formatting and consistency, which will make the final book much stronger. Cynthia is professional, detail-oriented, and supportive throughout the process. She balanced encourage...
