Steven was great! He completed revamped my author website in preparation for my new book release. He was very responsive and patient with all of my questions regarding the new format! I highly recommend his services!

I feel so lucky to have found Carolyn as my editor! Not only did she help to shape my book into something proud of, but her process felt truly collaborative and encouraging. How she characterized my voice was exactly how I wanted it to come across. I appreciate Carolyn's ability to keep my style alive while also making the book polished and powerful! If you are in need of a skilled editor who genuinely cares about you and your work, look no further.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Editor — Above and Beyond Every Step of the Way Working with Patricia has been one of the highlights of my publishing journey. She went truly above and beyond in every aspect of the editing process. Not only was she incredibly thorough and thoughtful, but she was deeply involved from beginning to end. She read my manuscript more times than I ever expected an editor would — and each pass brought new insights, clarity, and improvements that elevated the entire book. Pat...

The magic begins when Zoe's pen touches a blank page. Her imagination overflows, and her artwork embodies who she is: heartwarming, original, stylish, creative, imaginative, and caring. I can't say enough about Zoe's high standard of excellence. She has illustrated two children's books for me, and both have exceeded my expectations. This time, she edited the books to match my new logo, made another small tweak, and delivered them in new, professional formats. She takes her work seriously, and...

Working with Abbie Greaes has been nothing short of transformative. If you’re serious about elevating your manuscript — not just polishing it, but truly levelling up as a writer — Abbie is an exceptional partner in that process. Her editorial report and in-line manuscript notes didn’t just highlight areas for improvement — they fundamentally shifted how I think about story, character, and craft. The depth of her insight is extraordinary, but what truly sets Abbie apart is how she delivers it...

Taryn is fantastic! She’s incredibly professional, helpful, and fully committed to the project. She offered me valuable advice, was always responsive, happy to make changes, and made the whole process seamless and enjoyable. Highly recommended! Thanks Taryn :)

Excellent! Eli provided helpful advice and suggestions in a most positive way. Highly recommend him to everyone!

Working with Kelly was one of the best decisions I made for my book. I had already run my manuscript through multiple editing programs and thought it was in pretty good shape, but Kelly still found countless errors, inconsistencies, and opportunities for improvement that I had completely missed. The book read and flowed so much better after her improvements. What impressed me most was how meticulous and thorough she was throughout the entire process. Not only did she carefully edit the manu...

Working with Cassandra was an absolute joy! She brought so much care, attentiveness, and professionalism to every step of the process. I felt truly seen and supported throughout, and the quality of her work speaks for itself. I can’t recommend her enough - she made something deeply personal even more powerful, and I’ll always be grateful for that!

When we found ourselves in a pickle and needed a job turned around fast and well, Grainne saved the day! Her meticulous work—even while working with a tight timeline—was truly impressive. Great communication, a keen eye, and the utmost professionalism are why we look forward to working with Grainne again and again on future projects.

Sophie was an absolute joy to work with. She was very adept at seeing where my story could be clearer and what was working and what wasn't. I really enjoyed refining my writing by using Sophie's suggestions. She was able to see some traps I had fallen into through using basic language and where the storyline and plot could make more sense. I would definitely use Sophie again, she is kind, professional and thorough.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Outstanding Editor – Professional, Timely, and Insightful I had the pleasure of working with George H on my book Courage, Tears, and The Glory, and I couldn’t be more satisfied. He delivered everything right on schedule with the utmost professionalism. His editing was thoughtful, detailed, and respectful of the story's voice and message. George also offered helpful structural suggestions, refined the narrative flow, and guided me through some crucial decisions about chapter forma...

Working with Frances was one of the best decisions I made for my manuscript. From the beginning, she gave me honest, constructive feedback that really pushed me as a writer, which was exactly what I needed. Her notes were thoughtful and clear, and she never just pointed out what wasn’t working without explaining why, in a way that clicked for me. She was responsive, professional, and easy to communicate with throughout the process. I felt very supported and could tell she genuinely loves what...

I'm the queen of the typos, have a problem with ....s and ,s, and Jennifer had all the right answers in her red pen. She was easy to work with and responsive. I couldn't be happier with her work product and her work ethic. I enjoyed working with her from my nervously handing over my book to her handing it back with clear, focused edits.

I discovered Oksana when I watched the live Reedsy’s “Anatomy of a Great Scene” presentation on April 9, 2025. It was amazing and I highly recommend anyone interested in developmental editing for their project to check out the recording! When I first saw her, I immediately knew she was someone my project needed. Prior to that, I didn’t even know what a Developmental Editor or a scene was! And I was right: she was the perfect match for my project! In addition to being an amazing combinati...
