It was an absolute pleasure to work with Alex on my book cover. The concept he developed really captured the vision I had for my novel. Alex was responsive to my feedback, and was patient as I found my way around the different publishing platforms (and hence the required formats for the cover). I am delighted with the final product. Thanks Alex!

Claire was a delight to work with. She was knowledgeable, prompt, and thorough. It was easy to gain confidence in her work very quickly because of her timely communication and the samples she sent early on. This was an investment for me, as a first time author and one-woman business, and it was well worth the money. My book is a much better product because of Claire's help. She also explained things to me and answered all of my questions. She saved me time by reorganizing my chapters after I ...

Erin delivered beyond what I expected out of our engagement on so many levels. Firstly, she instantly recognized what I was trying to achieve with a very complex story structure. Then, she offered me a call to really understand my goals with my project, and later guided me on the kind of engagement needed to achieve my goals. When she delivered the outcome of our engagement, it was clear that she'd really immersed herself into the work, arming herself by (re)reading the works of masters whose...

Abbie was such a pleasure to work with: thorough, communicative, prompt, and so kind. Her feedback was incredibly clear with some really astute observations and recommendations that absolutely have improved the quality of my manuscript. Her kind works and clear passion for the work definitely gave me a boost in confidence and made me excited to get stuck back into making the necessary tweaks. Her experience in the industry was incredibly valuable also, giving me fantastic advice that I had no...

Kate's the best. I more than recommend her as an editor - if your story needs help, I implore you to reach out to her. She is skilled, perceptive and thoughtful at every level of the collaboration. From big-picture structural insights to tiny inconsistencies others would miss, she's on it. Her feedback was consistently spot-on, insightful, and actionable, and I ended up incorporating a majority of her suggestions. She helped make the book stronger in ways I never anticipated. KAte was also...

It was a joy to work with Evelina. She is a gifted designer, highly professional, and very responsive to my ideas. This is the ideal design partnership, where we speak the same language and can communicate a shared vision. However, it's then that the designer, Evelina, takes it to the next level, delighting and surprising. My book is a business book about the intersection of AI and Neurodiversity. As such, it's not a light read, but Evelina's design has ensured it is contemporary, elegant, an...

Working with Adam was a joy! He understood my story's mission and provided suggestions that significantly enhanced my manuscript. His creativity inspired me, and I was able to have lots of fun reworking jokes while adding depth to my characters and plot. Can't wait to work with him again!

Beau is amazing! My story is only in the beginning phase and Beau has been able to provide me with so much feedback and insight. I’ve been able to talk through my plot and the story development and end up with more material to work with. My brain fog has been lifted thanks to Beau’s in-depth review and my excitement has been renewed just from hearing Beau’s interest and enthusiasm around the story. Can’t wait to collaborate with them again and I couldn’t recommend Beau enough.

Asya Is a true professional that I love to work with. She makes me feel like we are on a joint venture to get a perfect product to market. This is my third book with Asya and she had always delivered an exceptional finished product. I have already posted a new job and only selected her as the professional to work with. I will wait however long it take to make sure she is the only one doing my front cover design and interior page designs. Thank you I appreciate you. Miguel

Julia was thorough and professional, and provided a range of customised options that delivered on the brief. I was soon able to pick a direction and final design output that was perfect for my book, and Julia was engaged and responsive for the entire process. Thanks for making my book come to life!

Her effort stands out for its compassion and care in handling difficult material. She approached the subject with a genuine sense of empathy, taking the time to understand the emotional weight of the story and the people behind it. Her ability to grapple with the way the book connects with the audience was extremely valuable, nothing feels forced or exploitative, and the harder moments are treated with honesty and respect. Her ability to relate to complex, military jargonesse, and emotion...

I worked with Maxwell to prepare a non-fiction book proposal. I am very happy with the collaboration and look forward to working with Maxwell again as this project develops. 1. Maxwell's feedback on my proposal was thorough, thoughtful, and clear. I appreciated that Maxwell has extensive experience reading and preparing book proposals and was able to explain why certain elements didn't work and suggest concrete examples of what would work better. 2. In addition to the specifics of my book p...

Nicola was SO wonderful to work with! She very quickly responded to me, set a finish date, and finished *before* said date, which was wonderful. But most importantly, she sent me the most thoughtful notes that dove into plot, structure, character development, age range, marketability, and more. Everything I needed to know to help me make it the best it can possibly be! She even shared which house she thought it could be the best fit for, which I so appreciated. And she was just so lovely with...

Mary Ann is such a pleasure to work with. She's highly professional, always on time, and does such beautiful work. I'm so happy with all of the book covers that she's created for me, and I'll definitely be using her services again to complete my series. Thank you so much, Mary Ann! 😊

Wow..... With so many impressive, highly experienced and no doubt capable professionals available on Reedsy I found it more than a little challenging to guess/decide who would be the best person to collaborate with and I will be forever grateful that due to luck, intuition or perhaps good old serendipity, I chose Emma and she was available when I needed her most. I had already submitted my MS, (and had it rejected or ignored by) a number of Agents before turning to Reedsy and while I was hopi...
