As a writer, our stories are precious to us. Reaching out to someone to bring that to life can be difficult for the artist. We have expectations, visions already in place. Rachel not only met my vision, but she exceeded it. These are not just words. She is extremely talented and a joy to work with. I would not only recommend her to everyone and anyone, but also come back again and again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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...

It's the second time I've worked with Rozi - she did an amazing copy-edit and polished the manuscript to standards. I'm really happy with the result and look forward collaboration with her a third time.

Meredith is amazing! Plain and simple! This was my first time using reedsy so I was a little hesitant. But Meredith put all my worries to rest. She answered every single one of my questions and got to work on my little Novelette and I would say she over delivered. The feedback was spot on, and with her copy editing and proofreading it couldn't have come out any better. My novelette now looks like a professional work of art. I seriously cannot thank her enough for what she's done for me. 5 sta...

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...

As a debut author launching my first website, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Maite brought real care and intuition to the process, with a strong understanding of story, tone, and emotional world-building — not just design. She created a site that feels like a genuine invitation into a story still unfolding, balancing atmosphere and clarity beautifully. Thoughtful, collaborative, and quiet confidence-building, she was the perfect partner to help mark the beginning of my author...

I can't say enough good things about Catherine. She took my messy first draft that was more stream of consciousness than a manuscript and transformed it into a book I am genuinely proud of. She has an exceptional ability to preserve an author's voice while bringing clarity, structure, and flow to the writing. Throughout the process, she was thoughtful, insightful, encouraging, and incredibly professional. I truly couldn't have asked for a better editor, and I wouldn't trust my work with anyon...

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...

Lucy was an absolute delight to work with for a developmental edit of my novel! She was a true professional in every aspect of the project - from communication, edits, to quality of work delivered. I was nervous about my first time working with an editor but it could not have been easier. Lucy clearly communicated what was to be expected and when. The notes she provided through her edit were thoughtful, insightful, and presented in a way that prevented me from getting overwhelmed. Her feedbac...

I’ve had so much fun collaborating with Kristen. Not only has she championed my novel as if it were her own, she’s also gone above and beyond to ensure it’s in the best possible shape for publication. Her feedback has been super helpful, and I’m already looking forward to working with her again in the future :) I’d definitely recommend her to any author looking for someone who approaches their book with passion, care and professionalism.

Working with Dan was an excellent experience from start to finish. He was fast, communicative and clear in his feedback. He was open to meetings and easy to collaborate with. What stood out most was his attention to detail and deep knowledge of the genre. He caught niche science fiction specific details that a general editor would have missed entirely, which made all the difference for this manuscript. His notes were thorough and thoughtful. He always explained the reasoning behind each sugge...

Collette's work on my book interior went way beyond my expectations! It is such a beautiful book thanks to her work. It's better than I imagined it could be. She was great to work with. I'm definitely going to use her for more books in the future.

I've worked with developmental editors before, but nothing like Hannah. She invested herself in my story, and the letter and manuscript she gave me had a perfect scaffolding for everything I could change and add. She wasn't a critic; she was a director, pulling out my talents, telling me when she wanted more, and politely marking areas for quick correction. She gave me confidence in what I was doing well and encouragement to dispel a lot of my personal doubts. I'm certain that if I follow her...

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

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!
