This is my first childrens book, and David was amazing to work with from start to finish, his experience really was so valuable to me and made the whole project so smooth and effortless. He really understood my vision and delivered the most beautiful and alive illustrations for my book. He has a great ability to create characters and give so much expression and personality to them. I plan on doing a series of these and will be for sure using him again. I highly recommend him!

Misha is a true professional and wonderful to work with. Her copyedits are extremely thorough, catching not only grammar and spelling errors but also inconsistencies, logical errors, and confusing prose. Her edits strengthened my work and inspired me to make adjustments and clarifications I otherwise would not have thought of. I highly recommend working with her and will do so again if I have the opportunity.

What a great experience this was! As a first-time author, it far exceeded my expectations. I didn’t know what to expect, or just how much her guidance would elevate my manuscript. She led me through the process with kindness and skill—not only helping improve the book itself, but helping me grow as a writer. She genuinely cared about both my story and my success as an author. Highly recommended.

As a first-time author, I wasn't even really sure what I needed. A proofreader? A content editor? Joy has guided me from the very beginning, offering invaluable information and feedback, sharing her own experiences with the industry, too. It's been a wonderful experience and I am so happy I found Joy.

Working with Stefanie was an absolute dream from start to finish. She is incredibly responsive, collaborative, and thoughtful in her approach, and brought so much creativity and originality to the project. What stood out most was her ability to take the vision and elevate it beyond what I had imagined, adding her own ideas in ways that made the story richer and more engaging. Every step of the process felt seamless, and her communication made it easy and enjoyable to work together. I’m genu...

Working with Olga on the Spanish translation of The Anxious Girls’ Guide: Finding Your Calm and the Inner Calm Planner was a truly rewarding experience which I am sincerely grateful for. Olga brought genuine clinical intelligence to a complex project. The Tourist vs. Roommate anxiety framework required more than linguistic skill — it required real clinical understanding — and Olga demonstrated that from the very first sample page. Framework terminology, technique names, and the warm teen-fri...

Karolina was a pleasure to work with throughout the project. She was thoughtful, professional, and incredibly patient while helping bring my project together. Communication was always clear, she was very receptive to feedback and revisions, and she helped navigate the layout and design process with great care and attention to detail. The project itself evolved quite a bit as it developed, and Karolina was always flexible and supportive throughout. I really appreciated her collaborative approa...

I have really enjoyed working with Laura. The feedback I received was extremely detailed, insightful and constructive, while also being kind and encouraging. Her critique gave me a far clearer understanding of picture book structure and the editing process, as well as valuable direction on how to strengthen my current manuscript. Laura was incredibly responsive throughout the process, with fast replies, regular updates and thoughtful communication which made me feel very reassured as someone...

Rennie was an outstanding copyeditor for my 70,000-word memoir. From the get-go, she impressed me. She responded to my quote request quickly with a deeply thoughtful reply that made clear she was genuinely interested in the project. Her communication throughout the project was excellent and she completed the work several days early. In addition to thorough copyediting of the manuscript, she pointed out a few key inconsistencies. The manuscript had gone through developmental edits, and I was u...

Phillip was a real pleasure to work with. He was endlessly patient with us as we navigated our way through doing a job like this for the first time. His advice was spot on. The final result looks terrific. The author is thrilled.

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!

Marta was a pleasure to work with throughout the process. She was always responsive and quickly responded to and implemented my feedback as we worked through each step of the process, while also applying her expertise and offering guidance on the design direction. If you're considering working with Marta, don't hesitate to submit a request!

Jamie went above and beyond! I am looking forward to working together with her again in the future.

Robin provided clear, productive editing for my upcoming book and I would work with her again. She provided insight into where I could add clarity, but also outlined where the book had significant impact. Thank you Ronin! I appreciate you helping me get this important book to a point where it can now be published. I'm grateful. Keep up the incredible work!

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...
