I could not recommend Martha highly enough. I came to her with a chaotic passion project and not much understanding of the industry or editorial process, and she went above and beyond in helping me understand exactly what my novel needed. The editorial assessment she produced was exceptionally thorough, insightful, and delivered on time, offering great value for money. What stood out most was how deeply Martha engaged with the work. She cared about my book’s strengths, its potential, and its...

I truly enjoyed working with Elizabeth. She understood the book. She identified many of the exact areas I had been uncertain about. She had read the entire manuscript closely and thoughtfully. As a beginner writer, I felt she did more than just edit the manuscript. She helped me see what was already working, what was missing, and what kind of book I really wanted to write. That is a tremendous insight that she gave me. She also provided a detailed letter to my specific questions about the...

If you're looking for an amazing proofreader who will go above beyond for you, look no further. Lee is hands down the best there is. He's a pleasure to collaborate with, has an eye for detail and delivers on time. I can't recommend him highly enough. Thanks Lee!

Kathy was great--her thoughtfulness and feedback went above and beyond. I felt like she was truly invested in the project and saw its potential. her suggestions for rewrites were spot on and very constructive. I would work with her again in a heartbeat and will once the rewrites are complete.

Working with Mark Karis on Desire and Wonder was an extraordinary experience, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. This was not a simple project. Desire and Wonder is a very large work—nearly 1,500 pages—which ultimately had to be presented as a three-volume series. From the beginning, Mark approached both the practical complexity of the project and the character of the work itself with remarkable intelligence, patience, care, and professionalism. What impressed me most was that Mark n...

I loved working with Victoria. Collaborating with her was a blast. She absolutely "got" my vision for the project, and everyone who has seen the cover has been blown away. I would absolutely hire her again.

William is a skilled and insightful editor. His editorial assessment of my novel-in-progress has helped pave the direction for my revision process. He is friendly and professional. Sensitive in his approach to my work, his feedback was encouraging, as well as pointed about where there were weaknesses. His knowledge about structure, POV, and how to develop characters and strengthen plot were invaluable. He has a wealth of experience as an editor and it shows. I would definitely hire William ag...

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...

I congratulate myself for hiring Lisa to write an editorial assessment of my self-help manuscript for fellow people with disabilities. My interaction with her were professional and warm. As part of her recommendations, she confirmed some of my instincts about what might have to be reworked, and some new aspects that I couldn't see for having been so close to my work for a long time, This helped me decide that teaming up with an editor who has more distance from it, and all the writing and pub...

Working with Andy was an exceptional experience from start to finish. From our first Zoom call, he took the time to truly understand the scope of my project while patiently answering all of my questions. His communication throughout the entire process was outstanding. It was always prompt, clear, and professional. I never felt unsure about where things stood, which made the entire experience smooth and stress-free. Andy is not only highly skilled at what he does, but he also brings a level ...

Reece-Alexander Norris-Paterson or The Commander of the Northern Armies, as I call him, is a man of many names and phenomenal talent. He designed the cover of my debut novel and the result was better than anything I could have ever imagined. I don’t know what kind of magic he used, but bless him, for he reached into my mind, took out my dream cover and brought it to life, while also somehow making it a million times better. The commander completed the project on time and was willing to revise...

She is a true professional and master of her craft. The project we worked on was very ambitious and Alexandra added huge value with a really fast turnaround.

Working with Sakshi was an incredible experience from start to finish. She is exceptionally talented, professional, and patient. Throughout the project, I made numerous requests and scope adjustments, and she handled every change with grace, flexibility, and a positive attitude. Her creativity brought my vision to life in ways I couldn’t have imagined, and she was consistently responsive, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. I truly felt supported through the entire process. I highly recommend ...

Working with Rannia was an exceptional experience from start to finish. She brought both creative sensitivity and technical precision to the design of Unchosen, translating a concept-driven manuscript into a cohesive visual identity across cover and interior. Her communication was clear, prompt, and professional throughout the process. She handled revisions thoughtfully, incorporated feedback carefully, and navigated the technical complexities of KDP formatting with confidence and expertise....

Sarah is an exceptional editor with a thorough understanding of how to take a manuscript to the next level. I knew from our first interaction that she was a consummate professional as she set the tone for our working relationship with kindness and efficiency. She delivered her suggestions and advice promptly with an obvious eye for detail and care . She just gets it! I am so pleased to have found an editor that is reliable and insightful. I highly recommend Sarah.
