Bryn was amazing to work with! She was professional, providing thoughtful and on point developmental and copy edits to help me push my project to its best! I highly recommend Bryn, and I hope to work with her again on my next book!

Kate copyedited my debut novel, and I could not be more pleased with the experience or the result. My publisher requires authors on its imprint to arrange their own copyediting, so I came to Reedsy looking for someone with real literary experience — and Kate delivered on every count. She was a clear, prompt communicator from start to finish, and when her schedule unexpectedly opened up, she offered to begin the project early. Her editing was thorough and complete, and here is the measure of h...

Jenny was absolutely amazing with my manuscript. She did an incredible job on my proofread and also helped me clean up unclear pieces of my memoir. I really enjoyed learning from Jenny and getting her perspective. I would hire her again in a heartbeat for proofreading, copyediting etc. She's the best!

Working with Rich on my book was one of the best decisions I made as a first-time author. From the very beginning, he took the time to understand my vision and brought it to life with incredible creativity, care, and attention to detail. The story is deeply personal to me, and Rich captured every emotion, character, and message more beautifully than I could have imagined. His illustrations added depth and warmth to the story while helping bring Luna's journey to life in a way that resonates ...

I cannot express how fantastic, Samantha is! From the very beginning, I knew she was the right person from the job when she said she wanted to read my manuscript. Out of all of the cover designers I had talked to she was the ONLY one who offered to read the book for inspiration. All of our meetings were timely and she provided an abundant of information and resources to guide me through the process. Even when I messed up on my end she was very patient and made the necessary fixes. I cannot w...

Marta was absolutely amazing. Incredible editor, went above and beyond what I could have hoped for.

I find it ironic that I'm at a loss for words about the person who brings out the best in mine. The truth is, I’ve been putting this off for weeks because I wanted my review of Vicky to do for her what she does for me; and that's shine. Her editing skills are only a fraction of the value she has added to my project. Through Vicky's guidance and honest feedback, every round of revisions has consistently produced stronger work. She effortlessly understood the tone and vision for my story and of...

We are first-time authors and have never worked with an illustrator before, so we honestly weren't sure what to expect or even what we were supposed to do throughout the process. From the very beginning, Kateryna was incredibly patient, professional and understanding. She took the time to answer all of our questions and worked with us until the test illustration was what we hoped for. Everything was completed in a very timely manner and we are excited to continue working with her on our fi...

Louise was an excellent proofreader and a pleasure to work with. She brought a sharp eye for detail, strong consistency across a complex fantasy–science fiction manuscript, and a clear respect for the author’s voice and world-building. She handled continuity, formatting questions, and stylistic consistency with care, and her communication was timely, thoughtful, and professional throughout the process. When she raised questions, they were always precise and helpful, and she never imposed cha...

Working with Cynthia has been one of the most rewarding parts of my writing journey. She brought clarity, precision, and genuine insight to every stage of the edit. Her developmental feedback strengthened the structure and emotional core of my story, and her line edits elevated the prose in ways I could feel immediately. She has an incredible gift for seeing both the big-picture narrative and the fine-grained details that make a scene sing. What impressed me most was her ability to understan...

Robert truly went above and beyond for my project. He fixed up my grammar and punctuation, but also gave tons of general feedback in terms of storyline, plot, my characters, etc, which he did not need to do, but I really, really appreciated it. He gave me insight to new perspectives not just from an editor, but from a reader, as well. If you choose him for your project, you will not regret it.

This is the fifth project I've worked with Victoria on and she's just wonderful. I really enjoy working with her. She's professional, helpful, timely, and fun to work with. Her feedback is valuable and well thought out. I highly recommend her!

Jessica did an absolutely phenomenal job with the soft copyediting phase of my manuscript, Going Beyond. As an independent author, I wanted to ensure my sentence flow and grammar were highly polished while keeping my authentic human voice and personal stories completely intact. Jessica achieved this balance perfectly. She has a meticulous eye for detail, structural consistency, and tone. She was incredibly professional, highly organized, and always encouraging throughout our collaboration. He...

Michael is the copilot you want for your book. He’s the Goose to your Maverick. What a wonderful companion to have in this incredibly vast space of editing. I believe him to be sincere and he took his time on the subject matter and heart of my story. There is a soul behind the words we write and Michael catches the essence with a grace and knowledge only few possess. Honestly time is the greatest gift you can give someone. Even if we pay for it, he didn’t hurry through my story. I really enjo...

Working with Laura was an excellent experience. She demonstrated a keen eye, great sensitivity, and strong technical mastery. I wholeheartedly recommend her work.
