Ragav did an outstanding job editing my book. He is incredibly articulate, and his deep industry knowledge was evident in every edit he made. Beyond the technical work, our telephone conversations were highly productive and felt very sincere. His recommendations were constructive and non-judgmental, providing the encouragement I needed to take my writing to the next level. Ragav is a wonderful person whose kindness shines through in both his written comments and his voice. I will definitely b...

I want to express my sincere gratitude to Charles for his excellent work in helping to revise my manuscript. His qualities are many: He was very friendly and personal, which made the communication enjoyable. Of course, his editorial expertise was key to the task at hand. I learned much about writing from him. His suggestions were always relevant, helpful, and challenging too! The memos and document exchanges were very timely, which allowed me to stay on schedule. Charles expressed a keen inte...

I will use Kieron's services again without hesitation.

I wanted a cover that depicted a specific scene from my science fiction novel, like an old mass market paperback. I knew a generic cover wouldn't cut it. I needed an artist, not just a designer. And with Alex, I got an artist. I sent him descriptions of the "shot", the characters, the setting. So much detail I was worried about information overload. Alex calmly took it all in, sorted it out, thought about it for a while, sent some sketches, we talked, he sent some more. And after a little mor...

My choice of Melissa for my Developmental Editor could not have been more perfect for my debut novel! I am so impressed by her ability to understand the concept of the story but to also "hear" my voice and then apply what she understands to the editing. I am totally in line with her suggestions and am having a good time expanding the story to include them. I think it will be a much better "read" with these revisions. She has been a tremendous asset to my project and I look forward to the poss...

I had the pleasure of working with Saranne again for the final edit of Stanley Tails: A Rescue Dog’s Adventures – Book 1, and I could not be happier with the experience. Saranne did a beautiful job preparing the manuscript for the next stage of the publishing process and for my illustrator. Her editing is thoughtful, perceptive, and respectful of the author’s voice. She has a wonderful ability to recognize what a story needs while still allowing it to remain unmistakably the writer’s own. W...

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...

Holly provided a developmental edit on my 68,000-word memoir. She delivered a thorough editorial letter plus over 100 inline comments, but what impressed me most was how deeply she engaged with the material. She didn't just fix things, she helped me understand what the book was actually about. Her structural feedback was specific and actionable: where to open, what to move, which characters needed more presence. She identified tense inconsistencies I'd been blind to and gave me grammar lesso...

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!

Reading through Rachel's changes, suggestions and comments was like receiving a masterclass in line editing. If/when I write another book, I will ask her to be on the team. Her edits brought clarity while retaining my voice. Her precision was such that when I accepted an edit in track changes mode, it came with perfect formatting. Her guidance on attributions and sources spared me from mistakes I otherwise would have made. Rachel's touch has elevated the book to a more polished--and easily re...

Elena is a PR genius! She completely transformed our outreach and put together a stunning PR kit that captured our brand perfectly. Working with her was seamless, effective, and honestly, amazing. She is the absolute best at what she does. Her outreach strategy was precise, thoughtful, and yielded fantastic results. Her professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for her work are unparalleled. If you have the chance to hire Elena, take it—she is simply the best!

Working with Conrad was an outstanding experience from start to finish. He did far more than simply edit my manuscript—he helped me uncover more of the stories I was trying to tell. His feedback was thoughtful, insightful, and consistently pushed me to dig deeper into my characters, themes, and emotional moments without ever changing my voice as a writer. What I appreciated most was his encouragement throughout the process. Every round of edits left me feeling more motivated and more confide...

Lucia took care of my book! From the very beginning, she has been a standout. She loved what I wrote and didn't hesitate to extend her expertise right way. After getting my edits back, it was exactly what I was looking for. For a first time author, she helped with advice and small suggestions to better the story. Would absolutely hire her again.

Meredith is a consummate professional with critical eye for tiny punctuation, spelling and space errors that can really devastate a text. She caught so so many I never would have seen. I especially valued the positive feedback too!

I had a very positive experience working with Cathy. Her feedback was thoughtful, careful, and genuinely improved the clarity and structure of my manuscript. She was especially strong at identifying repetition and helping me tighten the work without losing my voice or the emotional tone of the book. Communication was clear and respectful throughout the process, and her notes showed real engagement with the material rather than surface-level edits. I always felt that the manuscript was being h...
