Working with Eva on the cover of Every Step of the Way was an amazing experience. She is incredibly creative and gave a face to my book, taking all of my ideas into account so that together we created something truly beautiful. She was kind, communicative, and incredibly patient throughout the process. I am so thankful we crossed paths—she treated my novel with the same care and respect that I hold for it, and I couldn’t be happier with the result. THANK YOU EVA <3

Working with Lorna was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. She brought a warm, encouraging energy to the entire process. Her proofreading was meticulous and thorough — she caught everything — but what truly set her apart was how she communicated. She was prompt, kind, and a genuine delight to work with. I never felt like just another project; I felt supported. If you're looking for a proofreader who combines sharp eyes with a wonderful collaborative spirit, Lorna is your person. I woul...

When we found ourselves in a pickle and needed a job turned around fast and well, Grainne saved the day! Her meticulous work—even while working with a tight timeline—was truly impressive. Great communication, a keen eye, and the utmost professionalism are why we look forward to working with Grainne again and again on future projects.

James proofread my 63,000-word nonfiction book, and the work was exactly what a final proofread should be. He returned clean tracked changes — over 750 corrections — plus nearly a hundred margin comments where a decision was mine to make, each one clearly explained. He caught things well beyond typos: an appendix citation that didn't match what the chapter actually said, a sentence that quietly contradicted the book's timeline, and consistency slips I'd read past a dozen times. Just as impor...

Veronica did an outstanding job bringing the vision for Social Media Melted My Brain (and I Still Pressed Post) to life. From the very beginning, she understood the tone and message behind the book and translated that vision into a bold, eye-catching design that perfectly captures its humor and commentary. Her creativity, attention to detail, and ability to take abstract ideas and turn them into visually engaging artwork made the entire process feel seamless and collaborative. What impressed...

Absolutely wonderful work! Book debuted as a best-seller in multiple categories, and Caitlin is 100% the reason.

Kat was fantastic, extremely professional and knowledgeable. Was able to provide structured feedback. Did what she said she was going to do. Qualty was great. Thoroughly enjoyed working with her. I look forward to our next project together

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...

Devon went above and beyond on the editing project for my historical fiction book. I really appreciated her superb attention to detail and consistency, as well as her professionalism and responsiveness throughout the process. She even completed the work a full week ahead of schedule. Highly recommended!

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 Mary Ann was a wonderful experience! She was quick to respond to feedback and did an incredible job of capturing the vibes of my story. I couldn't be happier with how the cover turned out!

I have LOVED working with Cat. As a complete newbie to the book publishing world, she has patiently guided me through the marketing process and came up with a fantastic marketing plan at a very good price. Her experience in the industry clearly shows in her work. I would highly recommend Cat to anyone looking for a book marketing pro.

This is my first time writing a book and I am SO glad I chose Wayne to illustrate the picture book. He is AMAZING! #1 - I love his art. He really brings the story to life in ways I wouldn't have ever thought of. Also, I noticed that while a lot of the other illustrators had lovely drawings, but a bunch of them felt the same. Wayne's really just called to me and felt unique and one off for the books. #2 - Wayne is great to work with. He had some great suggestions on the book that real...

Lauren is excellent to work with and timely in her responses. Her knowledge and insight are invaluable and well-appreciated. She provided me with clear and direct feedback that has helped me shape my story better. I look forward to continuing to work with Lauren in the future. Thank you!!

Working with Charlotte was an amazing experience from start to finish. She truly brought my vision to life and helped shape my children’s book into something even more beautiful than I imagined. She paid close attention to every detail, especially the emotional tone, representation, and overall feel I wanted the story and illustrations to have. I felt genuinely heard throughout the entire process. Charlotte was incredibly patient, responsive, and open to feedback. She made revisions thoughtf...
