"I am very pleased with the work carried out ... producing, if I may say so, a perfect professional edit. I ... feel confident that my books will always benefit. The end result is perfection in its edit." IRENE EDWARDS - author of the "MAGIC ISLANDS" series
"Professional, courteous, knowledgeable and skilled!"
"Very easy to work with. My book now looks professional and exactly how I want it."
"I found an unpublished manuscript my mother had written years ago ... about a portion of her childhood during the Great Depression in 1929. I had NO idea where to begin. They walked me through the process patiently, kindly and always encouraging, and consistently prompt ... It was proofread thoroughly and professionally. The formatting was perfect and uploaded to Amazon flawlessly. Thank you for guiding me through the process and thank you for the tree planted as icing on the cake!"
"Wonderful experience. I learned a great deal, the deliverables were of exceptional quality and the price was exceedingly reasonable. The editing and formatting took a ragged manuscript and made it a real book. I anticipated getting far less for far more. This has been a great experience. My sincere thanks."
"Provided a highly professional service in reviewing my book and carrying out an editorial appraisal... all that at a price substantially below that of competitors. With my next book I will have no hesitation in using their services to the full."
"Very professional service and excellent communication throughout the process. Exactly what I was hoping for. Furthermore price and product quality were also superb. Communication is key to this type of service and the service provided was first rate. Affordable but not to the degree of undermining a quality of service. Good balance given. Whilst there may be cheaper out there it is unlikely they would provide as thorough a service or as good a service. Personally I am happy to pay slightly more for a very good product and service. Regular, swift and always willing to answer questions with a personal response. And when I asked for further clarification it was given promptly and in good detail in a clear manner. I came across you from a recommendation from a friend so I would be more than happy to do the same."
"A very enjoyable and productive experience."

Great communication, too; Matt keeps me informed, I'm always aware of what's happening and the follow up is excellent."
"I have referred your service to other authors a few times and will continue to do so; it is great value for the money. The Kindle/e-Book Service adds a little to the cost, but is the icing on the cake for getting out there in the e-book market."
