    She did an amazing job. I needed someone to read my book and really give it a hard look. I can't recommend her enough. She helped me find plot holes and let me know where certain passages were less clear.

    Amy worked with me on a tight deadline for a query letter and the first 50 pages of a manuscript draft. I was able to send her the link for the specific query requirements and she tailored her review to that. I am extremely impressed with the feedback that she provided, most especially on developmental analysis and making my query letter more high stakes.

    Amy was incredibly responsive and professional. She provided insightful inline comments throughout the novel which has helped me identify areas for improvement. She also provided an overall summary report. She has a deep understanding of craft and that showed. I know my next draft will be all the stronger...

    This was excellent work by Amy. She really went into depth with the big picture of my manuscript and with the characters in her developmental edit. Her in-text notes and edit letter really let me see the story with a fresh pair of eyes and great ideas. She was easy to communicate with. I'm looking forward...

    Amy had a great understanding of the story I am telling. Her comments are well-thought out, and her suggestions will make my manuscript stronger. She finished the edit faster than expected, and she communicates well and responds swiftly. I have no complaints at all and look forward to working with her again in the future!
