Sat on this manuscript for 6 years. They handled formatting, ISBN, KDP and IngramSpark setup and walked me through all of it. Paperback came out gorgeous.

My editor flagged a timeline issue in chapter 14 that three beta readers didn't notice. Detailed notes, never tried to change my voice.

Thanks Tom! Halloway Manor was a genuinely creepy read — glad the notes helped.

I'm not a writer, I just had 20 years of stories. After a handful of interview calls the ghostwriter nailed my voice. My wife said it sounds like me talking at dinner.

Really happy with how the book turned out, especially the interior layout with all the photos. Took about two weeks longer than quoted, but they kept me updated the whole time.

Thanks for the honest feedback, Linda. Photo-heavy layouts take extra proofing rounds and we should have flagged that upfront. We're so glad you love the final book.

The illustrations are just beautiful. They took my rough ideas for Mira and made her feel real. I got sketches at every stage and could ask for changes.

Second picture book with this team. Same illustrator as last time, which I really appreciated. Colours printed true in hardcover.

The launch plan had real numbers behind it. Hit #1 in two small business sub-categories on Amazon launch week. The ARC reader campaign got me 40+ reviews early.

My book is a collection of short reflections and I was nervous about edits. They tightened things without losing the calm tone. Lovely people to work with.
