“Alex is wonderful! She has such a fantastic eye for scene, character development, and pacing. I appreciate a developmental editor that can see the bones of a book in terms of each individual scene within a chapter, but also the broader arc and pacing for the story as a whole. I’m an overwriter, so her feedback was essential for trimming the fat from my story without harming the integrity of the plot and character arcs. I would absolutely work with her again, and I encourage anyone seeking beta or developmental feedback to give her a chance!”

— Emily Rath, international bestselling author of the Second Sons Trilogy, Whiskey and Sin, and the Jacksonville Rays Series

“By far the most helpful feedback I’ve received on my manuscript! Getting any sort of critique on your work is hard. Alex is tactful and honest in her feedback, and presents her constructive analysis in an easy-to-follow format. This process was an enormous help and extremely beneficial as it allowed me to take a necessary step back from my story to view it on a more structural level. It’s imperative to have someone take a fresh, unbiased look at your manuscript, and this was exactly what I needed to help take my manuscript to the next level. I commend Alex’s expert approach in her critique while maintaining my creative intention and keeping my publishing goals in mind. Easily 5/5 and 100% recommend!”

“Alex is a fantastic developmental editor! She rolled with the changes I made to our original plan, and I'm so pleased with the result. She picked up everything I wanted her to within my story and provided valuable feedback for me to improve my character development, plot, and worldbuilding. Her ideas and recommendations will be instrumental in my editing process and I have no doubt that my book will be better because of it. She will be my go-to editor for every book I write. THANK YOU for your hard work, Alex!”

— Ceara Nobles, author of the Rising Elements series

“Alex was incredibly patient with all of my questions and was genuinely interested in helping me work it all through and decide what sort of edit was right for my story. I personally get the best out of feedback when it’s given in a supportive way – I want to know how my work can be improved but I also want to know what is already working. Alex balances this perfectly! What I got back blew my mind! The comments and suggestions she made were kind and encouraging, insightful and actionable. She challenged me in the best possible way and also called out the things she loved about my story. I was absolutely thrilled with quality of Alex’s work and there is no doubt my story is better because of her help. I would work with Alex again in a heartbeat and have already booked my second edit!”

— Lauren Searson-Patrick, author of the Amber Wolf Duology

I was blown away with the level of thought and care that Alex put into editing my novel. Her skill in dissecting stories shined a light on all the cracks in my project, and she provided such a wealth of information, both about writing craft and about my novel. Alex showed me how a few missing pieces can join the dots and make the whole story come together. She re-inspired my confidence in both my manuscript and in myself as a writer, and I cannot wait to work with her again!

I can’t recommend Alex enough! She was very thorough and provided a detailed breakdown of the novel and its strengths that helped give me a bird’s eye view of my story. I felt like she really understood what I was trying to do and was able to point out areas where it wasn’t coming across or could be stronger. She delivers her feedback in bite sized chunks that made it easier to digest and tackle in revisions. I definitely recommend Alex for someone who has taken their novel as far as they can and is looking for a fresh set of professional eyes to help you see it through to the finish line.

This totally grew my perspective on my WIP. I really didn't know how much further I could take the story on my own. Enter Alex and her beautifully designed report. Her feedback was pointed but well-detailed, analytical but encouraging, and exactly what I needed to hear. She lets you know what your strengths are and how to draw them out while also helping to build up your weaknesses with explanations, recommendations, resources, and revision tips all tailored to the soul of your story. I'm now confident in the steps I have to take moving forward and making this story shine the way I always envisioned. 10/10 recommendation.

Working with Alex on the developmental edit of my first novel was an excellent experience. She delivers her critique in a deliberate, insightful, and caring way. Throughout the process she was communicative and professional. The materials delivered at the end of the edit complement each other perfectly without feeling overwhelming. I look forward to working together again!
