Testimonials

"I knew my manuscript needed some work and that I wanted to work with a BIPOC developmental editor (I'm a Black author).Briana's on-boarding process was professional, and that made me feel like I was in trustworthy hands. She not only communicated and delivered on time, but she provided some really damn good feedback. She found all the places I knew my story was weakest and offered some great objective feedback. I really felt like I had a good story to tell and with her feedback, I believe it's going to be a great book!Beyond that, she provided some additional materials I wasn't expecting, such as comps. It showed me that she really knew her stuff!I couldn't recommend her more, expect that if I did, she might be too busy to take on my next book—but I'll take my chances and say that she's absolutely worth it!" - Nadia Rumbolt, author of Blood Cure____________________________“I’ve worked with Briana often, and I love her editing style. Rather than focusing on making scenes functional in context, she edits with a keen eye toward overarching narrative structure and how scenes fit into larger messaging.They very obviously put forth a lot of effort to make sure my work says what I’m trying to make it say, focusing on translating my intent into effective wording and style rather than just correcting the prose itself. I especially like her comments identifying tonal shifts in narrative and tips on differentiating character voices through small writing changes.” - Reid Pickett, creator of DiasporanautsBook your sample edit here to see if we're a good fit!
