TESTIMONIALS

MONICA KAYNE

"Collaborating with Nina was a total game-changer! When I handed her my book, it was a raw, unpolished draft. With her expertise, she dove in and helped me weave in the levels of emotion and depth that I had been struggling to articulate. Nina pushed me to go deeper, to understand my characters better, and she helped me pinpoint what wasn't working and how to fix it. She's been a steadfast supporter and cheerleader of my work from the beginning. If you're an author, especially if you're newer, trust me when I say that Nina is the person you want in your corner. She's a gem."

SIENA TRAP

"I couldn't be more pleased with Nina's work on my books. Her attention to detail is unmatched, as is her knowledge of the romance genre. Thanks to her, my books are polished and ready for publication. I would highly recommend her services to any new or seasoned author."

CC GEDLING

"I was blown away with the results. Nina was comprehensive, and the order of her suggestions was great. I had a sense something wasn't right with my manuscript, but after working on it so closely, I couldn't see the wood for the trees. Nina put her finger accurately on the missing pieces and pointed out areas that, on reflection, I had added out of rush or fear for the story's progression. I digressed from my original plan and created incongruences. She picked those up and summarised them perfectly.

I honestly believe my story became 100% stronger with her input.

The report was fast and delivered on time. It's not uncommon as an indie author to experience unreliable service providers, but Nina was anything but. Her professionalism and organisation are second to none. I would recommend her to anyone and will be using her for future books."

NINA BLOOM

"Nina is outstanding!

She's truly a cut above the rest. I know when I hand her my book baby, she will care for it as if it is her own. 

Here are the reasons Nina is the best of the best... She knows my manuscript, characters, and writing style as well as I do. She has helped me identify my strengths while pointing out where my writing could be stronger. Nina goes through my manuscript with a fine-tooth comb, finding even the smallest inconsistencies and errors. She thoroughly explains her suggestions and will brainstorm with me if something is not working. There is no one else I would trust my book baby with."

LYNN YORKE

"I had a wonderful experience working with Nina on my steamy contemporary romance. Nina identified specific structural areas that needed work, and issues with plot and character development. She also made sure to point out what did work in the story, giving me an overall balanced take on the manuscript. It was clear that Nina really cared about helping me make my book shine!"
