"I was fortunate enough to find Hannah before publishing my first middle grade novel, and she has since set the bar for any other editors. Hannah is thorough, generous and supportive with her words and suggestions, and consistent with her edits. I have used Hannah's keen eye for detail in line edits and proofing and her incredible expertise and understanding of the middle grade horror genre to also give me developmental manuscript feedback. Hannah has been an invaluable source of knowledge and support through my publishing journey and could not recommend her highly enough."
Fionna Cosgrove, author of the Twisted Trails series
"Hannah's eye for detail and story really stood out in the edit I received. She clearly has a talent and I am blessed to have had her improve my manuscript to the level it is currently at. Money well spent!"
Keegan Bartel, middle-grade author
