“Working with Lia as my development editor was an incredible experience. From the very beginning, she brought both professionalism and genuine care to my project. What stood out most was her ability to quickly grasp the vision and heart of my book, and then help me bring that vision into sharper focus. She didn’t just correct or critique — she asked thoughtful questions, offered insightful suggestions, and gave me the tools to see my own work more clearly.

Lia has a rare combination of editorial skill and deep attentiveness. She helped me strengthen structure and flow, clarify my arguments, and uncover the themes that mattered most. Every comment she gave was constructive and respectful, which made the revision process feel less like “fixing” and more like growth.

I walked away not only with a stronger manuscript but also with greater confidence in my voice as an author. I’m deeply grateful for her guidance and wholeheartedly recommend Lia to any writer who wants to take their work to the next level.”

“As a first-time non-fiction author, I feel truly lucky to have collaborated with Lia on my book. We worked on developmental edit, editorial assessment & copy edit, and she exceeded my expectation at every turn. Now I understand why she got all of those glowing reviews, she's simply a dream editor, everything an author can dream of. Lia's exceptional writing skills are clear, no doubt, but it is her intelligence, punctuality, creativity, precision, and clear vision that truly set her apart. I was expecting the editing phase to be a bumpy ride with lots of back and forth, to my surprise, she actually managed to make it enjoyable. The final product is exactly as I imagined it, even better. Thank you, Lia. You're the best.”

“Lia was absolutely exceptional to work with! I'd muscled my way through various drafts of my very first book and had only obtained feedback from those who knew me, and thus recognized that I was in need of some objective feedback. As such, I connected w/ Lia first for an editorial assessment. However, as soon as I read the assessment it was apparent that Lia clearly understood the intention behind my work, as well as its strengths and weaknesses, and so I immediately asked Lia to help me with a developmental edit. I'm currently at the tail end of that process, but it's safe to say that working with Lia has been a blessing!”

Each step was executed with great professionalism and care, and I couldn't be more pleased. Lia also went out of her way to offer suggestions for publication and encouragement, and I truly felt as if she had the best interests of me as an author -- and the project itself--in mind. I wholeheartedly recommend Lia, and will definitely be reaching out to her for any future projects.”
