"Just the thought of self-publishing my first book absolutely terrified me. There were so many moving parts to it, so much work involved, and so to say I was daunted would be an understatement. What I can say though is that I could not have picked a better editor to help me through the process. Bryony was an absolute dream to work with. She was reliable and quick to reply to any queries and silly questions I sent her way—and goodness, were there a lot! Not only that, but she polished my manuscript so that it became the best it had ever been. When I read it back the first time it was like reading it for the first time. She has a light touch but a keen eye. I honestly don’t think I’d work with another editor, and I’ve already booked her in for the second book of my series. Thanks so much, Bryony!"

"Bryony is such a fantastic proofreader and editor, and it was such a pleasure to work with her. I felt I needed one good read through of all my books before publishing wide to correct misplaced commas and any snarky errors left that I couldn't see due to 'author blindness.' Not only did her corrections make me extremely confident to put the books out on multiple platforms, but she got them back to me so quickly! Also, I would have questions from time to time and email her, and she would always respond back within minutes, which wasn't needed but was very much appreciated. I can't say enough about the skill and service she provides. I will absolutely be using her for final proofreads of all my books moving forward!"

"As a new author, finding an editor seemed daunting. It's such an important step, and you want to make sure you find the right fit. I shouldn't have worried. From Bryony's first email to her sample edit, and all the way through the editing process, she exceeded my expectations. Her skill level is immediately apparent and working with her has helped me produce a book that I'm proud to publish. If you're searching for an editor who's friendly, responsive, and who truly puts time and care into your novel, then hire Bryony. I'm looking forward to working with her again in the future!"

"I just wanted to drop you a line and say thank you. When you edited Clayton and did such a good job, I did a query, and a publisher picked the book up. I could not have secured a publisher without the effort you put into the story with the edit. It was number two yesterday in the werewolf genre on Amazon. For me, that's huge, and I realize that without you, I would never have had the courage to query because of my grammar skills. You made it shine, and I just wanted you to know this. Look what you are doing for people, letting them have confidence in a story enough to query. It might not be a giant agent picking up the book, but for me, this is a giant win in my writing career."

"Bryony is nothing short of phenomenal—as a person and in her work. All nerves and doubts were eased about the editing process from day one, and from her free sample edit, her expert skill level and attention to detail is immediately apparent. Bryony’s edits are invaluable, and her comments of both praise and constructive feedback gave me the confidence to publish a novel I’m proud of. Bryony goes above and beyond and will really treat your manuscript with the care and attention it deserves. If you need a professional, affordable editor, look no further than Bryony as with that, you’ll also receive a cheerleader for your hard work and an abundance of advice and support. I can't wait to work with Bryony again."

"I'd been looking for an editor for my first book for a while and then I met Bryony. Her positive energy, understanding of my previous bad experience, and patience made all the difference in the amazing experience it was to work with her. Not only did she give me feedback on the story and helped me cut it down, she also kept the parts I loved and helped me find a book cover designer. She made all the difference from the beginning to the end of this self-publishing journey. Thank you, Bryony!"

Without a doubt, I'll be asking for her help on all my future books."

"Bryony is very thorough, thoughtful, and is great at streamlining your work but still maintaining your voice and tone. She’s amazing at making your manuscript smoother to read and has a great way of raising any points that need addressing in a discursive way. For me, an editor needs to be someone I can trust to scrutinise my story, understand and question my characters' motivations, and be honest enough to tell me when something isn’t working and where I need stronger complications. Bryony is brilliant at all of those things, and I could tell she cared about helping me to tell the best version of my story that I could."

Her extensive editorial skills alone make her a delight to work with. Her enthusiasm and consistent responsiveness are pleasant extras."

"Last spring, I won a free copyedit of 50K words from Bryony Leah. After receiving back my manuscript, I was thoroughly impressed with Bryony's edits.
When I submitted the first 50K from my fantasy novel, I was confident there wouldn't be much to correct or tweak. I had edited it several times, along with five beta readers. I thought it was very polished, but Bryony found room for improvement. With a deft hand, she made tweaks to my prose for clarity and corrected grammatical mistakes that had snuck through or that I was oblivious to breaking. She also offered me some insightful and helpful general comments about what she had read.
On top of that, she was completely professional in her communications with me and easy to work with. Before starting to edit, she asked me questions to find out how I wanted my manuscript edited. If you're looking for a copyeditor or proofreader, I would highly recommend her!"
