I especially liked the explanatory notes made by my editor, the estimable Jefferson, to both educate me on suggestions made and to ...

I liked everything about my experience with First Editing. They made editing fun, something I didn't expect.

Good quality work, line by line editing with relevant comments. The job was completed in one week, which is fast service with no loss of quality.

What I enjoyed most about working with FirstEditing is the personal communication with real people, the affordability and the timeline!
The editor has done commendable work. He has thoroughly checked for language errors. Thanks again for the effort.
Very thorough review work.
I loved the price compared to other services. This was less expensive and you got more bang for your buck. The deadlines given were followed and my editor, Dr. Vonda, was very helpful. She talked to me in layman's terms and was a pleasure to work with.
Everything is fine. Price is generally okay, but nothing to make me think, "Geez, I better edit everything I have here at First Editing." Not that the editing is terrible or anything like that. Far from it. Editing was exceptionally good. Solid enough to help me polish my work to ...
The quality of editing of each line along with helping me with the correct verb tense was priceless. The editor checked for missing people from the scene, and things that may not make sense to the reader. It is a wonderful gift that some people have to help ...
The speed at which it was done was exceptional. I sent in a two page draft for FirstEdit to sample and it was sent back to me in a matter of hours with the corrections/suggestions. It filled me with confidence. I was then assigned an editor, a historian who was able ...
I liked everything, the quick response, the honest review and editing.
The free sample helped to assess the quality and scope of the line edit on the MS and the live chat helped me to clarify a few questions immediately. The guide on track changes is a neat idea too.
The free sample was the most helpful. I used a 7 day turn around.
My editor, Nick, did a fine job in a timely manner. I also loved the fact that I could chat with someone from the company almost any time.
I appreciated the clarity of editing and corrections. Understanding of the story line and characters' personalities. I got help where I had made a technical/historical/geographical error.Also, the editor really helped in maintaining the continuity through three volumes in the series so far.FirstEditing offers a very polite and understanding service. It ...
Met deadlines with professionalism
Dr. Jeff was exceptional! I was so afraid I would get someone who would simply run the book through a spell checker. I give customer service a 3 rating because I found it hard to navigate your websites.
Quality is good.
I was very happy with the corrections and the helpful notes. I also really enjoyed working with my editor Jefferson who clearly understood both of my novels, which I was happy to see. 🙂
I loved the quality of the work, it helped completely strengthen my work without destroying the work I'd done.
The best part was the professionalism and personal communication of the editor. I felt like she understood and appreciated my work. Every piece of advice or recommendation was well thought out and made me reflect on both the novel and my writing. I feel my story is better, stronger, and ...

The overall service provided was first class, and as a first time author, I felt at ease with the process all round.
I liked the communication between the editor and myself. The price was reasonable. In fact, it was exactly what I had budgeted for. The turnaround exceeded my expectations. I expected it to be finished February 11, 2021, but it was finished January 31, 2021, way before I ...
Good response time and clarity of corrections.
I would say the quality of the work was my favorite part. Dr. Vonda had been so thorough throughout the whole manuscript. Her attention to detail was astounding, and her comments on a practical matter made a convincing argument in the places I might have had hesitation accepting the revisions. ...

I've always used First Editing. With 5 novels in print, my only regrets have been when I couldn't afford an editor at all. Those novels are the ones that I've gone over again and again to find errors and there are still more!I truly enjoyed the frank commentary offered ...
I loved everything about your services. Free sample, quality, professionalism, personal communication, costs/prices, deadlines, guarantee.
I liked the professionalism and personal communication with my editor. He explained how and why changes were suggested. More importantly, he was a student of the genre, therefore understanding inherent bad grammar of the characters.
The cost and followup were good.
The editor I worked with, Rob, was thoughtful and dedicated to my project. He was devoted to working with me directly which I found incredibly helpful. At the outset, he took the time to learn about my research and where I wanted it to go. In the end, he knew almost ...
When I was looking for professional editing services to help with my first book, I mainly considered affordability and professionalism. I found several big editors. But with First Editing, I found what I was looking for. The personal communication and the detailed overview of my work really helped after submitting ...
The response time was the quickest in the industry that I have ever experienced. The ease of communication all online made the process simple and stress free.
I'm grateful that a representative reached out to me before I began the editing process. It made me feel more secure about releasing my information to an online source. The edited work was amazing! Totally satisfied! I totally love the chat and response time from them!
I was impressed by the speed in which my manuscript was edited. Customer service was very helpful every time I had a question. The quality and price of service were both great.

Everything was great!
I loved my editor. She provides such good feedback. I know I can trust my manuscript will be at its best because she has worked with it.

The professionalism and timing
The free sample was helpful. It gave me a sense of what I would receive. I've worked with editors before. I really appreciated the thoroughness in such a short time.

My editor was top rate, professional, personable and met the deadline.

The editor Joanne made the book better! She made her deadlines and was easy to communicate with.
The response speed was good.
Good service, good quality, good price. What more could you want?
Free sample was great. Also, I was having difficulty in initially viewing my document but it was quickly remedied by emails and Firstediting even phoned me from the States when I live in the UK! Money well spent on paying a professional to edit my work and will continue to ...
Free sample was a nice way to get me to check out the service. It was also great to have the phone call once the sample was complete, as the email went to spam and I would have missed it entirely.I appreciated the upbeat and encouraging message from the ...
Dr. Vonda did her best to make my story perfect. And it was done earlier than I expected. Especially, I was satisfied with her follow-up service/help.
We appreciate our editor, customer service, and speed of service.
Great service and feedback!
I loved the feedback.
I like the way my manuscript is handled in a professional manner. And the way the support is right at my fingertips when I need it. And, my editor Jefferson who does a wonderful job of editing and cleaning up my messy book. I could not publish it otherwise. Thank ...

I like the whole process but I like having expert eyes on my document, finding the errors and giving feedback.

The quality of the counsel and advice. recommendations to re-sequence the chapters and when to introduce characters was exactly the professional advice I needed.
The response was quick for both the enquiry and editing.
The editing was done much quicker than advertised.

The platform is very simple to use.
The prices were great! Finding an editor is so expensive. The deadlines were fair and quickly delivered to my email. I enjoyed the people who I spoke to and so quick to reply to my emails. They were kind, patient and understood the stress of an author. I really thank ...

While every aspect of my experience with FirstEditing went went well(sample review, price, customer service), I have to make special mention of the speed of getting my work back to me.
Easy discourse with quick responses. The work is guaranteed, and they will work with you as much as needed.
As a second time customer after seeking your assistance for my previous book some 5 years hence, I was convinced of your efficiency and was pleased to note you have maintained the standard. I found all your services excellent and would gladly recommend you to others. But the only other ...
Not only the free sample, but the great quality and professionalism is what FirstEditing provided for my novel. And I would use the service over again. It was amazing and such wonderful services that they provide.
I appreciated the careful editing.
Robert has gone above and beyond what I was expecting. He made me feel at ease, comfortable, and built great rapport, allowing him to not only edit my paper correctly but also to narrow in on the overall objectives and give great advice and counsel. Top-notch editor, in my opinion.
We needed some content editing for our book to smooth out sentences a bit and make sure our complex ideas were as easy to follow as possible. We love having our same editor do a chapter each week so we can pay as we go and even learn from his ...
Quality, professionalism, very careful and kind personal communication

Jefferson did an amazing job on this book. Cathryn was concerned with starting a series of children's books at first. Jefferson's professionalism and amazing wordsmithing gave her the confidence she needed to release this book with confidence moving forward.
It's always a pleasure working with you, very professional and I love the personal communication. Also the price is right!
The quality of the work and the price was the deciding factor in my selection of FirstEditing. My first experience with FE was submitting a free sample for proofreading and the turnaround was great. Most importantly, Heather followed up and worked with me to decide what the best service would ...
Jefferson always does a great job and is careful to make suggestions that do not change the voice of what is said but help clarify the message.
The things I liked most about First Editing were the prices, professionalism and timeliness of the project.Jefferson was amazing! He is a true professional and really knows his stuff. He took the time to write an extensive review of my novel and made many helpful recommendations. His ...
The quick turnaround was great, but it was Jefferson's insightful comments that made me a real fan of First Editing (and Jefferson). He has an eye for detail! And, as my wife said when I showed her the comments, he understood the book and what I was trying to do. ...
The communication was excellent.

The level of professionalism displayed by all the members of staff that I interacted with was quite unexpected, it was off the charts.

Firstly, we want to thank First Editing for their professional services. You provide a very user-friendly service and outstanding customer service. Thank you. Secondly, we want to thank Jefferson.

The editor disagreed with me over the title, and I finally changed it to one that I thought of long after he finished editing.
I appreciated the customer service who were patient with my lack of understanding of your editing company process. My editor Michael also gave me a positive, kind, constructive critique. I felt vulnerable with my manuscript share and Michael was great with interacting with me.
I like the fact that Jennifer read the story and edited word by word. She added life into the story. She changed a few words, which gave me a bright idea on how to continue.
The quality, speed and cost are excellent.I have been impressed with the meaningful feedback provided.
Quality free sample. Because it was edited as if I paid and it was the full manuscript.
I am highly impressed with Jefferson's impeccable attention to detail. He even performed some research to improve my wording on several technical areas. I truly cannot express how amazed, and satisfied, I am with his suggestions on nearly every page, from page one to page 346. He has done what ...
The editing was excellent.
The quality of the edit was very professional, in-depth and really helpful. I tried two other editing services with this exact paper, and by far your service was more critical, had a large amount of changes, and the edits seemed more professional. Natasha even gave me advice and told me ...
Great value and good comments. Was very helpful.
I liked the whole service. In the beginning I was particularly encouraged by the possibility to test it through a sample and the presence of a guarantee. During the editing, I had a chance to appreciate the professionalism of Jefferson, the quality of his editing, and his courtesy and availability.
I love that my editor is aligned to my written work. For example, I wrote a lot about spirituality and he is well versed in that area, so I trust his insight. He is clearly an expert of the English language and I am not; therefore I find his ...
Natasha absolutely killed it as my editor. I was suffering through my dissertation process and I needed someone to lighten my workload and make sure I sounded as academic as possible...and I needed both services very quickly.Natasha performed exceptionally well, and so I hired her to edit several different ...
I loved these things:*free sample *great price *editing was clear to follow and explained
The clarity was amazing people are actually telling me what my book is about and the lady actually left my book how I wrote so it's still original.
Free sample and professionalism
The quality of the editing work is outstanding, with an extensive array of corrections and recommended rephrasing of rough spots. And the detailed explanation of each change is greatly appreciated. Excellent work done by Joanne.
I am still working on getting my 1st book edited with you finished. I have enjoyed the service so far, but will wait for my final recommendation when I have completed a published book with your editing services. Covid-19 greatly interfered with my process of using your ...
I appreciated the editors comments along with fixing of the language.
Excellent quality of work.
The speedy service was very appreciated.
I like the editor's feedback and comments on the writing.
We really enjoy the helpful editing and comments. Also, our chapters are back to us in a few days, which beats waiting for weeks like other editors we had considered using. Our editor, Jefferson, is great!
Excellent professionalism and personal communication.
High quality, professionalism and reduced time.
Quality, professionalism, deadlines, and guarantee

Communication between all concerned - administration, and my great editor.

The editor that was given my document was top of the line. She was both excellent in how she rectified work, and rapidly fast. She also wrote an excellent synopsis and query letter for me. As good a person that I ever worked with, and I have worked with ...
Dr. Natasha is the best! She does such a great job in improving my work. Every time. Thank you!
First, the quality of the work. It was excellent. Personal communication was very nice. I was encourage by Jefferson. To me the price is ok. It kept the schedule and gave me the product on time.
We loved not only the editing feedback, but the professionalism was much better than other editors we were considering. It is helpful that there is almost always someone available to answer our questions via chat or email, even late on a Saturday night. Also, other companies said they could do ...
I enjoyed the free sample, Max and Kathy's willingness to explain the limitations of my purchase and turnaround time.
Pure professionalism! Thanks!
I liked that you stuck to the deadlines that were quoted, and communication was prompt.
We are very satisfied with all services listed above that your company provides. This was our 5th edit project using your company with 2 more edit projects later this year. We are publishing 3 children's books this year.
I decided on engaging FirstEditing to help edit my work for epublishing because they are patient and answered all my queries satisfactorily. I also like their free sample editing which enables me to assess their work before committing. Editing corrected common errors and ensure that the final piece of writing ...
Free sample and being able to speak with a real person makes this a great service!
Lee Ann is an excellent communicator and provides specific feedback for improving my writing skills. Her attention to detail is much appreciated.
The price is always fair. My editor know exactly what I am trying o accomplish and has helped me immensely.
To be honest, I liked everything about the service. The price was reasonable, the service was done on time (or early), and the work was high quality. One of my concerns which turned out to be a non issue was whether the suggested edits would be in someone ...
Easy to work with and everyone was kind and professional
The entire team was professional and satisfied with your company.
Jefferson did a fine job editing my novel. He told me not only what was wrong, but also what I did well. Here's an example : the relationship of the protagonist Seb and another boy: "I found the relationship with Henka to be the real surprise. It was handled ...
Attention to Detail
Fine editing job of smoothing out the narrative.
Having it edited by a professional, and the support I received, helped me continue on with my writing. Thank you!
I like the feedback Max gives and that he makes sure my novel is in the correct tense and format. Just awesome work.
I tried many editing services over the years and I can happy to say that FirstEditing is the best service ever! Perfect timing, very affordable prices, quality of service is super high, and professionalism at the top standard. Most importantly, Editors are amazing (Dr. N is a genius!).
Being able to work with the same editor each week is a great service. Ours has our style sheet and understands what we are working on, so he has become great at retaining our style while giving good suggestions in the content as well as grammar, punctuation, and formatting.
The comments and feedback on my writing is the most helpful I get by using FirstEditing. Correcting grammar and verb tense is of course the backbone of editing, but without the feedback and comments, I would have no idea if what I'm writing makes sense to anybody else.
Second time using the same editors. Very good at taking my words and improving the quality of the paper
Our chapters always come back quickly and with great suggestions!
I appreciated how the staff made sure that I get a proper job by changing my editor.
Not only was it a quick turnaround for their services but the editor was professional and work was returned unexpectedly flawless. I was flabbergasted with how well the work was redone. I would use your service again in a heartbeat.
Loved the professionalism, communication and timeliness!
The speed in which they got back to me.That they honored their word when I had issue with submission of product. They were very thorough with communicating the different stages of the review process and when things were being completed.
The quality of work was excellent
We really love our editor. We can use him each time we send a chapter, so he already knows what we are trying to do and is familiar with our style and content.
I compared your services with two other companies prior to order from FirstEditing. The work is great!
All the above 😀Most of all a personal feedback from the editors, which is very helpful. We summarised his feedback and used it to promote the bookI am wondering if Jefferson can write a few lines to help us promote the book, so we can have his actual words ...
The quality of the editing from Lee Ann was excellent, as it has been on every book she has done, and after all, that is what counts!!
Quality work and fast turnaround!
I appreciate the honest feedback and quick return. Have been using the same editor for some time now so we have a nice flow. She is really helping to shape my work!
I like the communication, the editing services as well as other services that are offered. The prices is nice for those on a strict budget such as myself and my editor did a wonderful job.
I always love the free sample. The quality of the work is always amazing. Thanks!
Great quality and personal communication!

Relationship with editor. Comments were helpful.
The suggestions, other than the pure gaffes on my part, were generally spot on.
I read through the free sample and was astounded by what I had missed. It was sorely needed.
I appreciated the free sample and work edited in a timely manner,
Learning on what it takes to be a great writer, and it's happening! Jefferson is teaching me a lot, please thank him. His expertise and communication is top-notch and always on time with the said project. My book has taken a new course and I couldn't be happier.
Very good clear and concise. I was the EDD candidate writing my dissertation proposal in July when I first contacted FirstEditing. I then used again this last month for my chapter 5 and my references for APA. I successfully defended my project this past month and passed earning my degree.
Thank you for a very good editing job, performed professionally and in due time at a reasonable cost. I very much appreciated the personal communication with the editor in charge and would like to commend Joanne for her thorough work on my manuscript. I appreciated her personal comments on the ...
I have to say that this is the most amazing feedback I've received on a book!! Your critiques and suggestions have given me loads to think about to enhance the story.This is exactly what I need to help improve my story telling and future writings! I regret not finding ...
Flexible customer service.
The main reason I went with First Editing was the free samples. As you rmay recall, the first attempt didn't go so well. Kathy asked for a second chance and it was immediately clear that Lee Ann understood what I was trying to do.
Quality of work and deadline. I received my document after 2-3 days.
professionalism
I link the editing work that Lee Ann has made and the quick responses from FirstEditing.com

All: Free sample, quality, professionalism, personal communication, costs/prices, deadlines, guarantee

Lots of communication and quality work. Thanks Lee Ann!
The professional writing and communication was always great. Thanks a lot.
We always enjoy comments from our editor. He has answered questions for us and gotten chapters back promptly and consistently.
It was great to have an objective and highly skilled person word smith (Michael) review my work and offer points that improved the overall clarity of my work without losing my voice. It was evident that the reviewer handled my work with great care. All points of contact demonstrated professionalism ...
The quality of Lee Ann's editing was brilliant. This was a book that had suffered several rewrites and I had lost focus. Lee Ann rescued it. This is now the second book that Lee Ann has edited for me and the consistency and quality of her editing is outstanding. Many ...
I cried when I read my introduction. Lee Ann did such a great job turning my manuscript into a captivating story. The process was very easy and fun. I got some great feedback on my writing and Lee Ann went above and beyond for me. I am so grateful!
I appreciated the way you polished my writing and found all the little mistakes I made.

Personal communication was the most impressive. As an author, you always worry about the content and quality of a new book, and the editor reassured me that all was well. This was my first novel and their timely corrections and editing suggestions helped me tremendously throughout the process. ...
Everything
I preferred the cost and loved the service. By far the best service and bang for the buck.
Everything was well put together better than i thought it would
Lee Ann did an exceptional job. She did precisely what I asked and no more. Her comments were very accurate and I accepted nearly all her recommendations, which were consistent with my own thoughts.
I liked the sample and customer service. Although had almost zero communication with editor.
I appreciated the personal feedback. The free sample gave me an idea as to what kind of mistakes I was making and what needed to be changed. The work was done in a very timely manner.
Detail! Fast!
High quality of work, valuable insights, very good price, short deadline. Thanks!
I thought the quality of editorial feedback was great in terms of words to omit, how to construct a sentence differently, use of grammer, etc. Really good suggestions. Collectively, all the suggested edits did make the book better and more professional.
Thank you Jefferson, you did it again! Cleaned up my manuscript nice and shining, making sure everything is good to go. And, your quick response in answering any questions I had really helped. I have just published my book Poetry in Nature with confidence, knowing you did a wonderful job. ...
My editor had some good suggestions and she improved the clarity of the text.

The comments were really helpful.
Timely! Submitted it to be completed over the holidays and it was still done on time.Well done- I could tell a lot of effort was put into the editing (This was turned in for a grad school project and I received full points for writing mechanics/APA- and they are picky)Kept ...
Free sample gave me a good first impression, followed by the nice personal communication!
Super professional and personable, I always felt like I was dealing with a person, not an automated response system! My editor made brilliant comments to enhance the quality of the work and I agreed with every suggestion he made.
The correspondence between LeeAnn and Heather has been uplifting and most helpful. Not once was I left alone to struggle with my writing. They were there for me and to assist where possible.
The assigned editor was most helpful with my grammatical and punctuation mistakes. One of the administrators (Kathy) was helpful in communication with the client.
It was a great experience working with your team. My expectation were met. I loved working with Lee Ann. Her services were exactly what I needed. I loved that she gave her opinion as well as her corrections. I'm a number one Amazon Best-Selling Author. Thank you!
I am very pleased with my experience with First Editing. Jefferson did a remarkable job in terms of catching errors, suggesting more proper words occasionally, correcting wrong tense and, at the same time, keeping the writing as close to the original as possible. He was thorough, diligent, professional, and delivered ...
Free sample was very helpful, as it gave insight to the proficiency and also created a relationship with the editor. While everything was done via email, responses were timely and it still felt personal. I appreciate the access to my order, comments, and edited copies via the online client ...
I should like to thank you and your team especially Dr. Vonda for your editing services. To read through my manuscript again with correct punctuation and with a much smoother flow is a delight, I couldn't be happier. I particularly liked the helpful editing comments from Dr Vonda and her understanding of ...
Jefferson and First Editing (FE) are great to work. This was my second project with FE and I plan to return.
I liked the speed and transparency!
I consider it fortuitous and fortunate to have found Michael as an editor. His knowledge of the rules of language is impeccable, yet he also knows when a departure from the rules will better serve than adherence. The result is a clean, flowing final draft. However, what has taken me ...
Hi I wish to say a big thank you to Joanne who edited my manuscript. The suggestions are great and I'm looking forward to polishing the manuscript up. Thanks again!
I really appreciated the quick turnaround!
Professionalism in every aspect!
Language issues is made much better through First Editing. Being danish, it is a bit hard to get the language flowing..Thanks a lot!

This was a very thorough editing job !
Self-publishing a book is a jungle. Who to trust? My journey with First Editing began with receiving a sample. I was almost pleased, so I spoke with them on the phone, and they matched my needs with another editor, Jefferson, who was perfect. Jefferson has made an amazing job. Detailed, ...
The free sample was very helpful. The comments and advice by Christine about overall plot and structure, in her full review, were also extremely useful. Your costs are very reasonable for the detailed work undertaken.
Good quality and guarantee
I liked the attention to detail - grammar, spelling, and unnecessary wording.
This is my second engagement with First Editing. This tells you that when I have lots of choices, it was to First Editing that I returned. They do great work in the editing. But, so does everyone so why chose them? Well short of having an Editor sitting next to ...
Exceptional editing! Exceptional editors!
The price of service is reasonable. The company is professional, and my editor is just the best! Ask for Robert :). The work came back fast every time!
Jefferson really brought out what I was trying to say. There were a lot of grammatical errors and he pointed out the parts that he really liked.
As always, Dr Natasha did a wonderful job! I'm extremely happy with the quality of her work.
The service I received was great and they do what it really says on their website they are amazing with meeting deadlines and they'll edit and improve your none fiction book really well and I'm extremely satisfied with their service.
I give my editor Michael 5 stars *****. He is a #1 editor!
The free sample allowed me to evaluate your service. Jefferson indeed showed me I needed your service. My good and clear thoughts made it to the page but not in an impressive and error-free manner. The free sample showed me I had found an impressive service at a reasonable price ...
Excellent feedback from editors, especially Robert!
Jefferson was able to take what he said was already good and condense it into a more readable and less redundant form without losing the voice of the author who wrote it.
Free samples is important. As a custoomer you have no idea to whom you are paying money. It may be a scam. A free sample allows you to determin that the company is serious.
I like the professionalism and depth the editor (Allison) puts into her work.
Excellent turn around time!
I love the free sample edits as well as the prices offered.
Good quality!
I like the professionalism and personal communication the most.
Editor Lee Ann provided excellent feedback. She cited rationale for recommendattions and offered additional comments to aid in the improvement of the manuscript. She was prompt and positive in all interactions. Pricing was especially attractive for a self-publishing, first-time writer.
Working with an editor I've used many times before.
The quality of the edit was great once again.
The work was delivered complete and on time. Jefferson was very helpful in his original comments and in responding quickly to follow-up questions. I would continue using Jefferson on this project and on future projects.
The quality of the editing and Joanne's professionalism. She was very helpful and I followed all her suggestions/comments. She obviously was very diligent with my manuscript and I cannot thank her enough. I felt taken care of with First Editing, and that they truly wanted me to succeed in my ...

Simply placing words into correct positions is what caught my attention at first. For although I have thought that I knew how to construct a sentence in a best way possible, it was shown through my editor that there were better ways. Also the questions asked concerning certain phrases and ...

I like everything about First Editing. That's why I have been a regular client for years. I won't publish anything without them.
Firstediting.com was amazing! Affordable pricing, astounding quality, professional and personal communication. Dr. Vonda provided everything I was looking for in an editor. The deadline was met ahead of time, and any questions or concerns I had were addressed within 24 hours or sooner. I would highly recommend to anyone!
I just went straight for editing
I liked the accuracy of the edits and the speed with which they were done. I disagreed with only a few changes mainly because I have the complete concept of the book in my head.
Jefferson was awesome and I appreciated that he made several comments with lots to work with. He delivered within the deadline and I had a very detailed overview.
Jefferson did a great job of cleaning up my manuscript. He caught my mistakes and fixed them. Now, the book is in perfect shape and ready to publish. Thank you Jefferson. It was a pleasure having you edit my work. Patsy

quality, deadlines and costs
Customer service was awesome. Joanne did a great job and she was thorough. Did it all in such a short time, too. I've requested her for my second manuscript.
I had a problem with how the Markup language in Word was used. You corrected the problem, and now we're on to other chapters.
Very professional. Very friendly customer communications. Extremely competitive fees. We have used FirstEditing services with all four of our books and plan on using them with each new additional book added to our series. 🙂
I liked the comments of Dr. Vonda. She was incredibly supportive and kept the tone of my writing while correcting grammar.

I have had other companies that did what I paid them to do with the negative undertone and struggles getting answers to my important questions because they had ...

I found First Editing helpful and accommodating to my requirements. Kathy was extremely polite and cooperative. Throughout the communication, I felt my project was given time and interest. The price wasn't the cheapest but I opted to go with them because the sample that was edited and ...
Joanne did a fantastic job
The free sample started the ball rolling. The author could see that his voice would not be changed but the manuscripts would be edited to ensure it would be up to industry standards. The costs were about average but more impressively was the turnaround time for the 105,000 word ...
The service is incredible. Thanks to Natasha I am learning what it feels like to really write. The quality of work presented back after editing, professionalism, and communication are all superb. I will continue to use the services because they are so helpful. The service is well worth the cost.

The price was very competitive.
I've been writing professionally for five years now. I had 3 years of college-level writing classes before that. The folks at First Editing saved me endless embarrassment with their 'catches' of things that managed to make it past 8 levels of proofing, Beta-Reading and other developmental stages.

What I liked most was the editing part of the document, and your comments. I would like to work with you in the future.
Efficient processing. I was in a hurry. I should have asked for content editing on "The Numbers Man" and on "What happened To Flynn."
Personal communication and quality
I appreciated the timely response. The attention to detail was evident in the finished product, and yet the voice remained the same. Everyone I had contact with was very helpful.
My screenplay had been optioned twice and before sending it out again I wanted to make certain it was as tight as possible. I've never done that good, er, well (see) with punctuation, grammar and spelling (despite being quite articulate, lol) so this service was a no-brainer for me. Allison ...

FirstEditing has edited my first three books in the series Invasion of the Ortaks. Book 1 the Knight, book 2 the Defeat, and book 3 Rebellion. They have done a great job, and I like working with them.
Having a First Editing editor review the manuscript was a very valuable and enjoyable experience. Not only did Nick line edit and correct spelling, grammar, etc., but I also ordered the Editorial Evaluation for my novel. His evaluation of the story and characters made me see some issues ...

Pleasant interaction.
Hi Vonda,I am so glad you liked it! I would love to work with you on my next novel as well. Wont be ready until February but I'll keep you posted.
Editing notes were clear and comments were enjoyable and helpful. The job was finished in the timeframe that was promised.
I particularly appreciated the backup which I received from Kathy Hatter, your representative in Washington DC who stayed in touch with me to resolve problems that arose. I live outside the US and there were difficulties receiving the final formatted manuscript directly from your administrative office. Kathy facilitated the ...

My faith in your honesty. There are far two many scams on the internet.

I liked the professionalism, deadlines, comments and explanations.
Great editing. I wish you had a service to revise after the author modifies the paper.

Jefferson was a magnificent editor. He was timely and left well thought out remarks throughout my work. I'm in the middle of my readthrough, and it looks great!I'd be surprised if anyone would leave a '5' for the price, but FirstEditing did work with me on pricing to ...
I appreciated the TWO sample edits. If it wasn't for the second round, I would not have retained your services. Pricing is was reasonable but I was initially attracted to the promise of a fast turnaround. Above all, Allison's insights and thoughtful commentary was the winner for me.

The quality of Dr. Natasha's editing is always excellent.
Quality, meeting deadlines, and professionalism - I had requested 3rd level line-editing service, but was told that from the perusal of the sample chapters sent that my manuscript just needed a 2nd level technical editing; that's honesty!
I appreciated how the customer service associate listened to what my needs were and helped me choose the most cost-effective option. The resulting edited document was exactly what I needed.
The professionalism that was demonstrated after I decided to pull the trigger was exceptional. It took me 6 months since I first inquired about your services and after a few other edits decided I still was not confident over the results. Now I am ready to publish thanks to your ...

It was a well-rounded, helpful edit.
