Developmental edit of essay
I engaged Queensland Self Publishing to work on two projects. When I retained them to perform a line edit
and proofread on my book, the goal was to refresh a story that was three years old for
publication on my website. I cannot emphasize enough the level of quality
Queensland Self Publishing brought to the book. Based on analytics from my website,
direct traffic has nearly doubled since publishing the book, after it underwent professional editing.
Copyediting of poetry collection
For my first self-published poetry collection, I engaged Queensland Self Publishing for book formatting and
production services. As an early-stage author embarking on self-publishing, their
ability to handle manuscript preparation, editing, proofreading, and final formatting
for Kindle Direct Publishing in one integrated offering was appealing. Their all-in-one solution enabled completion
of my book in time for launch on Amazon. The end result exceeded my expectations in terms
of visual design and production quality. I am pleased to bring this work to market
thanks to the expertise and support of Queensland Self Publishing.
Line editing and proofreading for short stories
The team at Queensland Self Publishing demonstrates immense professionalism as well as thoughtful consideration
for an author's work. They exhibit a creative vision that surpasses expectations. Initially I was apprehensive
about sharing my work externally, however I found their kind and helpful guidance put me at ease. I trusted they
would handle the material with utmost care. Their editorial feedback included appropriate grammatical edits
while prompting reflection on certain aspects. This process helped me to grow as a
writer. I confidently recommend Queensland Self Publishing..
Copyediting and book design
I am pleased to recommend Queensland Self Publishing. Recently, I engaged their developmental editing services
for a challenging nonfiction work. Queensland Self Publishing handled the project with the utmost professionalism,
respect and care. Their editing helped bring clarity to the theme and more focus to the completed work. Additionally,
they provided constructive recommendations to enhance character development, dialog, scene work, tension and pace.
These revisions served to optimize my readers' experience and facilitated a stronger emotional connection to the
material. It was a pleasure working with Queensland Self Publishing. I give them my highest recommendation and
would welcome the opportunity to collaborate again in the future..
