“Working with Amanda has been a fantastic experience, not only because she is an exceptional editor with great attention to detail, but also because she is an author herself and understands the required mindset. She goes above and beyond, not only editing the work but also taking the time to understand your goals and suggesting improvements to better support you in achieving what you've set out to do. She is professional in her approach and a lot of fun to work with. If you're looking for an experienced, knowledgeable, detail-oriented editor who enjoys her craft and seeing authors succeed, then you must work with Amanda.”

“I am publishing my first book, and I found Amanda through word of mouth. I was told her dev edits were extremely thorough, and I found this was correct. She helped me to see all the tiny little things I didn't even think of, and again with a line and copy edit. She answered all of my questions—and there were a lot. I enjoyed the comments she left me, even if it was about me not having a single full stop in a paragraph. Overall, I found A Dove Editing to be extremely helpful and she delivered on time, even pushing it up a bit for me when needed right at the end. I will definitely be using her again.

“I got a great, highly professional developmental edit at a very reasonable price from Amanda. Heading into revisions with a couple great paths to pursue!”
Janet Roberts, award-winning author of What Lies We Keep
“Working with Amanda was an absolute delight. She completed the developmental edit much sooner than I was expecting and the report she provided was a game changer for my manuscript. Not only was it comprehensive and easy to follow, but it was full of sensible suggestions. She delivered her feedback in a considerate manner and I appreciated that she explained the rationale behind her notes. In addition to being skilled and knowledgeable, she was also friendly and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend Amanda to help elevate your manuscript.”
Toni-Raine Sherring, author of Tale of Tides, coming soon
“I absolutely love working with Amanda. She provides honest feedback to help your story grow. She guides where needed and she pushes you to become a stronger writer by pointing out areas that need fine-tuning. I highly recommend her services.”
Elisa Erwin, author of contemporary fantasy The Betrayal of Fire
“Amanda was very quick with her edit and so easy to work with! Loved working with her.”
Eden O’Neill, top 10 Amazon bestselling author of dark romance books
“The feedback I received on my outline gave me confidence in my story and renewed motivation. Amanda’s comments helped me tighten up my plot, consider new angles, and pinpoint my characters’ motivations.”
Ari Morgan, author of dark romance Switch,
in the Cat & Mouse anthology
I was blown away by the speed and thoroughness that Amanda approached my incomplete manuscript. I had come to her asking for help — my manuscript is hardly finished and missing some major plot points, but she asked the right questions. The feedback I received was thoughtful and incredibly helpful to plan out my next steps. She spent time looking at my unfinished chapters and offered solutions of where they could go. It took the pressure off staring at a blank page.
