Testimonials
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Paisley on three stories now, and I can’t imagine working with anyone else, or what my stories might look like without her. She’s everything you look for in an editor after passing over your book baby you’ve poured your heart and soul into. She’s professional, thorough, and her attention to detail is unmatched—all things you hope to find in a working relationship. But more than that, she makes me feel comfortable handing over my work, which is no easy feat given how personal my stories feel. Working with Paisley brings me a level of confidence in my work that I wouldn’t trade, because she helps me tell my stories to the best of my abilities. Thank you, Paisley!

Working with Paisley was an absolute joy and honor. As an editor, she was exceptionally thorough, professional, and detail-oriented. She went above and beyond to accommodate my dyslexia, finding the best platforms and processes for us to collaborate seamlessly. Her communication was clear and consistent, and her kindness made the entire experience even better. I can’t recommend Paisley enough and can’t wait to work with her again!

Working with Paisley has been one of the most invaluable experiences of my publishing process, I can’t imagine what I would’ve done without her! She is professional and patient, always more than willing to answer any of the questions I have, whether large or small. Her attention to detail is second to none, from the smallest of grammatical errors to finding plot holes I hadn’t found even after my third re-read. She put equal care into polishing my writing and ensuring my unique voice as an author was not lost. She’s friendly and approachable, and the love she has for her craft is very evident. Thank you, Paisley!

I can’t recommend her highly enough for anyone looking to take their writing to the next level!
—Charli Cotner, author of Fighting for Redemption
If you’re looking for an extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive editor—Paisley is your girl. I worked with her for my debut, and not only was it clear how professional and experienced she is, but she put me at ease and calmed my nerves every step of the way. An absolute pleasure to work with, who any author would be lucky to have on their team.
—Ronnie Mathews, author of Those Two Words
I absolutely love working with Paisley. She is incredibly professional while still maintaining a close relationship. Her edits are amazing and she truly listens to what I want and helps translate that onto the page. I am so excited that I have found such an amazing editor who truly gets me and my work—trust me, that is worth its weight in gold in this world. I am so excited to write more stories with Paisley.
—Caroline Masci, author of Love at First Chateau
The best part about working with Paisley is that you get three people in one: a friend, a professional colleague, and a lover of books. She genuinely cares about your book because she is all three of those people at once, and you can’t do any better than that. I’m looking forward to working with her for so many novels in the future!
—Athena Carstairs, author of Mr. and Mrs. Fate
Paisley has allowed my most beautiful work to shine. Her guidance, support, reassurance, kindness, and expertise through the editing and copyediting process have made me infinitely more confident in my book. She has aided me in understanding where my story was strongest and provided key reassurance as to its impact, while also productively outlining where and how it could be more powerful. Her talents are exceedingly apparent and her approach is one of warmth, support, and unending positivity. I will not hesitate to utilize her again for future works (I know she’ll book up fast, but she’s absolutely and completely worth it). I am so grateful for Paisley. I often felt we were in the same room, reviewing storyboards together and collaborating on narrative arcs. She’s the partner you never knew you needed, and once you work with her, you’ll wonder how you navigated before. She enhanced readability, provided thorough explanations at each stage, and gave thoughtful suggestions that have allowed my work to grow and be better than it was before. I am endlessly appreciative of all of her hard work and would recommend her a thousand times over.
—Erin McFarlane, author of Princes
Working with Paisley has been an absolute game changer for me as an author. Her keen eye for detail, expert feedback, and unwavering commitment to improving my manuscript have elevated my work in ways I never imagined possible. Since my native language isn’t English, I heavily rely on an expert editor, and Paisley was all I needed and more. Not only did she correct the technical aspects—grammar, structure, and flow—but she also provided invaluable insights into character development and plot pacing that brought out the true potential of my story. Paisley has an incredible ability to preserve the voice and essence of my writing while making it shine with clarity. Her constructive feedback was always thoughtful, encouraging, and delivered in a way that motivated me to push my craft further. I can confidently say that my book wouldn’t be what it is today without her guidance. If you’re looking for an editor who genuinely cares about your work and brings professionalism, passion, and skill to every page, I can’t recommend Paisley highly enough. Thank you for everything!
—Nova Banks, author of Rinkmates
I cannot express how grateful I am to have such a wonderful editor during the writing process. Paisley made me feel so comfortable handing my baby over to her (and mind you, it was a THICK document—sorry, Paisley!). She was so thorough, and her attention to detail helped make my book better. Honestly, I don’t know what I would do without her. Paisley is so easy to talk to and didn’t mind me sending her a million emails back and forth. At the end of our editing process, I feel like I’ve made a friend. If there’s anyone I would recommend to take care of your book, it would be Paisley, without a doubt.
—Alexandra Serre, author of A Regular Thing
I was so nervous sending out my hard work to an editor, but Paisley made the whole process seamless, easy, and fun in its own way. She is very friendly, personable, and professional. I enjoyed working with her, and I look forward to working with her on future projects. Her edits and suggestions always helped my story, and at the end of the day, any changes were always up to me whether I wanted to accept those changes or not. Paisley helped me to make my book the best version of itself that it could be.
—Tyiara Nelson, author of Rise from the Embers
I am incredibly grateful to have worked with Paisley on my debut novel. I know I’ll be reaching out to her to collaborate on all my future projects as well. Not only is she professional with a wealth of knowledge and expertise, but she is also thoughtful, supportive, and goes above and beyond to help you feel confident about your progress, your growth, and your vision as an author. She communicates clearly, timely, and always kept me in the loop. I cannot explain how much all of this helped me to feel comfortable sharing my writing, especially as a new author. I owe so much of my story’s growth to her editing talent. I feel confident sharing the finished product with readers, thanks to her.
—Jane Hayes, author of Winning the Nightcap
Paisley was the perfect fit for me and my manuscript. I could not have asked for a better set of eyes to help me provide the best product. She was so detailed and descriptive with her suggestions that it made it easy to understand why the changes were necessary! Paisley is very knowledgeable, and honestly, a dream to work with. I would trust her with my characters any day! If you’re looking for someone willing to help perfect your voice, while still maintaining authenticity, Paisley is the editor for you!
—Laurea Matthews, author of Little Do You Know
As someone who wanted to find an editor but was so nervous, I am glad I emailed Paisley. No one has ever seen my work outside of friends, family, and classmates, but when she emailed me back I was so excited. She answered all the questions I had before we even started, which really eased my fears. The feedback she gave was AMAZING; she asked questions to help jog my mind, and when I was confused or had a question, she was able to provide me with her knowledge so I could understand better. I plan to keep working with her as my writing journey progresses, and you should too!
—Makaylah J. Chambers, author of Behind the Blinds and Fighting the Orbs
The best decision I made—not just for my debut, but for my mental health—was reaching out to Paisley. She’s a dream to work with. She’s passionate, helpful, fun to talk to, very, very patient, and professional. She will give just as much attention and care to your characters and story as you did, to understand everything on a deeper level. I can’t wait to work with her more in the future. I called you my fairy godmother in my acknowledgments, and I meant it. Thank you, Paisley, for all your guidance and help to make Our Darkest Summer into its best version. And if it wasn’t obvious yet highly recommend her!!
—Hanga E. Pavel, author of Our Darkest Summer
My first book was edited by Paisley, and I could not be more thankful. She has made me feel the most confident as a writer with dyslexia. She made me feel appreciated and understood. I honestly couldn’t be happier to have had Paisley as an editor. I trust her to handle my stories with as much love as I do. She makes the stories the best they can be. Thank you, Paisley.
