Reedsy - Writer's Best Friend

I am loving Reedsy so far! The studio is by far one of the absolute best processors that I have used in my many years of writing.
It helps me to keep my work organized with the plot tiles, while offering the security of being cloud backed up. I can access it across multiple devices without even a hitch! I'm so excited to be using this studio, and I can't wait to see what other features will come!

Reedsy is incredible!

As a first-time author, having an intuitive platform that blends education with several practical tools needed at every stage of the writing process has been a god-send. This has made the writing journey so much more enjoyable because I don't have to start from square one when trying to figure things out. I am officially a fan :)

A Happy Beginner!

I am a complete beginner at self publishing and very nervous about being ripped off as well as not having a clue what I was doing. I was delighted with the process at Reedsy - very clear instructions, very businesslike, a lot of fantastic choice and, once I had made that choice, I worked with a brilliant designer who was professional and creative and produced a book cover that was everythign I hoped for. The Reedsy interface and system for payment etc., was super easy. I thoroughly recommend.

Comments re Editor on Marketplace and Reedsy Studio

2 years ago I realized my need for a professional editor. Using Marketplace, I sifted through profiles of editors that let me, at a glance, see a photo, a brief biography, their location, and number of reviews. That way I could narrow my search. The editor I chose has been wonderful, supportive, and detail-oriented. She offered an editorial assessment, and both developmental and copy edits that have proven salient in setting the pace and flow of the novel.

As I move onto the next phase, (i.e., proofreading) I am going though the same process. It's helpful.

Recently I have used Reedsy Studio to paste the manuscript into. For those writers that need goals and reminders as well as assistance with organizing their work, it looks comprehensive but that is not how I've used it.

Whenever I've had a question (some of which had answers already available in their list of articles), I have sent the questions and received personal supportive replies, generally the same day.

When I tried to insert sections (as in Part I, II, and III) the process of dragging and dropping over 40 chapters under each part became super tedious. When I emailed the support staff of this, I was advised that this would be taken into consideration.

So far my experience with locating and editor and Reedsy Studio have been great.

This is the only one of its kind that I…

This is the only one of its kind that I know of that makes the book format process seem worth the effort. The studio section took some time to figure out .I definitely had a few questions for chat GPT.But the text pages and the illustrations went together nicely.The other thing that i was impressed by is the border of white that they put around the illustration.that way they are accepted by the online bookstores.because they are safely in the format edges.

Super easy process

It was so easy to find exactly what I was looking for on Reedsy! I was able to filter to find someone with expertise in the genre I was writing, and she has been a fantastic editor, really helping me to better structure my story and find my style. I would definitely recommend Reedsy if you need help editing or just a second set of eyes on your book.

First Experience - definitely not my last!

This was my first experience with Reedsy so I was a little anxious about it.
I didn't need to be.
Once I'd signed up, finding an editor suitable for my work was incredibly easy. The process was straightforward and the communication from both Reedsy and the editor was excellent.
Throughout the process the editor updated me frequently which gave me huge reassurance.
The editor I chose was so good that I won't be looking for anyone else but I will continue to use Reedsy as there are other avenues I may explore.
I would recommend anyone to use Reedsy. It's made my life so much easier!

Excellent Platform for Writing Industry Professionals

Reedsy has made it easy to find high quality professionals. I've used other hiring platforms for work, but only through Reedsy did I discover an entire marketplace of professionals in the world of writing, editing, publishing. There have been a couple points of frustration in their user interface, but their help team was super fast to respond. As for the editor I've found through them, I couldn't be happier, and having Reedsy's payment protection guarantee made taking that first step all the easier.

A professional and genuinely helpful review experience

Reedsy Discovery was an important part of launching my first English-language novel. The review process was transparent, professional, and genuinely helpful—not just promotional. The reviewer engaged deeply with the book and offered thoughtful, fair feedback. I’d gladly use the platform again for future releases.

Why you should use Reedsy to write !

I enjoy using this app so much. it allows me to see exactly how far I am in my story and how long it takes to achieve my goals. I started on google docs but it didn't allow me to really understand and see my progress. Reedsy allows me to do that and much more.
