I have had multiple experiences with The Literary Studio, using both their manuscript review services as well as their full editing services. With their assistance, we worked closely on improving fictional writing that I have been working on.

Despite having some difficulties borne out of medical and family emergencies on both my side and theirs, they have remained courteous, attentive and exceptionally professional throughout. The quality of the service they provide is excellent, and their commitment to improving my work regardless of what obstacles crop up during the process is commendable.

I can say without a shadow of doubt that their assistance has improved my written work considerably and permanently; as they have provided constructive commentary and advice throughout.

I have used assessment, reassessment services and substantive editing, all done by Miles.
Knowing well my manuscript, he deeply analysed the text, giving his invaluable advice, recommendations and suggestions how to develop my story to its full potential.
My admirations for Miles’s high professionalism as he pays attention even to the smallest details.
I would recommend The Literary Studio to everyone who seeks quality editorial services.

Thanks Miles, great editing, support, and advice on how to move forward and finish my book.

5 stars for Miles’ assessment of my manuscript. He is a gifted editor/reader who showed a deep understanding of my novel and offered priceless insights along with practical tips for implementation. The report is thorough, very detailed and perceptive. I’d done all I could with my novel, and it’s a great relief to get expert eyes on it. Would recommend.

Writing a novel for the first time, with zero experience sure is a journey. I have finally managed to get mine to a place where I am genuinely proud of it, and almost can’t believe the difference from the first draft. It was this first (very amateur) draft that I worked on with Miles Hawksley, who supported me with a full Manuscript assessment and substantive editing, and in doing so, helped me take a giant leap in the process of writing a novel. With Miles’ expert skill, it went from being a basic foundation of something with potential, to a well-structured, professionally formatted body of work. Miles taught me so much, especially around plot structure and character development. This not only significantly enhanced the manuscript, but it made me a stronger, confident and more creative writer.

He gave the highest level of guidance towards my writing and for the pitch process. I experienced unmatched value in his encouraging approach, which is one of the reasons why I have kept going with my writing. And it was fun, I had such a laugh with Miles, which was the best bonus. I am so grateful to Miles, Lorena and The Literary Studio. I highly recommend their service to anyone who wants to take their writing to the next level.

It's challenging to see the issues in your own work, and yet it's a leap of faith to pay someone else to tell you what they are. I'm very glad I engaged the Literary Studio to do so.
I received a very comprehensive and insightful review. I found it both encouraging and yet also necessarily critical. I have a much better idea what I need to do to improve it and the main obstacles to overcome to help find representation.

I requested developmental editing for my novel, and the result was a comprehensive report that examined every aspect of the story, along with useful comments in the margins. The turnaround was quick—nearly two weeks—and very satisfying. The editor thoroughly read and analysed the novel, providing clear guidance on how to change and improve the story.

What made this process particularly helpful was the editor's precision, honesty, and kindness. The tips felt like friendly advice from someone who eagerly wanted to see the work improve, which was encouraging. I guess the biggest takeaway from this experience was that, through the perceptive eyes of the editor, I saw my story clearly from all angles for the first time and gained insight into how it could impact the reader.

While the process was meant to be more interactive, with clients having access to a portal to track the editing progress, technical issues prevented this feature. Despite that, I was so satisfied with the outcome that I overlooked this issue. I'm sure resolving it would make the process more engaging and exciting for writers.

A targeted editorial service that constructively highlights the weakness in your writing; but in equal measure builds confidence in your strengths.

I have used both the assessment and reassessment service and would thoroughly recommend them both.

So far I have been delighted with the service. Lorena Goldsmith turned around my submission package very quickly with a detailed commentary and helpful insights as to how to improve. One of the reasons I chose The Literary Studio, however, is that they more than just a one-off review and therefore I look forward to future feedback on my continuing efforts to get it right.

Great service, quick turnaround, good follow up.

It was a very good assessment. It covered the areas where the book could be improved and the perspective that readers are looking for. I enjoyed the input and recommend using his service for those who are serious about writing.

Miles is a gifted editor with an excellent editorial and commercial eye. His report provided specific and actionable feedback that massively helped to improve my manuscript. He’d clearly engaged with the work and I felt that I could trust his judgement. Would definitely recommend!

Very professional company who have been reviewing my book and I hope to continue to complete it with them.

comprehensive and timely manuscript appraisal and follow up to queries

I received a detailed, perceptive and constructive review. The reviewer displayed an uncanny ability to identify not only the areas of the book that were concerning me, but suggested ways forward, with each comment, that will help resolve the difficulties

The assessment of my writing was professional, in depth and the suggestions very helpful.

I have found The Literary Studio to be an exceptionally valuable partner in my fledgling efforts as a fiction writer. Their manuscript assessment is extremely effective in identifying the weaknesses in structure, character development and style, articulating them in ways that provide precious guidance for revision and improvement. This comes with an expert effort to identify potential strengths, with an eye to the defining aspects of the manuscript and a look ahead to the publishing market. The editors strive to understand what you are trying to express as an author and help you achieve it much more effectively. I consider The Literary Studio as a great resource to help a writer grow; and with their range of services and stellar editorial qualities, they are well placed to help writers at different stages in their experience and career throughout the creative journey. A powerful resource and partner for anyone who loves writing.
