It's hard choosing an editor, so why not hear from people who've already chosen? Hear what real clients have to say about my services!

THE GIRL IN THE COFFIN
“She’s a passionate, discerning editor who offered incredible critique that was both honest and actionable, and, reading her comments, I could already see it making my book stronger. I owe my book’s character growth and its new, character-driven plot to her.”

THE CRYSTAL CROWN
“I had Juli look through my query package, and from the query itself through the first ten pages she gave me the tools I needed to completely prepare it for agents. I wouldn’t have been able to figure out how to make the query stand out without her. She was knowledgeable and professional.”

ALEXIA UNDEAD
"Juli's a thoughtful sensitivity-reader/editor with a keen eye for style and grammar. She seems to genuinely care about the books she edits. She respects the author's vision, and her holistic approach helped me to give my draft the polish it needed. Her encouraging and friendly attitude as well as her ability to listen to what the author wants to achieve really impressed me, and as a cherry on top, working with her was fun and rewarding!"

IN THE BEGINNING
"If you’re a writer, you know that there are hundreds of different blog posts and threads about the dos and don’ts of query writing. I did my best to follow the advice that worked for me, without much success. And then Juli got her hands on my query letter and first pages. Suddenly, I felt MUCH better about my query package and even managed to get my first request! Not only was her feedback supportive, but it was spot-on: she managed to pick up on the parts I felt most uncertain about and, together, we figured out how to make them work. She’s an honest, talented, one-person hype squad with your – and your story’s – best interests at heart."

SAVAGE HEIRESS
"Juli Koen Alonso's help was fundamental for me to polish my query and my first pages. Honest and attentive to detail, she pointed out exactly what needed to change. With clear and concise language in her observations, she didn't miss even a comma. Her feedback was essential for me to be able to strengthen my manuscript. I highly recommend hiring her as an editor if you are looking for someone who is caring, dedicated and willing to help you. Not only did she help me with my manuscript but also her service made me a better writer. This is a result that I will carry with me not only for one book but for all the books I write in the future."

ANJIDIA
After creating multiple versions of my query letter and applying critique-based edits that left me with a confused mess, Juli shone a light on what I was missing. With clarity and professionalism, she helped me identify the elements of my query that worked and those that didn't (and why). Her sticking points were my sticking points. Having that confirmed helped me to produce a new query that contains all the tension and excitement of my older versions, the clarity my other critiquers craved, and the simplicity that's required. My experience with Juli will help me for years to come, and I cannot recommend her strongly enough.
