Hear what others have had to say:
Courtney Galloway was very thoughtful and detailed with her edits on several of my manuscripts. It was very lucky for me that she was familiar with the mythologies I was weaving into the series. She polished my work with consideration for creativity, and her feedback was insightful and very necessary. My manuscripts have returned edited with care, and I highly recommend her editing services.

Unabashed appreciation. I have used Courtney to proof several books. Not only did she do outstanding work in proofing, she made polite suggestions to improve the content. Highly recommend her services... Until I need her again then get in line!

Courtney did a great job for me as a beta reader and even did some light proofreading. She addressed my areas of concern with insight, thoughtfulness, and delicacy. I'll use her again for sure. Highly recommended. — DJ Rangel
If you were to judge her by her appearance only you'd be proven wrong as soon as she speaks. Her quality of speech and love of language enables her to be focused, and her humanity, (a glorious quality brought out by her cats and other loves) allows her to be honest and forthright. — A. VanUitert
I've had the pleasure of working with Courtney for last five years. When working on my manuscripts, she's offered quality advice on nearly every facet of the editing process. She's a great asset for me and would recommend any author at any stage in their career to work with her. — C. Jimenez
Courtney Galloway is an excellent editor, knowledgeable, swift, and possessing an understanding of characterization and plot as much as grammatical conventions. She can catch copy edits, and cogently discuss whether or not you jumped the shark on your characters/plot, all in the same breath. I'd definitely recommend her to any writer wanting a good scrubbing on his/her manuscript. — S. Osborne
A lovely person to work with, Courtney has been instrumental in building my confidence over the years. — S. Dancewolffe
Ms. Galloway possesses the professionalism and time sensitive work ethic that our industry requires. She caught errors that two beta readers and 200 test readers missed completely and helped me with flow, copy editing, and general polish. I highly recommend her. — C. Mingolelli
Courtney is a very thorough and honest editor and if you ask for it, she'll also give you advice on plot and character development. Her services go beyond just simple edits. With her quick-turnaround time, I find I can get my product to market efficiently. I highly recommend her, she really gives you quality service. — E. Jimenez
