What clients say...
Some of my clients have had wonderful things to say about me.
Hiring Davy has benefitted dScryb tremendously. He's knowledgeable, diligent, and intelligent. He spots issues as they arise and takes the initiative to offer solutions. Not surprisingly, this has made Davy an essential member of the team. His edits have significantly improved the content that dScryb has published. Best of all, he gets along well with the writers, other editors, and ourselves. He's earned our trust. We recommend him without reservation, and we encourage anyone interested in retaining Davy to ask for our contact information and to call for further reference.

Owners of dScryb
"Working with Davy has been a pleasure throughout the entire
process. His communication always satisfied the trifecta of friendly,
professional, and timely, as did his edits. In addition to fixing the
usual misplaced punctuation, mangled sentence structure, and grammatical
mistakes, he also included stylistic suggestions, detailed comments on
why he made certain changes, and general observations to provide insight
into how a reader might experience and interpret the text.
I can honestly say Davy exceeded my expectations, and his service was well
worth the (notably reasonable) price. I will definitely be reaching out to Davy for my next project."
Neil Adam Ray
Author of A Storm of Shattered Silver
"I reached out to several copyeditors before finally choosing Davy, and to be honest, it was an easy choice to make. From start to finish, he was polite, professional, knowledgeable, and extremely quick, which helped me to produce my book ahead of schedule. I needed a thorough clean-up of my manuscript, and Davy delivered that and so much more. He brought his editorial wisdom, style savvy, and years of experience to bear on my manuscript, and I couldn’t be more delighted with the results. Thank you, Davy, for taking such good care of my book."
Anna V. Leigh
Author of The Russian Girl
"Having never used a professional editor for my work before, I was a little nervous and uncertain of what to expect. Davy made the process absolutely painless. He was incredibly fast, incredibly thorough, and very professional through the entire process. I will most certainly be recommending him to anyone I know looking to have something edited!"
Katelynn E Koontz
Author of GOD NOT GOD
"It took me a long time to find the right editor and I have struck gold with Ember Editing. I do not normally gush, but Davy did an amazing job. He is professional, thorough and a pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend him enough."
Anna Albo
Author of This Much Is True
"Just wanted to say thank you, Davy, for such a fantastic job of editing my book Counter Punch. I had actually rewritten it 2x and ran it through Grammarly, but there was so much that was missed by me (and Grammarly) that you caught. I appreciate the quality of the edit, the great price, quick turnaround and your professionalism. I had written the book in Vellum, then exported to .rtf. I do not have Word, but the edits in Google Docs were seamless. I expected to spend days editing the book from your notes, but it only took a few hours. Will use you again."
Patrice Williams Marks
Author of Counter Punch
"Davy was upbeat, friendly and professional throughout all our communication. He was respectful of my request to focus on proofreading only, and did not try to impose on our voice and artistic choices. He provided prompt feedback and answered all my questions and did not try to oversell me on services I did not need. Overall, he was a refreshing change from some of the other services I requested quotes and received samples from. Once he reviewed the manuscript he made sure to explain the changes he made for consistency clearly and concisely. I would definitely recommend hiring his services."
John L Reed
Author of A Voice of Thunder
"I hired Davy to proofread my latest novel, and he did a wonderful job. He corrected a long list of errors I’d let slip through the cracks without hampering my voice. Not to mention he was quick, responsive, and very helpful. He turned a daunting experience into a pleasant one."
