What our clients say

“One of my lifelong dreams was to write a fiction novel. After nearly five years of work, I am about to publish one. My first contact in the company was the editor, founder, and CEO, Doctor Linda Tucker. She proved to be a priceless asset not only because of her knowledge but also because of her energetic personality. My editor, Doctor Shannin Schroeder, was equally priceless — patient and informative, and available both via the internet and by phone. She helped shape my novel into something far greater than I imagined it would be. Their services were amazingly affordable — before finding Cup & Quill, a local publisher wanted to charge me roughly three times as much.”

“Cup & Quill Editing & Publication Services LLC was phenomenal to work with. I was paired with an editor, Jane Theriault, who is an expert in APA and understood methodologies very well. This pairing proved to be imperative for my research manuscript. The resulting work was a high quality, publishable academic paper. I cannot say thank you enough to Linda and her team.”

“As a first time author, I knew I needed a professional set of eyes to review my novel. Linda put me in touch with Michael Levitt. When I received his edit and his suggestions for plot development, I was really impressed — the time and effort he put into my novel far exceeded what I was expecting. I'd give them a 12 on a scale of 1 to 10! My novel is far better as a result of Michael's efforts and expertise.”

“Working with editor Dr. Shannin Schroeder of Cup & Quill on my debut book Becoming A Better Man has been an absolute joy. It can be extremely intimidating putting such deeply personal work out into the world. Shannin worked with me through the entire editing process, respected my voice, and challenged me where necessary. When I became stuck, we took the relationship further, and Shannin coached me weekly through the final edits to complete my manuscript.”

“I came upon Cup & Quill through search engine algorithms, but I can't imagine having been directed by a human hand to a better resource for professional editing. Skilled in both formal structure and the flexibility that language allows, the manuscript that resulted from editor Dr. Shannin Schroeder's caring attention is one that I am proud of beyond measure.”

“After interviewing at least six other companies, Cup & Quill editor Mike Leavitt was the perfect fit for me. As a writer, finding the perfect copy editor is almost as difficult as finding the perfect date. Cup & Quill exceeded my expectations, and I am so pleased. Brilliant? Incredibly. Funny? Absolutely. Diplomatic? Thank God. Thank you for making a nerve-racking process not only doable but enjoyable and educational.”

“Linda was the quickest to respond and she was very relatable and professional. She took my kids' book manuscript and very promptly returned it to me with all of the wonderful editing that turned it quickly into a book ready for print. The upgrades she included put finishing touches in place to bring cohesion to the story and help me captivate my readers' imaginations and hearts.”

“This is my first short story that I wanted to publish. After speaking with Linda, I felt confident that Cup & Quill would be able to help me publish. My editor Rebecca not only did a great job going through my manuscript, but also gave honest feedback on her overall thoughts. I will be coming back for editing on my next short story, and have already recommended others to seek this company out.”

“I want to extend my heartfelt thank you to Rebecca! She gave of herself as she coached me and turned my words into a beautiful work of art. She was patient, kind, and a true professional. I highly recommend this talented editor to anyone who is seeking excellence.”

“Rebecca was great to work with. Her insights and questions pinpointed the weak areas of my story, which led to a stronger narrative. She exceeded my expectations and I will be working with Cup & Quill again.”

“Linda took my mangled grammar and, with her understanding of the subject matter and her amazing ability to rewrite, she recreated a document that I am now able to send to others to solicit collaboration on a project that is very important to me.”

“C&Q Editing was supremely helpful in my quest to write and publish my first book. The one-on-one coaching sessions were insightful and constructive in the completion of my book. The personal connection I felt while working with the C&Q editors was perfect and took the stress out of the writing process.”

“Linda has been able to bring information out of me that I didn't know was there. I highly recommend her to anyone needing coaching to write their first book or 100th.”

“I was originally looking for a ghostwriter, but after my consultation with Linda, she showed me how important it was to write my own perspective. It has proven to be very therapeutic for me, and in these few short months I have found strength and growth thanks to the coaching and guidance I've received from Linda.”

“I am an engineering professional and needed help to proofread some articles which a non-engineering person can understand. Cup & Quill gave me an appointment the same day and the articles were returned the same week. Very happy with the work.”

“Linda was fantastic to work with in writing my first book. She was professional and thorough in her work! I would definitely recommend her services.”

“I was very impressed with how quickly she responded to my requests and the turnaround time on the project. She guided me through the steps, gave me a completion date, and finished before that date. I really liked how clear she was about pricing — other people I contacted didn't give specific prices or timelines up front. If I need editing services again, I will be going straight back to her!”

“They are pros. Copyediting was perfect, helpful writing suggestions were thrown in for free.”

“Proofreading at its finest! Working with this proofreader was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Their attention to detail, professionalism, and commitment to excellence were evident in every edit they made. They not only caught errors and improved clarity, but also preserved the original voice and intent of the writing. Communication was prompt, deadlines were met exactly as promised, and the entire process was smooth and efficient.

“Working with Linda at Cup & Quill Services for Writers has been an incredibly rewarding experience. From the beginning, she has taken the time to understand both my writing goals and the vision for my book. Her guidance not only helped me move my project forward, but also used her expertise to strengthen my writing skills and pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of. Linda's coaching has strengthened me as a writer. I better understand storytelling, structure, and overall writing techniques. She has a unique ability to encourage growth while still honoring your individual voice as a writer. I truly appreciate her patience, professionalism, and dedication to my project.

That call was from Linda Tucker, from Cup & Quill Services. We spoke for over 30 minutes, diving into what my needs are and what my financial situation is. I highly recommend Linda, she took the time to go over many different options and was able to give me advice that I will be forever grateful for. There is no hard sell here, just pure honest feedback. To be honest, I don't need to look any further, and neither should you!”
