Author Testimonials

  • “Working with Radiant Editorial has been the best decision of my career. The process was thorough, professional, and so much fun!”

    ~ C.L. Briar, Author of the Storm of Chaos and Shadows series

  • “From the moment I met Samantha, she’s been the most kind and supportive person. She offered to help me with whatever I may need, and I asked her to beta read my debut novel. She helped me fix my blurb, left so many helpful in line comments, and filled out my beta form with such honesty. She caught things I wouldn’t have caught. She also pointed out places in the plot that maybe didn’t make to the most sense to a reader but had made sense to me as the writer. I’m so glad I was able to work with her and hope to work with her in the future too!”

    ~ Maddie Leigh, Author of The Secrets of Pine Holler
