Testimonials

Mindi is my top choice
when selecting an editor.

She is well-versed, thorough, and does well editing even the most complex content. 

 

We met with a client in June [2018], and Mindi was professional and lovely. Most of my other editors have 20+ years of experience, and some still have areas for improvement. However, Mindi is skilled beyond her years, provides updates, delivers on time (usually early), is adaptable to any genre, and manages her time well. I’m always pleased with her work, and highly recommend her. 

​

—Michelle Morse

Founder and CEO of
Inspire on Purpose Book Publishing

Mindi Machart, a brilliant editor, showed her patience with me and her dedication to the book . . .

. . . by editing it three times, due to my incessant desire to change bits and pieces. I am extremely grateful for her advice and conscientious work—especially late one despairing Friday night for recovering all the edits I had lost.

​

—Ian Palmer

Author of FracMan Conflicted
and The Shale Controversy

Thank you to my amazing copyeditor, Mindi Machart.

—Rea Frey

Author of When She's Gone

Mindi showed a true interest in my work and has such a happy spirit.

I found Mindi through a mutual friend who had seen her work before and recommended her as an editor. Mindi edited about 10 blog posts for me. She was quick, precise, and very pleasant to work with. She explained each of her edit suggestions and gave me feedback on my work.

​

You can tell that Mindi not only edits because she is amazing at it and has a true gift for it, but also because she lives what she does. I will certainly be using her again and refer her to anyone looking for an editor. Thank you Mindi for all of your passion, hard work, and positive energy!

​

—Kendall Stanley

Health Blogger and Nutrition Coach

If you have the chance to work with Mindi, consider yourself incredibly fortunate.

She is one of those rare professionals who elevate their craft to an art form. Some might call such individuals geniuses; others, maestros. Mindi embodies both when it comes to editing.

She transformed my first contemporary fiction manuscript into something I could truly be proud of, and she did so with extraordinary grace. Her feedback is thoughtful, compassionate, and meticulously detailed—leaving no stone unturned. Her prompt and clear communication made every step of the process seamless, turning what could have been a daunting journey into a rewarding collaboration.

Beyond her technical expertise, Mindi’s kindness and wisdom stand out. When I struggled with self-doubt, she went out of her way to offer guidance that grounded me and helped me move forward with renewed confidence.

Working with Mindi is not just about improving your manuscript—it’s about growing as a writer. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone embarking on their writing journey or seeking to further enhance their craft. You won’t regret it.

 

—Yong Kim

CEO of Wonolo and emerging author of
coming-of-age novel When River Loves Deborah

Mindi was highly detailed, and her comments demonstrated a thorough understanding of the CMoS rules.

Mindi provided a line edit on my 80,000 word memoir and did a fantastic job!


I plan to use Mindi on future projects.

​

—Phil Fretwell

Author of Savage Marriage

Mindi has proven herself to be consistent, knowledgeable, and very efficient in her editing style.

I began working with Mindi Machart in February 2017. She has edited an 83,000 word novel for me and is currently editing my next project, which will be approximately 90,000 words when completed in May.

​

I’m always pleased with the effort she puts into her work and feel I receive the best product. She is not only prompt but routinely finishes ahead of my time schedule.

​

I highly recommend Mindi. She will be an asset to any position she undertakes in the future.

​

—Stacey Zink

Christian Fiction Author

Mindi goes above and beyond.

There will never be a project too big or too small for Mindi. From marketing research papers and websites to social media posts and emails, Mindi has been my go-to girl for editing in both my personal and professional life for the past three years.

 

Mindi is deeply knowledgeable about a variety of subjects and is fearless when approaching any industry. Her unique ability to alternate between an editor's and the audience's perspective is crucial when I am trying to communicate out-of-the-box solutions to complex issues. Mindi's comprehensive approach to editing allows her work product to be flawless.

 

I have been very pleased with Mindi's work product, creativity, promptness and communication. I highly recommend her for any project you may have.
