Testimonials

Jade Angeles Fitton
author of Hermit

Zennor has a genius for honing in on what the true story of the book is, where the focus should be. She seemingly instinctively senses the shape of a book with an omnipotence a writer too close to the page is unable to.

Zennor is a sensible, sensitive guide with a gimlet eye for detail, gently nudging when a writer might have gone off course, while maintaining the all-important for a writer: faith and encouragement. I can say from experience that if she is your editor you are in a very safe pair of hands.

Ashley James, author of Bimbo

Working with Zennor gave me the confidence to finally put pen to page and write my book. I’d already put so much of myself into the manuscript, but she helped me step back and see the bigger picture without losing my voice.

 

She asked thoughtful, sometimes uncomfortable questions, but always with kindness and purpose. I never felt edited out of my own work; I felt more confident, focused, and clearer about what I was trying to say and why it mattered.

Eva zu Beck, author of The Wilder Way

Zennor was an invaluable editor and creative guide throughout the making of my first book, The Wilder Way. She helped me shape a deeply personal story and pushed me to go beyond documenting places and journeys. She taught me just how important it is to reveal the emotional spine beneath the travel.

 

I am certain that her insight, sensitivity and editorial rigour will help transform any literary project into an impactful story.

William Hanson, author of Just Good Manners and Help! I Sexted My Boss

Zennor edited two of my books with her intelligence, rigour and warmth and it was a genuine pleasure to have her believe in me not once, but twice. She combines forensic editorial precision with an instinctive understanding of voice, tone and audience.

 

Every manuscript was sharper, funnier, and more confident because of her involvement. She is calm under pressure, exacting in standards, and a genuine pleasure to work with.

Ben Brusey, Publishing Director at Penguin Random House UK

An outstanding non-fiction editor and coach, with a rare blend of editorial vision, commercial nous and wholehearted commitment to authors and their books.

Reedsy author

Zennor provided a thoughtful, rigorous editorial assessment that engaged seriously with both the strengths and structural challenges of my manuscript. Her feedback was clear, specific and respectful of voice, with particularly helpful insights into pacing, repetition and narrative arc.

 

I found the report both encouraging and demanding in the right ways, and it’s given me a strong framework for revision. I’d happily recommend her to authors looking for honest, professional feedback.
