Take their word for it...

Reach the Editors
​"You are this book's fairy godmother."​
     -Jennifer Gandin Le, Author and Screenwriter


"Samantha Bohrman is an excellent editor. Her strengths lie in big picture edits such as character and pacing. She has the adept eye of providing guidance with her notes that respects and keeps with the writer’s voice and vision. I can’t recommend her enough as an editor."
     - Roselle Lim, Author Represented by Jenny Bent

"I have worked with Cristina and Sam on several novels and am continually impressed by the caliber of their editing. Their keen, insightful editing suggestions have elevated both my writing and my books. I can't imagine putting out a book without first having their eyes on it."
  
     -Kristi Belcamino, Author 

"I am so delighted with the script, but so sad to be finished with this delightful process! You were a dream to work with... thoughtful, professional, calm, supportive."
                 -Gail Rosenblum, Roseberry Entertainment


"I very rarely write reviews, but the testimonials are what brought me to Sam and Cristina, so I felt I should pay it forward. Both of these amazing women are incredibly personable, and never once made me feel like the inexperienced writer I am. They bolstered my confidence, provided feedback that greatly enhanced my characters and my story, and were very present throughout the process. I feel like they have become as invested in my project as I am, and that support has been instrumental in driving me forward. I started out using a service, but ended up with mentors--something I never anticipated but for which I am incredibly grateful. If my manuscript gets published, it will be because of their extensive input. If it doesn't, I have gained a renewed sense of joy in my work that I thought was long gone, which, ultimately, is infinitely more valuable."
     -Dr. Alexandra Winter, Author 

"I can't recommend ManuFixed enough! Their edits are concise and clear, including both line-by-line feedback and overall suggestions in the edit letter. I especially appreciated their knack for brainstorming ideas for my book, and their willingness to answer all of my questions. Additionally, I was impressed by the fast turn-around and attention to detail. No matter what stage of editing your book is at, ManuFixed can help, since their services range from the technical to overarching advice on plot and characters. Their feedback is kind and encouraging, but also right on target. You're in good hands."
     -Katherine Toran, Author


"Do you need on-point edits, critical feedback on your storyline or plot arc and want it done in a timely and affordable fashion? ManuFixers are your gals! First off, your edits were awesome and cut the word count in a way that didn't lose any meaning or flow. Bravo! I appreciate it immensely. I was at a total loss as to what could go without killing what I had. Second, your developmental commentary was AMAZING! It got me even more excited about this story, which I wouldn't have thought was possible."
     -Kaeleigh MacDonald, Author

"Cristina’s insight and thoughtful suggestions on my picture book we’re invaluable. She helped me see my story through new eyes allowing me to make changes and ultimately improve the story. I couldn’t be happier with my ManuFixed book!"
    -Colleen Darby, Author and Illustrator


"I really admire your professionalism, turning this around quickly but thoroughly. I love having two editors to give me your separate but complimentary perspectives!" 
      - Joanell Serra, Author

"When I contacted Sam and Cristina with my manuscript, I said I wanted to figure out what my book was supposed to be. It was a little terrifying to be edited. I was in safe hands. Sam and Cristina understood what the book was about and their suggestions were all about making it better  — not making it a different kind of book. Their critique was constructive and included specific, implementable fixes. They also gave very clear feedback about what was working, which is especially difficult to come by for a writer at the start of her career. And because of their qualifications and professionalism, I have confidence in the quality of their feedback I might not have gotten elsewhere. Highly recommended."
     -M.K. Anderson, Author

"Every time I work with Cristina, my love for storytelling grows even deeper. My characters come to life when I work with her, and I feel more confident as a writer with her guidance."
      -Maribeth Romslo, Filmmaker, Director and Screenwriter

"TVWriter™ is continually barraged by with requests from people asking us to recommend a solid, reliable editorial service to help writers prepare their teleplays, screenplays, literary manuscripts as such. We’ve never stepped into that trap because such recommendations are fraught with peril. Now, though, we’ve found a service we’re happy to step up to the plate for. It’s called ManuFixed."
     -Larry Brody, TVWriter.com

"I would never have finished my scripts if I hadn't worked with Cristina. What would have taken me years to not finish got done in 2 months. She's a great brainstormer and guide who gets behind your vision and enables you to see the path for your story. Can't recommend enough!"
     -Matt Hyams, Screenwriter and Comic

"I’ve been working with Cristina for 2 years. In that time, I’ve written 2 full length screenplays and just started my third. We meet (by phone) weekly, and our meetings never fail to leave me feeling motivated to continue.  She gives thoughtful and helpful notes and asks meaningful questions that really help me get at whatever story I’m trying to tell.  She helps on weeks when I’ve written a lot, and on weeks that I feel stuck.  I am struck by her ability to both look and help with the macro level stuff like the themes and structure, and her ability to really drill down into a scene to even a single word choice.  I am amazed by how well she knows my work — it never feels like she is winging it.  I am certain that I wouldn’t have completed a screenplay at all, let alone be starting my third without Cristina.  More than that, I’ve gotten very positive feedback from the industry, which I wasn’t expecting as a relative newcomer to screenwriting."
      -JNK, Screenwriter

"I recently had my manuscript Thread of a Spider edited by Manufixers, and was thrilled with the results. The suggestions Sam offered were spot on. I knew something was missing, but not until I read her edits did I realize how much better my story would be with just a few changes. Sam also gave me much encouragement when I was about to give up on the story altogether. After the concept edits she helped me with my query which I'm anxious to send off, and also worked with me in designing some Twitter pitches for a few competitions. One pitch grabbed a full request immediately. I appreciated the TLC and enthusiasm that was put into my work! I'm very grateful for the insight Manufixed offers and look forward to seeing their edits for future manuscripts."
