Mandy is extraordinary!
We actually don’t say ‘Mandy’, but “la précieuse Mandy”. She approaches each new project, big or small, with the same enthusiasm and creativity, always aiming for the best and working hard to make the cover or inside pages as nice and impactful as possible. She maintains this high level of requirement throughout the project, from the very beginning to the very end, suggesting all along possible improvements to the layout and to the interaction between text and illustrations. She is also of invaluable help for suggesting illustrators, and for interacting with them.She is incredibly professional and reliable, always ensuring the schedule is kept on track. And on top of all this, she is a really, really nice person to work with.Thank you Mandy, we were so lucky the day we found you!

Creative and working to budget
Mandy has been such a fantastic designer for our project. She's an absolute delight to work with and provided exactly the right clarity, creativity and attention to detail that the project required, communicating brilliantly with everyone. As an added bonus, she was completely clear about her costs and worked exactly to budget. I’ve no hesitation in saying her talent and experience would be a huge asset to any project – thanks a million, Mandy!"

Hands-on, no-nonsense project management
As a first-time self published childrens’ author, Mandy’s help and experience was invaluable throughout the process. It quickly became clear that the project wasn’t going to get done without professional help. Mandy was able to introduce me to an editor and was then able to essentially project manage the whole thing, working seamlessly with the editor, illustrator, printers and myself. Mandy has a hands-on, no-nonsense approach, able to provide a guiding hand when necessary, but is also sensitive to what the project means for someone like me, an inexperienced first-time self-published author! I can’t recommend Mandy highly enough.
