See what our clients have to say about the editors of WordWiser Ink.

“I was anxious about trusting someone with a project I’d worked so hard to create, but the timeliness and quality of the finished product put those worries to rest immediately. The edits took my story to the next level, and Tia was flexible when my manuscript was delayed for government review — she scheduled me for the next available opening without missing a beat.”

Derrick M. JacksonAuthor of Shadow One

“As a Black author, I was looking for a Black editor who understood the Black perspective — and I found that with Sherian. I was worried at first that my work wouldn’t be good enough, but her feedback showed me the copyediting was taking it to the next level. The whole process was open, communicative, and transparent, and it was huge in my journey to finally get my novel published.”

Jabari LambAuthor of You’re Being Watched: The Eyes From Above

“As a Black author, I was afraid an editor would take away my specific voice — some of my characters are Black, and I needed their way of speaking to stay authentic rather than get smoothed over. That fear eased quickly; the feedback was honest and straight to the point, and we even shared a few laughs along the way. I’d spent years searching for the right fit, and I finally found it.”

Author of the Aegean Chronicles

“I chose WordWiser Ink because I make it a point to support Black-owned businesses whenever I can, and the experience more than lived up to that decision. Communication and efficiency stood out immediately — Tamira is so sharp that I’ve stopped double-checking her edits altogether. I just accept the changes and publish. Easy as pie.”

Anthony MartinOwner, Hiero Media Company

“I was worried my writing wasn’t good quality, but Sherian eased those concerns right away — she even told me how much she enjoyed the story. Throughout the process she stayed in constant communication and provided a style sheet along with a final review. As a Black female author writing a Black female lead, it mattered to me to work with someone who could relate to both me and my character, and WordWiser Ink was the perfect fit.”

April BosticRomance Author

“Cost was my biggest worry going in, and being offered a payment plan I could pay in three installments made all the difference. Beyond the copyediting itself, Sherian’s honest feedback was invaluable, and my project came out so much more polished because of her work. I’d recommend this service to any writer.”

Tamika Forrester

“My concerns eased the moment Tamira reached out — she was precise, communicated well, and made my project feel like it truly mattered to her. I was specifically looking for a Black-owned business, or at minimum someone with a similar background who could understand the story on a deeper level. That’s exactly what I found.”

Damon C. CollinsAuthor of The Best Struggle Ever

“I was hesitant at first about submitting my documents through the website rather than sending them directly to someone, but that was my only reservation — everything else was handled professionally. Tamira’s feedback was concise yet thorough, exactly the kind of critique that will elevate the book. I’ll definitely be using her services again.”

Renee Afryka

“Prolific, profound, prompt, professional and precise are just a few words I use to describe Tia. For over 26 years, Tia has been my go-to for her extraordinary writing and editing talents. She’s the teacher’s teacher when it comes to any and everything writing or editing.”

Rod Warner

“Before I met Tia, trying to find an editor I could build a relationship with who understood my projects and maintain my voice as a writer was a nightmare. Not only did Tia improve the readability of my book with her precise attention to detail and word usage, she helped me identify my most common writing errors and taught me how to correct them.”

Ashley Sauls

“I love how Tia’s choice of words are so accurate. It is absolutely amazing how I wrote something one way and she made it sound more professional and exciting to read! I never felt like ‘just a client’ — more like a partner, due to her warm, inviting spirit.”

Trish Hill
