"Allison is a brilliant editor. She is exceedingly gifted, and my book will be so much the better for all her help. I’ve used her a lot, but she always manages to astound me with her insights. She understands story structure and characterization so well and has an amazing ability to find creative solutions to story issues. I love that she not only points out things that could be improved, but she also gives excellent suggestions for how the scene could work better or even for adding new scenes completely. She is always encouraging and so pleasant to work with, and she excels both at big-picture edits and proofreading. I highly recommend her!"

"Allison Wright is professional, quick, and very personable. She’s also a damn good editor capable of editing multiple genres, no matter how odd (I write sci-fi fantasy LitRPG). She has been an absolute pleasure to work with, she cares about your characters as much as you do, and I couldn’t recommend her more!"
— Harmon Cooper, author of the House of Dolls series

"I was very impressed with the quality of the developmental edit. I received some unbelievably useful suggestions for making the story more cohesive, increasing tension and streamlining the plot. Allison’s plot doctor skills are amazing. I knew the middle of my plot dragged and felt repetitive, but I couldn’t fix it. In a few days, Allison not only understood what I was aiming for, but she identified the elements that let my story down and made suggestions on how to make it pop. I’ll be back for her advice on my next book!"

"I would absolutely recommend Allison as an editor. Her thoughtful copy edits improved the flow of my prose and made it a million times more readable. Allison is so detailed that she even caught a subtle inconsistency in the dialogue for one of my characters, and she fixed it to perfectly match their voice. Needless to say, her ability to fine-tune even the smallest details left me impressed. The passion she has for her craft is made clear by her genuine interest in the product, high-quality work, quick response time, and personable attitude. My novel would not be what it is without Allison’s assistance, and I’m looking forward to working with her more in the future."

"If I could rate her a million stars, I would! Before I chose Allison Erin Wright as my editor, I scoped out many other potentials and read their reviews. After the process of elimination, it was between her and three or four others. With a body full of anxiety, I sent a few thousand words to her for a sample edit so I could see if we would be compatible, and that was all it took. Without her, my first novel, Royal Pains, would not be as immaculate as it is. She cleaned it up and made it sparkle, and I could not have been any more impressed than I was once I did a final read through of my edited novel. She is currently editing my novel Neenah Fynn, which is part of a series, and I cannot wait for it to be complete! I cannot imagine a future of publishing my novels without her as my editor. I’m keeping her for the long haul! If you are looking for an editor, look no further. You will NOT be disappointed with her editing work."

"It’s nearly impossible to describe how much and in how many ways Allison has helped me as a writer. I’ve had many editors in the past and none of them have matched her abilities, talents, sensibilities and obvious efforts. I’ve worked with Allison on a number of books now and in each case she takes a careful and personal interest in my work. She highlights the areas where I am strong and effective and provides expert critique to story ineffectiveness, as well as providing excellent solutions to plot and character development. Allison stands out from other editors in another area that has made the difference for me unequivocally. When she is providing difficult feedback she always does so in a warm and supportive manner. Her awesome style has helped me keep my confidence up as writer and pushed me forward in this most difficult of tasks. I am currently publishing my books on Amazon and without Allison’s support I’m honestly not sure I could have done it. I plan to work with Allison on future books for as long as she’ll work with me.

"Allison is an excellent editor. She is able to pinpoint where and how things could be improved, while reassuring an author about what works and does not need fixing. I worked with Allison on a fantasy trilogy containing both comedic scenes and serious themes. Her thoughtful, detailed suggestions on multiple plotlines and character arcs were incredibly helpful. Allison’s copy/line edits have improved prose while keeping tone and style consistent. She was especially good at maintaining character voice when editing dialogue. In addition to her editorial skills, Allison is so pleasant and easy to work with. I highly recommend her."

"Honeycomb Editing has done an amazing job with developmental editing for my novels, highlighting both the strengths and weaknesses of each story in perfect balance. I never felt crushed under the weight of recommended improvements from Allison so much as encouraged to pursue them to take a good story and make it great."
— Jason Abofsky, author of Celoven: STORMCHASER

"Allison is an absolute delight to work with. We have worked together for some time now, and she is amazing at smoothing out my words, ensuring my writing is grammatically correct and flows while maintaining my author voice. She offers great advice on what may or may not be working and is one of my most enthusiastic readers! Working with Allison is easy – she is professional, personable, and her communication around deadlines and bookings is fantastic. I wouldn’t go anywhere else for my editing needs!"
— Georgina Makalani, author of The Last Dragon Skin Chronicles

"Allison gives very thoughtful and encouraging feedback. Her insight has helped me to better develop both the themes and characters in my novels, and her attention to detail delivers a polished manuscript. She is friendly and professional, and seems to truly care about her clients and their work. I’m very happy to have found her!"
— Anna Benoit, author of When We Were Young

"I have worked with Allison for over a year and a half now, and I credit her with massively improving my ability to write. She not only edited my work, but has also acted as a sounding board and a writing coach to me over the time we’ve worked together. I will continue to use her services, and recommend her to anyone else looking to have their stories professionally edited!"
— Riley Morrison, author of the Lost Sun series

"Allison is a fantastic content editor. I was having a very hard time deciding a path forward in a few areas of my story and she offered some wonderful ideas that got my creative juices flowing again. In addition, she went through the story line by line, commenting in-depth on every little detail. Her advice to change this, omit that and move this paragraph to a more appropriate place helps to make the whole story flow seamlessly and also to make better sense. I am very glad I came across someone who diligently puts so much thought into someone else’s work. I highly recommend Allison and will definitely reach out to her again."
