Testimonials

I’ve been a client of Isy’s since lockdown 2020, and I’ve found her to be incredibly approachable and supportive. In the course of two years, she’s negotiated seven book deals for me, and I know that she’s on my side when it comes to negotiations. I also find it reassuring that she keeps me informed on the latest on my projects. Finding Isy and Creative Authors has been really beneficial to my writing career!
