Kind words from editing clients

Red Feather Publishing is definitely a stand out business, especially with an amazing lady like Karen at the helm. It is a business that provides all the necessary assistance to make your journey of having a book published so much more easier. Karen’s knowledge, patience, expertise and above all her very caring and kind personality helps you to navigate through what sometimes can be a very challenging and overwhelming process.
We had a book published by Karen in memory of our beautiful daughter, Simone, who graced our world for such a short time but who managed to achieve a myriad of accolades despite her challenges.
Karen provided that emotional platform necessary throughout the long endeavour with overwhelming support. Karen is a good listener and skilfully evened out all the creases to make the book flow easily whenever we hit a stumbling block. Karen is an outstanding person and I am so thankful to have had her in my life.
They say the power of one can make a difference … Karen certainly proved that. I very highly recommend Red Feather Publishing… having Karen's expertise to guide you, I know she will endeavour to make your book a roaring success.

Karen Peradon-Alaga has been a delight to work with, from inception to publication of my work "Related By Water", an almost 600 page novel, published and written in 2023. Karen empowered me, encouraged my moments of doubt or fluctuation in storyline, to full confidence. Her editing ability was flawless. Her technical skill was exact. Her assertive advice in plot or editing was executed with gentle firmness to result in a piece of work that others have felt engaged by, or been affirmed by.

Karen has walked me through the stages of turning my rough drafts into a polished book. She has shared her time, talents and wisdom generously. It has been a great pleasure to know her, and I highly recommend her to any new writers.

Karen is amazing! She edited my manuscript through several revisions, formatted it beautifully for eBook and Paperback and then held my hand through the whole self-publishing process. Her supportive and friendly approach made it far less stressful than it otherwise might have been. Thanks Karen!

Karen at Red Feather provided the absolute best service. Always quick to respond and ready with helpful advice. Her service made publishing my first book an enjoyable process. I will definitely use Karen again for my future writing projects..

Karen Peradon proof-read my entire 225-page book manuscript in 2019. She did such an excellent job in correcting and editing my language that my publisher, Edward Elgar (UK), had a much easier time in their final copy-editing of the work. Karen’s style is that while she takes good care of the language aspect, she ensures that improvement of English words and expressions is sorely intended to help the author better convey what he/she wants to convey. She is also very timely and charges reasonably. My observation is shared by some Ph.D students whose work was also checked and improved by Karen.
