Was a bad experience from day one. Unprofessional, bad communication, and felt as though I was speaking to robots. Something didn’t feel right from day one. When I asked them for a refund and began to terminate the relationship my contact point actually sent me an email asking for a second chance while relating the email to events in my book and etc. One big mistake, the book she was referencing in the email was NOT even my book. Completely confirmed my reservations about this company as a whole. It is like being shoved into an assembly line and person touch is non existent. BEWARE…. You have been warned. I switched to another publisher and the difference was palatable. Look elsewhere.

We’re disappointed to read this review, particularly because it presents a very one-sided account of what occurred. While we fully respect the client’s decision to discontinue our services, we do not believe the review fairly represents the work, communication, and support provided throughout the engagement. The reference to the wrong book in one follow-up email was an unfortunate administrative error, and we acknowledge that it should not have happened. However, one such mistake does not reasonably support the broader claims that our company is “unprofessional,” that clients are treated like an “assembly line,” or that there is no personal involvement. Our records show that our team communicated with the client, worked on the requested publishing services, and made a genuine effort to address their concerns when they requested to terminate the relationship. The request for a “second chance” was made precisely because we wanted to resolve the concerns and retain the client—not because we were unwilling to provide personal support. We also find the statement “BEWARE” particularly unfair when presented without the full context of the engagement. We respect that the client ultimately chose another publisher, but that personal decision should not be presented as evidence that our company failed to provide legitimate publishing services. We welcome prospective clients to review our broader customer feedback and make their own informed assessment. We wish the client success with their book and future publishing journey. At the same time, we stand behind the professionalism and efforts of our team and remain committed to improving wherever genuine shortcomings are identified.

While completing work for a non-profit organization Aurora Writers missed deadlines, provided poor work quality and ultimately provided an unusable product. I would strongly recommend looking into other editing companies as their staff was rude and dismissive during the process. When a refund was requested for the services that were not rendered, they failed to provide it.
Response from Aurora WritersOct 7, 2026
We respectfully disagree with the allegations in your review, as they do not reflect the documented history of your project. You received the agreed services and deliverables, and the timeline for the final printed copies was affected by the multiple additional editing and formatting revisions you requested. These revisions were accommodated at no additional cost, as your package included multiple rounds of revisions. The work was delivered according to the manuscript, formatting, and specifications approved by you. We also strongly disagree with the characterization of our team as “rude and dismissive.” Our team remained available throughout the project and worked through your requested revisions and approvals. Likewise, the statement that the services were “not rendered” is inaccurate, as the project records document the work completed and deliverables provided. We respect that you were ultimately dissatisfied with the experience, but we cannot agree with allegations that do not align with the documented project history. We stand by the work delivered and the professional efforts made by our team throughout your project.

We are a not for profit organisation and paid in advance for their editorial services and the printing of 50 hard copies of a practitioners guide book. We ultimately received one out of the three proof copies they said they had sent (they lied about the date sent, as the couriers receipt showed) and the price of the postage had to eventually be paid for by us, then it arrived to the wrong address, with the wrong name on the address. They made so many errors in their handling of our project and in their management of the process, the book was appalling quality, they introduced editing errors and formatting issues. Eventually we told them we wanted to terminate the contract and receive a refund. After a lot of pushback, they eventually agreed to this. To date, they have not refunded any of the agreed amount. This has been 6 months now and they have cited issues with the IRS to cash flow as reasons for not paying, they have missed 3 deadlines and have now ceased to return calls.

We’re sorry that you were dissatisfied with your experience, but we would like to clarify several points in your review for the benefit of anyone reading it. Regarding the proof copies, three proof copies were sent to you, not one. Our standard process is to provide physical proofs after the digital manuscript has been reviewed and approved by the client. In your project, the proofs were sent following your approval of the digital manuscript so you could review the physical presentation before proceeding with the final 50-copy print run. We also respectfully disagree with the suggestion that the project deadlines were missed without context. The final 50-copy printing timeline was affected by multiple additional editing and formatting revisions requested by you. Our package includes multiple rounds of revisions at no additional cost, and we accommodated those requests so the final manuscript and formatting could reflect your requirements before proceeding with production. There were also no ongoing communication issues as suggested in the review. Our team remained available throughout the project and worked through the requested revisions and approvals. The project records, proof shipments, client approvals, and revision history provide important context that is not reflected in the review. We respect your decision to share your experience, but we believe the documented history of the project presents a more complete picture. We remain committed to providing professional service and supporting our clients through the revision and publishing process.

Ruby Miller was a fantastic asset to help make my work become a published product. After doing a thorough review of companies, the one item I focused on were the people. Employers that remember, recite, and develop a timely game plan, to me is what separates excellent companies to the average company. Aurora has done very well with the investment of their employees. For those that are out there, looking to finish their manuscript into a recognized publication, please consider my advice.

Jason closely attended my ideas for a cover to my chapbook, Plumb Lines and produced an elegant design that complented the contents of my book to a tee. I could not be more pleased. Thank you Jason! Edison Jennings

My contact is Ruby and she has been patient and thorough during this process. I truly appreciate having her take the time to go over everything with me. Being a first-time author, it felt very intimidating at first.
