What My Clients Say

Testimonials from writers I’ve worked closely with on projects.

Anya Anti

Working with Deegy has been amazing. I’m not a writer by any means and never learned how to do it properly. But I often have to do it for articles and educational purposes. Deegy really knows how to make my writing better. He fixes mistakes and gives great ideas on how to make my writing clearer, more interesting and overall much better. I definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their storytelling abilities.

Creative Portrait Concepts

Karen Vikke

I worked with Deegy when I created an e-book about minimalistic photography. It was a pleasure to have Deegy by my side in the process. He was really professional and did excellent work as an editor. He was easy to communicate with and quickly understood who I was and how he should help in the process. I felt comfortable, and the way he gave feedback to me when I had written something new was always with respect. He also gave a lot of support with my English not being so good, so I could just concentrate on getting the points out. I highly recommend Deegy as an editor.

Urban Smartphone Minimalism

Iwona Podlasińska

Working with Deegy was an absolute pleasure. Not only was he a true professional with a keen eye for detail, but his warmth and approachability made the entire editing process seamless. He was consistently available and meticulously adhered to the schedule, ensuring deadlines were met without sacrificing quality. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, my ebook achieved a level of refinement that I could not have accomplished alone. I wholeheartedly recommend Deegy Dallong to anyone seeking a skilled editor who genuinely cares about their project.
