Testimonials
Andrew encouraged me to develop my ideas from ‘workshop to hardback’ – Cognitive Therapy for Addiction was my first book and Andrew proved to be an excellent commissioning editor. He gave me space and time to develop my ideas while keeping me focused on the deadline – he has a real talent for spotting innovations that can develop the applied psychology field
Andy is the best editor I’ve ever worked with, he challenged & supported me, while also giving me the freedom to write the book I wanted to write. Most crucially, he also understands the importance of a sophisticated marketing strategy – thoroughly recommended
Andy’s proactivity and enthusiasm is living proof to one of the leitmotivs of a publishing house, namely that you need to have the right person in the right job. I’m excited to see Sequioa Books launch and would thoroughly recommend working with them
I have found Andy to be a very supportive editor who genuinely seeks to support authors through the manuscript preparation and publication phases of book development.
As an inexperienced author, I really enjoyed working with Andy. He supported us through the whole process and the end product was really eye-catching, thanks to Andy’s genius idea for the cover.
I have published many books with many publishers over the last 2 decades, and Andy was and still is my absolute favourite editor. He is very much an author’s editor who works collaboratively and effectively with the author toward a mutual goal. I’m extremely excited to see a new publishing company based around his unique ethos. I strongly recommend Sequoia Books to any potential author.
