“Friends and colleagues had been encouraging me for a long time to publish a book of my work but I was paralyzed at the thought. Once Jill came into my life, I completely let go of the reigns and let her do her magic. I am a decorator, not a book publisher and I knew my own bandwidth. Jill took me through the process from finding a publisher to promoting the book with the greatest of ease. I consider The Well Loved House to be one of my biggest accomplishments in life and I could not have done it without Jill. She is a true powerhouse in the absolute best sense of the word. I could not recommend her more highly!”

“I have had the great pleasure of working on all of my books with Jill. Very simply, Jill just gets it. She understands that a book is as much a marketing tool for my business as it is a stand-alone publication. Her genius is creating new, fresh concepts that are both relevant and timeless. With her wisdom and vision my books are grand statements of my work that have drawn the attention of many clients around the world.”

“I could write a book about my experience collaborating with Jill Cohen and her boundless enthusiasm and vision shaped my book and changed my world. She visualized the book almost immediately. Jill made it painless and effortless in so many ways. I trusted her implicitly every step of the way and she never steered me wrong. I am eternally grateful to Jill for the magic she has brought to Luminous Interiors.”

“Jill guided me from start to finish. I would never have been able to navigate the ins and outs of the publishing world without her and she gives 150 percent. She sees what you have to offer and builds on that while also telling you the realities of the publishing business. I cannot imagine not working with her—besides she is a blast!”
— Mary McDonald

“I’ve been a fashion and lifestyle designer my entire life. Creating my first book was probably the most difficult (and craziest) thing I have ever tried to do—until I met Jill. She knew I had a book in me but I needed to find and define my voice. She helped me communicate without losing my vision or identity. In fact, she brought more of me out that I ever realized I had. Her human sensitivity, remarkable experience and just plain smart way of being…are a perfect combination to ignite and support a creative individual.”
— Rebecca Moses

“Jill Cohen has shepherded our new book from conception to contract, design through editing. I could not imagine doing this book without her. Not only has she has completely deconstructed and demystified the publication process for us, she is also an absolute delight to work with!”

“Jill is so much more than a book agent. She guided us through the entire process from helping us fully develop our book concept, to finding the perfect publishing house that fit our goals, to creating a strategic marketing plan and everything in between. Jill sees the big picture. She helped us to see our book as an opportunity to develop our brand. Jill exceeded our expectations every step of the way. She has become a dear friend. We actually want to write another book just to keep Jill in our life. She’s the best.”

“In every field there are a handful of individuals who stand out above the crowd in terms of talent, intelligence, integrity, ability and skills. In the world of publishing, there is only one person that combines all of those traits (and then some), and that is: Jill Cohen! Jill is a consummate professional with an innate sense of timing, good taste, and resourcefulness. I feel blessed, indeed, the day that Jill entered my life.”

“Jill Cohen is the consummate pro when it comes to the publishing world of beautiful books! Her depth of knowledge, her years of hands-on experience, her energy and enthusiasm coupled with her personal connections to the top echelon of publishers are invaluable. I got an extraordinary “crash course” into the publishing world with Jill and relied on her completely for her guidance and expertise. There’s no one like Jill to lead an author in all the right directions and to great success. She leads and I happily follow!”
