Testimonials
“ I just wanted to write a note thanking you for your excellent work. Your edit was exactly what the book needed, and I am wholly impressed by the insight and poise of your queries to the author. After reading through everything you sent, I’m even more convinced that yours were the perfect hands for this project. ”
Joanna Conrad, Managing Director, Texas Tech University Press
"Once again, I am impressed by your expertise and excellence in editing. But I was more impressed by how you engaged the story from the inside and divined additions that would strengthen it overall. My book is much better as a result."
“Thanks a heap for your invaluable help. If that don’t win us a Nobel Prize we’ll know for darn sure the judges are bought off!”
Bill Neal, author, Guns to Gavels and Sex, Murder, and the Unwritten Law
"Wonderful job. You found an excellent balance between querying and changing things when needed but didn't overdo it. I thought your changes were smart, and your attention to detail was great. There was a lot going on with this one, but you handled everything exceedingly well."
Mary Kate Murphy, Production Editor, Cornell University Press
"THANK YOU for a very good copyedit of this book. There were several places in the text where the author responded to your comment with 'Great catch! Thank goodness for Katherine!' 😊 As always, I appreciate your work."
Elizabeth Wyckoff, Developmental Editor, Wisconsin Historical Society Press
"Katherine's coaching skills are exactly what I need as motivation and encouragement to improve both my writing and my confidence in my ability as a writer. In addition to her warmth and humor, she offers tangible guidance in every session, and each piece comes away more succinct. She technically dissects the essays appropriately while handling them with care, staying with each piece until I'm ready to move on. Thank you, Katherine!"
Allison Pauly, aspiring writer
"As usual, your suggestions are clear and concise. I very sincerely appreciate your keen eye and helpful suggestions, as well as your compliments. I was told that the single most important part of writing a book was to find a good editor, and every time I work with you this becomes more obvious. Thank you."
Katherine Pinner, author, Midnight Train and Liberte
“I just finished working on the MS you edited and wanted to thank you for your hard work. I’m very pleased with how the text reads and looks now. It seems that nothing at all escaped your attention, and you definitely managed to perform your artistic surgery without letting the authors’ distinctive voices get lost.”
