Getting started, or getting started again, is often the hardest part of writing. Whether it’s fear of exposure, perfectionism, or simply the weight of everyday life, something can hold the words back. I’m here to help you move past that, because putting your thoughts on the page and ensuring they say what you intended is one of the most meaningful and rewarding things you can do.

What Writers are Saying

“Kathi’s eye for detail and compassion about my characters have been a game changer for my editing in fiction. She has been able to hold each of my characters as though they are real people and truly cares about the arcs of their stories.

Her straightforward yet gentle approach to offering her suggestions is exactly what I needed to make my novels shine. If you are looking for someone to really care about your work and still give you some honest truth, Kathi is who you need in your corner.”

Author, “Falling from Grace”, “If We Were Having Coffee”

“Upon completion of my first book, “The Paris Quest”, I sought out Kathi’s help. I found her written advice to be fair, thorough, well rounded and in a format that made it easy for me to follow. It is not an exaggeration that her opinion of my work kept my dream alive during the dark times and soul searching that come with submitting queries to silent agents and publishers. I recommend her help to anyone dealing with the mysteries of writing and publishing a novel. Whether that be through traditional means or self publishing.”
