Over mij
Hi, I’m Kathryn — a lawyer, writer, editor, and experienced beta reader. I help fiction writers strengthen their manuscripts with thoughtful, practical feedback on pacing, character, plot, clarity, and emotional impact. My goal is to give honest notes that are detailed, encouraging, and easy to use, with clear examples from your draft. I especially enjoy working with early drafts, full manuscripts, and stories featuring diverse characters, families, identities, and communities. ... Lees meer

    Kathryn's professionalism shines through in her short reader report over 10000 words of fiction, and she handled everything in a timely, polite, and communicative manner. I received the report in less than 24 hours which is an amazingly fast turnaround. I thank Kathryn for her kind words of encouragement...

    Waste of time and money. We just threw away what she delivered and hired another editor. Yes. Working with Kathryn was disappointing. She seems to put in minimal effort and not creative at all, making the overall value very low. The structure of the resume is formulaic. Despite multiple requests, no...

    Working with Kathryn on the resume was a mixed experience. The final product didn't quite meet my expectations due to a lack of attention to details and some misunderstanding of my requirements. Overall, the value of the delivery was below what I had hoped for. ChatGPT is 10x better at this kind of feedback. Lesson learned.

    Kathryn charges more for her services but this is a clear case of you get what you pay for. She obviously picked through my short story with exacting detail and gave the appropriate (and very detailed) feedback. I have never worked with a professional editor from a publisher before but I think this is...
