Testimonials

  • Karen is on another level. For two of my books now, Karen has polished my raw first drafts to a gleam. They deliver invaluable critique on plot, characters, theme and targeted areas for sensitivity reads, all with professionalism and encouragement. From the first time we worked together, I was blown away by Karen’s attention to detail. They have a precise eye for editing and vast expertise in storytelling and genre conventions that comes through in the depth of their feedback. I can tell Karen cares deeply about authors and I simply can’t recommend them enough.

    Julia Laurel, Author and Artist

  • Karen provides invaluable feedback, both on a level of individual taste as well as with genre conventions and past literary experiences in mind. Their critique was always constructive and uplifting, and presented in great detail. Their skill and understanding regarding writing conventions helped us bring out the best in our book. They are a very skilled editor, beta reader and sensitivity reader, and working with them was an absolute pleasure. We hope to do so again someday soon!

    Vaela Denarr and Micah Iannandrea, authors of She Who Brought the Storm

  • Karen gives wonderfully in-depth edits with clear and empowering suggestions. Their edit letter was professional, insightful, and made me excited to dive back into my draft. Their in-text comments gave great in-the-moment insights and overall chapter suggestions. I can't recommend them enough and will definitely be working with them in the future!
