I’m available to edit manuscripts, essays, and stories. I can help you find focus with an early draft or fine-tune a near-finished piece. I’ll also offer light line and copy edits and chat with you after to answer any lingering questions. I edit with a gentle but thorough approach that centers your vision, voice, and aesthetic. I’m an especially good editor for hybrid essays, voice-driven fiction, and projects that don’t necessarily hinge on plot or linear progression. The best way to know if I’d be a good fit for your project is to read my work. 

Manuscripts up to 60,000 words + 45 min meeting after: $1200 

Essays/ stories up to 5000 words + 30 min meeting after: $275 

You can get in touch with me here. Please let me know a bit about your project and what you’re looking for. If your project is longer than the word limits above, reach out & I can give you an estimate. 

Some kind words about my editing:

I couldn't be happier or more relieved that I chose to work with Katie on my manuscript. She is deeply thoughtful, and made gentle suggestions that helped me see the path forward. I would recommend her to anyone, from those starting out and needing generative suggestions to those finishing the final touches on their project, or anywhere in between.

Katie's feedback balances affirmation with rigor—she's as committed to naming what's working as she is to improving clarity and flow. Her editing is holistic and deeply respectful of a writer's individual voice and vision.
