    “Working with Katherine on my book as a first-time author was an absolute privilege! She went above and beyond to ensure the manuscript became the best possible version of itself—clear, engaging, and accessible to the reader. Her unique word magic brought a sparkle to the text that elevated the book to new heights.

    I couldn’t have asked for a better partner on this journey. Katherine is a rare gem, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for an editor who combines exceptional skill, creativity, and a true love for her craft. My book is better in every way because of her contribution and I can't wait to start working on my next book with her.

    Grazie, cara Katherine!”

  • Adam

    “Working with Katherine has been an absolute gift!

    She brings the perfect balance of encouragement and challenge, pushing me to dig deeper into my characters and refine my theme while always making me feel capable and inspired. Her keen insights and thoughtful questions have inspired me to transform my draft into something far more compelling than I imagined.

    If you're looking for an developmental editor who will champion your story while guiding you to new creative heights, Katherine is the one!"

  • Jessi

    “One of the things I love about my ideation sessions with Kat is that [we’re] live. Kat considers and understands my process as a writer. She's not shoving her own methods into my brain, instead, her suggestions are always tailored for the way I learn and write. She's allotted time for me to express myself, discuss my writing, and ask my questions.

    The ideation sessions aren't just a 1-on-1 session where my mentor presents a lecture. No, no. The ideation session is an actual discussion between student and mentor, to improve not only my book, but also my writing and my process. I was honestly really shy about it at first, but Kat is lovely, friendly, and cheerful!

    You won't regret the package she has to offer. She is amazing!”

  • Brooke

    "Katherine was very pleasant to work with and provided great feedback. She was able to help me brainstorm ideas, providing fresh insight into some of the overlooked aspects of my book. Her efforts in this project were invaluable in the end, heightening the quality of my book greatly."

  • Stephanie

    "I employ [Katherine] on a regular basis to review all of my books for plot development and editing. She goes over above and really helps me turn out some fantastic stories! I recommend her to all of my author friends, so I apologize if we keep her busy and her availability is limited. ;) But it's because she really is the best at what she does. Her knowledge and experience in this work are top notch. Highly recommend, 10/10!"

  • Renee

    "I recently had the pleasure of participating in Ideation coaching sessions with Katherine Suzzette, and I must say, the experience was both informative and rewarding. Katherine provided a space where I felt comfortable sharing my thoughts and ideas. Her ability to listen attentively and then provide cohesive and actionable feedback was truly impressive.

    Each session left me feeling more confident and equipped to move forward with my ideas.

    Katherine's guidance was instrumental in helping me refine my concepts and take meaningful steps towards realizing my goals. I highly recommend her coaching services to anyone seeking clarity and direction in their creative endeavors."

  • Teagan

    "Katherine does a fantastic job editing my academic papers every time. She provides clear and concise edits with great constructive feedback.

    [Her suggestions] have improved my writing drastically as well, which I am in great appreciation for. She is timely and very communicative if there is any clarification needed. Overall, Katherine is a fantastic proofreader, editor, and writer who will support your writing journey in all areas of work."

Developmental Editor + Book Coach

I have been working as a professional editor since early 2023 and am trained by and a member of the EFA (Editorial Freelancer’s Association). I fell in love completely with bringing stories to life! My passion is helping authors go from “good idea” to “a book that can’t be put down!”

While editing, expect kind, but ruthless scouring of your work accompanied by encouraging comments and positive feedback on the things you already do well! Editing with me is like gaining a bookish best friend to help guide you, your book, and your characters, through the process of becoming their best iteration yet.

Whilst I promote myself as, foremost, a fiction editor, I am also incredibly talented in the realm of academic editing and am happy to take inquiries so long as my schedule allows.

  • While editing is my main squeeze, I also serve as a Self-Presentation Coach! Learn More
