REVIEWS
“Kate is like a grammar angel. She can tidy up and rework a paper incredibly fast.”
– Joey, Thesis Client
“The way Kate writes is captivating and draws you in. You become invested in her characters and in her stories. Her fiction is so hard to put down.”
– Anne, Writing Client

I meant it as a joke, calling myself something so pretentious as “wordsmith”. Then I realised that the term truly describes what I do. I beaver away in my wordshop, smashing words together and building something greater. I have worked with words- using them to craft stories, build arguments, create worlds and form ideas for my entire life.
I offer my experience, talent and dedicated work ethic to your project, whether you need me to write, edit or teach.
Get in contact and let me know how I can help you today.
What I Do
Writing Services
I have experience both under my own name and ghost writing in a broad range of genres – fiction and nonfiction.
Editing Services
I built my editing skills proofreading theses for other students, and since then I have expanded to line editing and structural edits.
Teaching/Workshops
I have taught workshops with groups of all ages, covering poetry, character, literary technique and more.
