Editing & Novel Coaching

"I highly recommend Katrina as a book editor. If you're looking for a no-nonsense editor that won't stifle your creativity, go with Polished Pages. Katrina, above all else, is an accomplished reader, which is obvious in the way she cares deeply about your characters (maybe even as much as you do). I trust her intuition. I know my story is in good hands with her." – Gen Morrison

Helping Writers Produce Their Very Best Work

Get your pages ready for submission or publication.

As an editor, I work closely with writers and authors to fully appreciate their goals, capture their unique voices, and help their words make the impact they desire.

As a novel-writing coach...

My holistic approach blends mindfulness practices with proven step-by-step strategies to help you draft a solid outline, eliminate imposter syndrome, and complete your novel around your busy schedule.

I solemnly swear…

As a writer, I understand how nerve-wracking it is to choose the right editor or writing coach. That's why it's important we discover whether we're a good match before moving forward. I promise to be honest about how I can help and otherwise refer you to someone who can.

WHY YOU NEED AN EDITOR

Whether you're writing your first novel or submitting your thesis paper, engaging a professional editor is an important part of improving your craft and ensuring your writing hits home.

If you're committed to connecting with your target readers, I can help make your work truly resonate.

While I do edit all types of works, I specialize in:

Young/New Adult

I edit all genres within these categories because of both my affinity for and expertise in YA and NA story structure, character voice, and tone, as well as my deep understanding of each category's target readership.

Urban/Fantasy

My passion for the urban fantasy and fantasy genres makes connecting with your story, your characters, and your readers easy and organic on my part. My debut novel also happens to be a YA urban fantasy.

New Age/Spiritual

As someone who's done a lot of inner work and has an avid interest in new age and spiritual topics, I work with spiritual entrepreneurs who are ready to shape their teachings and messages into a book.

Academic

Also a devoted academic, I offer copyediting and proofreading for theses and dissertations across a range of topics, checking for objective errors to render your paper ready for submission.
