Note: The No Fuss is a great option for authors who have worked with me before and are comfortable with my style and judgement - or for the author who is in a hurry and just wants it done and dusted. :)

Especially good for shorter, contemporary e-books without complex world building or for mid-series novellas where I know the world and the author’s style.

“As a first-time author, I was worried I couldn’t handle someone reading my writing. But Kate was kind, and I could tell she knows her craft! She coached me in how to bring a deeper layer to my writing and even develop my own voice as an author. I appreciated that Kate pointed out both areas for improvement and where I hit the mark to connect with her as a reader. In all her critiques, Kate’s curiosity and positivity shone through.”
