'Katherine's mentoring and feedback was invaluable and supportive for me at a time when I was ready to give up on a challenging long-term project. The combination of wise coaching and expert editorial critique, delivered sensitively and warmly, was just perfect. I really appreciated how flexible and kind Katherine was, and I can recommend her wholeheartedly to other writers, whatever stage they are at.'


Liz Flanagan, award-winning author of the Wildsmith and
Dragon Daughter series
