Testimonials

“I had the privilege of having Kirstin edit my very first novel, and I hope to have her edit everything I write for the remainder of my career—or for as long as she’ll have me. She is professional, experienced, and truly enthusiastic for what she does. She always understands my characters, my voice as an author, and the message I’m trying to convey, and her thought-out feedback illustrates this. Kirstin’s editing takes my writing to the next level, and I trust her implicitly with my words. She’s an absolute joy to work with!”

“Submitting your literary work to an editor for the first time can be rather daunting, but working with Kirstin turned out to be the absolute best decision I could have made as a new writer! When she returned my first developmental edit to me (which was a veritable thesis!), I was astounded by the sheer amount of detailed, thoughtful feedback, all of which I used to strengthen my story. Her line editing was also beautifully executed, and I appreciated that my voice was never lost. By the end of the entire editing process, I was ecstatic with the results. My manuscript had matured and blossomed into the best version it could possibly be. Kirstin made this one of the most enjoyable and rewarding experiences of my life, and I would recommend her a million times over!”

“Working with Kirstin Andrews on my novel The Stronghold was one of the best editing experiences I’ve had in my writing career thus far. Handing over your work to an editor can be stressful, but Kirstin made it easy with her fine attention to detail, understanding of grammar, story and how the prose should flow. Her suggestions fixed minor backstory problems and her thoughtful input unquestionably improved my book. It was a pleasure to work with her and I would recommend her to writers both experienced and just starting out.”

“Kirstin didn’t just change the ‘wrong’ words and expressions but she gave me great input on how to significantly improve the quality of my document. She also gave me advice on what I could do to make it sound better without forcing me to make all the changes she proposed . . . There were also detailed comments included throughout the document with clear explanations on what she had changed and why . . . Although there were several proposed changes, the style and the personal way that I had used to write it was not at all affected.”

“Kirstin has been lovely to work with! I’ve never worked with an editor before and this has been an awesomely positive experience. Kirstin had insightful, thorough edits every step of the way and helped me clarify all my muddled, run-on craziness . . . She always checked even small edits with me to make sure it still said what I wanted it to say. Her communication during the project was excellent . . . Kirstin has the patience of a saint and her management of the project was ON POINT . . . All in all her edits were incredibly helpful and this was a very positive experience!”
