Katie G. – Editor

I'm a graduate of Carleton University with a Bachelor of Journalism and English Literature. After a stint as a freelance reporter, it was affirmed for me that my true passion for storytelling lies in book publishing! With over seven years of experience as a proofreader and editorial assistant for Harlequin HarperCollins, I've honed my skills in proofreading and writing back cover copy.

I love helping authors polish stories and convey messages that mean so much to them. I'm organized with a keen attention to detail, a love for publishing and solid work experience. Authors I've worked with say they love my thoroughness, insights, and my understanding of their vision and voice. I'm proficient with The Chicago Manual of Style, Merriam-Webster's dictionary and Oxford dictionary. I've worked on a wide variety of genres, including YA, mystery, suspense/thriller, paranormal, fantasy and contemporary fiction.

I'm excited to help you with your next project! Contact me and tell me about it, and we can go from there. I look forward to hearing from you.
