Kirsiah Depp – Editor

My editorial background includes working on children's books at Penguin Random House and adult books at Hachette Book Group. I currently work with some of the biggest authors such as James Patterson and David Baldacci while building my own list of commercial fiction. I'm always looking for that next book that I just can't put down and has characters that I'm invested in.

On the children's side, I love a world that just envelops me, making me forget reality for just a little bit; characters that I cheer on and relationships that connect from start to finish. So I'm always looking for how to flesh that out even deeper and really engage the reader.

And my editing is always done with the YOU, the author, in mind. What is your vision? What story are you trying to tell? What other ways can you get there without changing the core of your creation? This is your book and I just want to help you make it the best it can be.

Now what do I do when I'm not editing? Glad you asked! I live with my husband, our son, and our Chow Chow/Golden Retriever dog. We enjoy being nerdy by playing video games together and I love trying out new arts and crafts. I particularly love crochet and cross stitch, but am always eager to try something new.
