A narrow trail wanders through patches of shadow, light, and glimpses of snowy peaks. The path crunches under my feet, releasing an intoxicating mix of pine and warm earth. A rhythm takes over, one foot after the other. As I reach the peak, I am somehow lighter. My legs have the delicious, wobbly sensation earned by a long hike. And the sky goes on forever.

CALLING
IT TAKES TWO TO TELL A LIE—ONE TO TELL THE LIE AND ONE TO BELIEVE IT.
Caroline isn’t sure how she came to believe that accepting a nursing job in a remote Alaskan village would give her escape from failure and humiliation. Though freedom from her troubles proves elusive, she does find adventure, eccentric friends, a noble fisherman—and a decades-old crime concealed in a shallow grave.

"THIS BOOK HAS BEEN SITTING ON THE SHELF FOR YEARS."
After hearing countless authors share this frustration, I realized most people need more than just an editor. They need a coach to guide them on their journey from an idea to a book ready for publication. I meet with my authors every week. We set realistic milestones—and celebrate every win. We work on craft, structure, character development, and the juicy bits that make readers turn another page.

I've had the privilege of working with numerous editors, but few have come close Kim. Her attention to detail, meticulous editing skills, and insightful feedback are nothing short of transformational.

I had hit a wall and could not see what needed to be done next. Kim not only edited my book but helped me break down those walls so I could finish writing it. Her ability reaches far beyond what a traditional editor could offer.

Kim doesn’t just tell me what needs improvement, she goes the extra mile to offer brilliantly supportive ideas. Her services are fairly priced, and she brings extensive expertise to each project.

I started my writing journey five years ago, but found no real clarity. Kim was able to identify plot holes in my novel, helping take it from mediocre to prodigious. (She) helped me get my first contract!

When I was a child, our family moved from the suburbs of Detroit to the end of a long dirt road in small-town Alaska, where our only entertainment was books and wide open spaces. To this day, my best forms of therapy are rich stories and Pacific Northwest mountain paths.

I am a writer and book coach with a passion to delight the world with words. When I’m not writing and editing, I can be found frolicking on the mountains and ocean shores of the Pacific Northwest with friends, family, and hopefully a large slice of watermelon.
