Kirsten Was An Instant Slam Dunk…
Having anyone read something I have written is nerve-racking. Yet, when looking for an editor, Kirsten was an instant slam dunk. I immediately felt comfortable with Kirsten and knew I could trust her with my material and trust the feedback she provided. She exudes a passion for storytelling and provides enthusiastic suggestions for improvement. What I appreciated were the thought-provoking, yet compassionate, questions she posed. It helped me make my material stronger but in a way that allowed me to still feel in control of the journey of the character. If you are looking for an editor, Kirsten is wonderful. A true cheerleader for the author, the material, and the writing community as a whole!
Connected and less alone in this new journey…
Sitting down with Kirsten to talk about my writing goals/intentions was very helpful for hearing my blocks from my own voice and getting practical advice on how to rethink and work around them. She encouraged me to find my own process and create a ritual around writing that will help me stay consistent and focused. I got practical writing tips for longer projects which I found very helpful. For example, if I can’t think of what to write in the moment, I can always type a note to myself to insert more on ____ here. She even gave me suggestions that were outside of the normal ways of thinking about writing so that I could expand my mindset on how to get started on a bigger writing project. Thank you Kirsten for sitting with me and listening to my fears and plans around writing! I felt very connected and less alone in this new journey.
I enjoyed having Kirsten as an editor.
I learned techniques and ways to write better and she brought to light little habits I had that I didn’t notice. Kirsten is attentive to details, provides great examples for show and not tell as well as really providing how my characters feel. It was a wonderful experience and I hope to work with her again on my next book.
Kirsten was a true delight to work with.
As a proofreader and developmental editor, she was able to provide both constructive critique as well as helpful suggestions, without infringing on my unique take on the story or writing style as an author. She was also very organized and professional, with upbeat energy always. I’d highly recommend her to writers seeking the aforementioned values.

Kirsten McNeill is a credible person!
I was excited after she met with me. Our session together was extremely informative and definitely worth the time. After we met, I was more comfortable writing since she was able to answer my queries. Kirsten takes her time to elaborate on any given question and she is never hesitant to answer. I totally recommend everyone to sign up for this.

I highly recommend Kirsten, she does top notch work…
Choosing an editor is so hard! It has taken me five trial runs, an expensive hit to my pocket book and three books to figure this out. When I ran across Kirsten I knew she was talented, and not only that, she is one of the most positive and uplifting people I have ever known. Finally, I have found the editor for me. Kirsten is firm but gentle, giving the perfect explanations, comments and examples. So not only is the editing going to make the book better, but I can learn as an author too! We work well together and I can honestly say I can call my editor a friend. This is the type of connection we as authors all want in an editor. I highly recommend Kirsten, she does top notch work. I feel confident knowing I can send her my work, it will come back for me to polish and ready for the world!
I found this mentor session to be very helpful!
It was fun getting to talk about writing and the different struggles I face as a writer! I enjoyed having a large chunk of time to chat, and I found it really helpful to be able to talk with someone who gets the struggles that come along with being a writer!!
Kirsten is both a professional editor and friend!
I was invited to write a short story for an anthology for the first time. Since it was going to be published, I knew I needed help from a professional. What’s great about Kirsten is she’s my friend before anything else. She was patient, understanding and that made the process easier. She can work both on a planned deadline and even during the times where you need to rush. She made my writing better, and I will definitely use her services for my future releases!
Thank you for making the editing process fun and smooth, Kirsten! Going through my first editing process with a professional was scary. But you made it a great one!
More power to your craft! x

You cannot find one better than Kirsten McNeill!
I met Kirsten through our social media. We mutually followed each other on Instagram and I became intrigued by her uplifting and informational posts. I found myself looking forward to reading her blog posts and quickly realized she knew her stuff when it came to the world of writing. Not only is her educational background impressive, she has a very clear grasp on what it takes to edit and perfect a story. We began corresponding when she did an Author Interview of me and then reviewed the first book in my series, Angel’s Gate. I was impressed with her honest review, how she equally balanced the good and the bad. After much consideration and review of her content I chose Kirsten to critique the 2nd and 3rd books of my series. Kirsten has a very open and direct way of communicating; she has great insight and truly understands the process. She offered amazing feedback, encouragement, and I will be using her for all of my stories as I continue with my career. If you are looking for an editor that will be honest, insightful and uplifting, you cannot find one better than Kirsten McNeill.
