Hi, I'm Kathy, and  I am
a Story Architect. I help Authors and Writers with all aspects of writing their stories.

I love writing. I've written books, articles, posts, and short stories,  to name a few. I've also proofread and edited documents too.  If it involved words, then I love being involved.

 

If you are struggling with time or writing, then I'd love to help you out you help.

​

As a ghostwriter, I have written many books and I am currently halfway through writing my own book.

​

As a Story Architect, I help authors and writers to build their stories brick by brick. This could with outlining a plot, editing, proofreading through to ghostwriting.

​

As individual requirements vary with each author, I charge per hour to truly reflect the time the work will take.

What Can I Do For You?

As a writer, I understand the struggles of trying to do everything yourself when all you want to do is to be getting on with the important task of writing. 

​

I have experience in all aspects of writing a book, including the following:

​

  • Plotting

  • Outlining

  • Formatting

  • Editing

  • Proofreading

  • Ghostwriting

Getting Started

I have years of experience in writing fiction books, and I know from experience that the scariest part is getting started. 

​

I have exclusive templates that we can use to plot out the various section of your book, and then we can agree a writing timetable/

​

I can help you work through all the details that you need to know before you get started. I can make sure that you are prepared to succeed.

Ghostwriting

As a qualified ghostwriter, I have written many fiction books.

 

I can write the book for you based on your draft or I can write the difficult part that is holding you back. 

​

I have written many books as a ghostwriter and will work with you as needed.

​

Prices from £45 per hour

Proofwriting

I have been involved in the world of proofreading for more than 25 years. With a sharp eye for detail, I will make sure your book is error-free. 

​

I want people to be captivated by your story, not distracted by the number of spelling mistakes in your book.

Editing

Editing is , crucial for any book but bear in mind that editing is different to proofreading. Editing can happen throughout the book, but proofreading is also the last thing to be done.

 

This is where my skills come into play having experience in both.  will read your book and make sure that you have a powerful opening to hook your readers and a satisfactory ending. 

​

I will check to make sure that the character names are right, and that any descriptions are the same throughout the book. I will check chapter names and even make sure that the page numbers are right.

Formatting

Although you can write your book in a word processing package (such as Word), it's best to think about the finished project.

​

If you are going to have a Kindle book, you will need to use one of the KIndle formats and consider such things as having an ISBN for the cover (which is also something to think about).

​

I can create you KIndle book for you just need to tell me what size books you want (5"x8" is one of the popular sizes).

Research

Getting the facts right in your book is very important, but it can also be time-consuming.

​

This is where I can help. I will do the research for you and present it a concise manner ready to use.

​

Recently I have researched the effects of minus temperatures on the human body, drive-through coffee shops, artic wolves and even injuries to the knee.
