“Give me a forest, a fairytale, and a feeling I won’t recover from.”

Hi, I’m Kate—editor, word nerd, and full-time story goblin with Orange Reader energy.
Plot & Paper is where my love of stories collides with my passion for helping other writers grow—especially those chasing big emotions, immersive worlds, and characters who stay with you long after The End.
I’m a writer-turned-editor with a deep love for immersive stories, compelling characters, and beautifully messy drafts. I specialize in developmental feedback and line-level polish—offered together in my signature hybrid edit—to support your story’s structure and its voice. My feedback blends sharp editorial insight with a genuine respect for your vision, helping your work shine without losing what makes it yours.
By day, I’m finishing my degree in Writing & Rhetoric at the University of Central Florida. By night, I’m beta reading spicy fantasy, editing messy first drafts, and reminding people that commas do, in fact, matter. Always.
If you’re curious about how I work, check out my editorial approach to learn how I support authors from draft to publication—and beyond.
Still not sure what kind of stories I’m drawn to? Take the Read Your Color Test and find your reader vibe. (Spoiler: I’m an Orange Reader, which basically means I want magic, emotion, and just a little chaos.)
Let’s make some bookish magic.
Interested in working together?
I’d love to hear about your story. Send me a message and we’ll talk details—no pressure, just possibilities.
