Work

My work is grounded in communication and story.

From designing personal and business websites to writing copy for blogs, articles, and social media, to copy editing, fact-checking, and proofreading written content, I’m all about creating the most polished version of your creative vision to get your message across.

What do you want to do? What do you want to say? How can you tell your story better?

As a freelance writer and editor, these are the questions I ask my clients. Clarity, communication, and proper grammar are great (and VERY important), but good writing is more than that. Writing must always carry weight because words are not just words: they are the tools you use to bring your voice to the page, that state your mission, that allow you to place an imprint of yourself in spaces accessible to anyone and anywhere in the world whether you’re physically there or thousands of miles away.

So, what’s your project?

“My experience with Kathryn was so WONDERFUL. She helped me edit my project, You Owe it To Yourself. As a writer, I always struggle with either saying too much or too little, and she helped find a middle ground to saying just what I wanted to say, and doing it in a way that really captured my voice + style. Working with her was so easy and she made me feel heard, but also gave great constructive criticism that helped me think outside the box. She is truly so talented and great at what she does!”

— Kris Crews, Author

“Kathryn's keen eye for copyediting got a book manuscript to the finish line. She was responsive and understood the project immediately. She's a trustworthy final set of eyes to have prior to publishing.”

— Eddie Matthews, University Instructor

“Kathryn has completed plenty of long-form content writing projects for me. She does great work and is super reliable and friendly. I can always count on polished content from her!”

— Seth, Freelance Writer

“Kathryn made my fiction manuscript amazing and increased my confidence in my work. As writers, sometimes we can go down a rabbit hole of self-doubt... I felt so supported in my editing journey with Kathryn. She's precise, encouraging, and direct...and met our deadline fabulously. I truly loved being seen, heard, and understood. Also LOVED the level of editing talent. I felt like I was in expert hands and this increased my trust in the entire process. I'm absolutely thrilled with this experience.”

—Peppur Chambers, Author

“Kathryn was a true joy and pleasure to work with. She clearly understood the assignment!”

— Albert Tate, Pastor

“Kathryn was very professional from the beginning. She was patient with all my questions throughout the editing process with my book, always available to go over something that I was not sure about, and she kept all her deadlines. I can not wait to work with her again.”

— Ashley Regina, Life Coach and Author

“Working with CreatedtoCreate has helped me realize my potential and passion for writing. I was able to finally get started on a novel that had been brewing in my mind for years, because of Kathryn's wonderful ability to give me the push I needed. Her honest feedback on my work has challenged me to be a better writer, and I am thankful for it. She is able to see where I want to go with my project, and our discussions about it have helped me whenever I've run into the dreaded writer's block. Working with her has been a great decision, and I highly suggest, to anyone who needs help, to contact CreatedtoCreate. She will push you to be your best self!”

— Britt Connell, Writer

“I needed content for a marketing campaign about the M.A. program I teach in that found a balance between personalizing the experience students can expect to have and creating a functional understanding of what makes us unique. Kathryn walked that line expertly and improved our messaging in substantive ways. In short, working with her on this project was fantastic.”

— Michael Dean Clark, Professor of English

“I worked with CreatedtoCreate on a few different blogging projects, she was incredibly timely and professional. She was more responsive than most other copywriters I work with. I would recommend her to anyone in need of any copywriting services!”
