Feedback

"I have tried so many online and in-person editing services, and I must admit that Cathy Kodra is my favourite. Cathy is committed to providing her clients with constructive and attentive feedback. It seems that she loves what she does; hence the work she offers is really of superior quality. When I submit a document to Cathy, I can be assured that it is being read, edited, and refined with a lot of care. She is timely and professional, yet very warm and humane. I will definitely continue to use Cathy’s services for a long time to come. Thank you Cathy, you are the best, I mean it!"

"Cathy is an amazing writer and a capable editor. She is concise and thorough, offers suggestions where revisions and structural changes might be needed, and altogether pulls the work into a more clear and pleasing format. I recently published a book of poetry and am very indebted to Cathy for her guidance. I feel good knowing that she is 'there for me' for future help."

"When I met Cathy Kodra, it was via e-mailing. She immediately struck me as a thoughtful and open-minded person who has a passion for expression. I then met her and felt understood and respected even more. She has an appreciation for the human condition, and I just knew she would be a fair reader of my life story – a story about mental illness, difficulty and spirituality. I have yet to feel the least bit let down. She read my life story and gave me honest, tough feedback. It helped me understand how to rewrite my story in a way that I know is far better. She provided me with a general reaction to my story and then made some specific comments that helped me identify what I am really trying to say and how best to say it. She's upfront, methodical and straightforward. She's honest and dedicated to helping writers of all sorts, and she's realistic when it comes to her limits and those of the people with whom she works. I'm now at a point of being almost ready for someone who can edit my current draft. I've never felt pressured by her to ask for her help at this stage. However, I know I'll want her to keep working with me, because I know that a lot of people could benefit from reading my book. I want it to be the best it can be. I feel confident this will happen with Cathy's continued help. As far as the monetary and business aspects of editing, she's far more than fair and is professional in every sense of the word. :)"
