“I am happy to recommend Keitha Smith as an editor for aspiring authors, the main reason being the fact that she is both a reader and a writer herself. She not only understands the technicalities of grammar, spelling and punctuation, but more importantly, (to me) she understands the arc and flow of story and the equally important dynamic of plot and character. As an author myself, I appreciate that in an editor – someone who knows when to politely and respectfully ‘point out the rules’, or alternately ‘throw out the rulebook’ in favour of art and style. She has a great grasp of story and has a way of telling you things that are straightforward and true, with a minimum of ego bruising (which for an author, is a big deal!) I think anyone who has the opportunity to hire Keitha as an editor would be a very wise and fortunate writer indeed!”
