Testimonials

Andy W., former client

When I needed professional caliber editing for my resume and cover letter I went straight to Cat McCarrey.  After talking over my objectives with me, Cat eviscerated my rough draft and handed back top shelf writing.  Worth every penny.  

Robin Russell, author of the Summer Island Mystery and Those Roys series

Working with Cat has transformed me as a writer. She has a remarkable ability to be both supportive and demanding. Her insights at 30,000 feet have helped me take a step back from my novel and see what needs to be cut. Equally as valuable, at the ground level, she’s guided me through the minutiae of conventions. I’m forever grateful for her candor, her humor, her sincerity, and the care she takes with me and my writing.

Andrew J. Mair, author of Tales of a Paperboy

Cat has been a phenomenal asset in my writing journey! Her astute advice and guidance significantly enhanced my writing skills. She was truly remarkable, and I strongly endorse her for anyone seeking to elevate their writing craft. I owe the publication of my book to her invaluable assistance.

E.C. Adams, screenwriter and author

Cat has an uncanny ability to see exactly what you are trying to say and help you actually articulate it. It’s like having a smarter extension of my own brain!
