(Word) nerd alert.

Welcome to Katherine Monasterio’s big wordy portfolio site.

Check out my work

Katherine Monasterio is an editor and author who lives for strengthening the written word.

As an editor

I specialize in developmental editing for fiction—you know, plot, pacing, character arcs—but have plenty of experience as a proofreader (whoops, that dialogue’s missing a quotation mark) and copy editor (wasn’t the sword in her left hand before?).

As an Author

If you know one thing about me, it’s that I write. When it’s stories I want to share with the world (as opposed to fandoms that enjoy the concept of mutual pining), it’s usually short fiction, and I’ve won a few awards for those stories. See Work for more.
