    There are strengths and weaknesses in every body of work. Perfection is unattainable. But what I love about your critiques is that I can see myself in pursuit of it through the lens of someone else's eyes. This is without a doubt the most spot on review I've ever seen of any of my books. This is exactly...

    Kath is great to use for help with the inside and outside of the books. She is amazingly responsive and very knowledgeable. She goes beyond and above expectations. Definitely want Kath on your team.

    Given Kath's background, my expectations were high. I'd even say... huge. But I must admit, Kath's analysis blew past them. Without getting too wordy, and no apologies needed, reading Kath's analysis was a spiritual... (you know what I mean). :)
