Testimonials
“Katie did a great job with editing my query letter. She clearly has extensive, real-world experience on both sides of the publishing world as a professional and as a writer. Her edits are balanced yet sharp, working with, rather than against, the writer's vision. I am so grateful to have connected with her.”

“This was my second time working with Salt & Sage. The team is great with communication and highly knowledgeable about writing. Highly recommend!”
Ashley Client from Salt & Sage (Sensitivity Read)
“I had an amazing experience working with Katie on my query letter. Her feedback was precise, professional, and encouraging and I am more than happy with all the changes and suggestions she’s made. I would definitely recommend Salt & Sage to other writers.”
Ann Liang Client From Salt & Sage (Query Edit)
“Katie has been amazing. She's gone over my query letter twice after I made changes and each time pulled something from the script that made it stronger and picked up minuscule mistakes I couldn't see in my own letter! She's attentive, detailed, thorough, and with all these skills fast too! Katie takes what you are trying to relay and makes it better. She doesn't hinder but helps bring out the intention of your query, streamlines and emboldens key points. Absolutely fantastic and I'm very grateful!
EJ Dawson Author and Beta reader (Query & First chapter edit)
“Katie was so kind as to look over my query. She's brilliant in how she strengthens/restructures sentences and removes choppy parts that altogether improved the flow and sharpness of my query. Katie also applied the same work ethic when she read the first chapter of my current WIP. She's very quick at responding to emailed questions. I'd use her editing services again and recommend others to use her services.”
Chinelo Chidebe Author (Query Edit)
“Katherine DeGeilio has a wonderfully meticulous eye for edits! Her recommendations really strengthened my query letter and made it more intriguing by clarifying the story's premise. I highly recommend her services to any writer! I will definitely be sending ALL of my future projects to Katherine in the future!”
Marcie Price Jackson Author and Screenwriter (Query & first chapter Edit)
“Ms. DeGillo is a talented editor whose professional decorum, honest insight, and diplomatic critique have improved my writing style and my manuscript. I strongly recommend Ms. DeGillo for your editing needs.”
JOY SHAW AUTHOR OF BRAVE GIRLS BRAVE TALES (Full Manuscript Edit)
“Katherine went above and beyond in helping me shape my query into its best possible version. Not only did she offer super fast turnaround times for each revision, her comments were insightful and her edit suggestions made a big difference in clarifying my story’s premise. I'd used a few other critique/editing services previously but I was always left wondering if the changes I'd made based on their recommendations actually made my query better, or worse. After the initial critique and two subsequent revisions with Katherine, I'm now so much more confident in sending my query out to agents. Highest praise for this query editing service!”
