AARON WHITMAN, President, Able Sense

Karen is a thorough editor, taking her time to look at both the big picture and the minutiae of the story. She isn't afraid to ask questions about the story's direction, continuity, and characters, even as she works to improve grammar and word choice. The changes she's suggested have made sense for the story and for my characters.

Paper Moons, by K.A. Hough
(Sley House, coming March 2025)

Cate is fine, honest.

She's 30, and divorced, but healthy; her townhouse is immaculate, and the love of her life is her dog, Humphrey. She takes her vitamins, does Astralon's government-mandated fitness routines somewhat regularly, and wears the compression vest that keeps her body able to function on her planet. She's fine.

And she loves her job, or would if there wasn't something very unsettling going on in the performance lab... and then there's her family...

This is a love story about accepting your family for who they are, picking up the pieces after bad breakups and accepting that it’s time to grow up. It’s set—mostly—in a dog park.
