Testimonials
Kind words from authors I've worked with
Real feedback from real collaborations — from the reading notes to the day the launch graphics go live.

Lance Morcan, author of New Zealand: A Novel
An ARC read and a full set of launch content for a sweeping historical epic.
Charlotte read New Zealand: A Novel with genuine care, and her feedback went straight to the heart of the story — honest, specific, and always generous. She then brought that same understanding to the promotional side: the banners and launch content she designed capture the sweep and drama of the book exactly as I hoped readers would see it. It is rare to find one person who can read a novel deeply and then make it look magnificent. Working with her felt like having a dedicated publishing house behind the book.
Lance Morcan
Author, New Zealand: A Novel
Launch content designed for Lance Morcan's New Zealand: A Novel — book presentation, blurb panel and availability graphic, all in one piece.
The collaboration
A read and a design language that belong to the same book
Every engagement starts the same way: the manuscript is read closely, twice. The notes are honest and specific, so the author knows exactly what is working and where the story needs more.
Then the visual work grows out of that same reading. Covers, banners and launch graphics are built on the story's own world — its era, its mood, its promises to the reader — so the promo material and the book speak with one voice.
Every manuscript read twice
Once as a reader, once with a pencil — so the feedback comes from both feeling and craft.
Design rooted in the book
Covers and graphics built on genre research and a real read of the story, not a template.
One voice across the launch
Reviews, pull quotes, banners and teasers all speaking the same language as the book.
