Testimonial
“This book would not exist, and would never have been finished, without the extraordinary support, encouragement, dedication, precision, and brilliance of Catherine Barnett, and the courage her company always brings.”
- Saskia Hamilton, from the acknowledgements to All Souls, 2023 National Book Critics Circle Award nominee.
Freelance Editing
“I have worked with more than a dozen writers who’ve won or been nominated for major writing awards; I’ve also worked with beginners, former students, and of course many many friends.”
Private Teaching
“I work with beginning and advanced writers (many of whom are already published) to foster creativity, confidence, focus, pleasure, discovery. Like many other writers and readers of poetry and essays, I prize clarity and mystery in equal measure.”
