— Kimberly McCreight, New York Times bestselling author or RECONSTRUCTING AMELIA, WHERE THEY FOUND HER, and THE OUTLIERS TRILOGY
Kathleen Carter’s attention to detail, professionalism, and deeply-rooted contacts within the book industry have paid off enormously for me in both book sales and reach.

— Fiona Davis, national bestselling author THE DOLLHOUSE and THE ADDRESS
It’s always a little scary paying for an additional publicist, but I can say wholeheartedly that Kathleen was worth every penny. For months after my first book hit shelves, she had my calendar booked with newspaper, magazine, radio, and television interviews—and she even came with me to the big ones. She knows exactly who to pitch—and how—and thanks to her hard work and tireless effort, my book was a success. I was so impressed by her, in fact, that I hired her for my next two books too
— Erin Bried, author of HOW TO SEW A BUTTON: And Other Nifty Things Your Grandmother Knew
Kathleen Carter is exactly what you want in a publicist — someone with a strategy, connections, and great skill at bringing those together. But perhaps what makes her special is that, as an author, I always had the sense she believed in my writing as fiercely as I did. Who could possibly ask for more?
— Jodi Picoult, New York Times bestselling author of SMALL GREAT THINGS
I could not have asked for a more attentive, enthusiastic, or knowledgeable person to work with on my book than Kathleen. Every step of the way as we were promoting my book, I felt confident in her skills and sharp sense of how to shine the brightest and best light on my project. Her knowledge of the industry, her keen sense for collaboration, and her genuine love of books make her a truly outstanding in her field.
— Mary Elizabeth Williams, Salon senior writer and author of A SERIES OF CATASTROPHES AND MIRACLES
Through her energy, network, and vision, Kathleen Carter has opened doors too numerous to mention for my work. She integrates seamlessly into the projects she takes on with a deep care for the writing and the writers she represents.
— Elliot Ackerman, bestselling author of GREEN ON BLUE and DARK AT THE CROSSING
Kathleen was invaluable in helping secure publicity for my first book and make its launch a success. She is simply one of the most hard-working, well-organized, attentive people on the planet. Best of all, her naturally calm demeanor provides soothing during what, for most writers, is an especially anxious time.
— Michelle Stevens, PhD, author of SCARED SELFLESS
Kathleen handled publicity for my last novel. In addition to being an expert and well connected in new media such as podcasts, Twitter forums, Reddit, and more, she was also able to land placement in the traditional media venues of television, radio and print. Above all, she was a pleasure to work with and I plan to work with her on my next book as well.
