Freelance Editor

As a freelance editor based in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, working both locally and nationally, I offer seasoned experience to help publishers and indies increase capacity and expand knowledge base when they need it most.

What Publishers Are Saying

“It would be difficult to overstate Kellie Hultgren's excellence and professionalism as a freelance editor and production manager. She has been an invaluable member of the Coffee House team at many points over the last six years, carrying projects from manuscript to finished book with clarity, equanimity, and adaptability, and always maintaining a sense of humor. Kellie is as dependable, skillful, and cool-headed as they come. Any press or author would be lucky to collaborate with her.“

—Lizzie Davis, Senior Editor, Coffee House Press
