“Annie helped me grow from a writer who was all vibes to an author who understood the complexities of character development and a plot that keeps the reader turning pages. She understood the soul of my story and helped me shape it into something that ultimately got me my agent and my first publishing contract. I still use the skills she taught me today, now on my fourth contract. Not only that, she became a dear friend who I still treasure!”
Alena Bruzas, Author of Ever Since
“I’ve had the pleasure of collaborating with Annie Kronenberg on both a kids’ horror podcast and a collection of short scary stories, and she brings the same mix of imagination, wit, creativity, and heart to every project. She’s one of those rare writers who can make you laugh, squirm, and think all at once. Every project I’ve worked on with her has benefited significantly from her presence. She epitomizes the term creative professional.”
Elie Lichtshein,
Creator of The Creeping Hour
“Annie is the best beta reader an author could ask for. She has an endless imagination and approaches storytelling with curiosity and inventiveness unlike I’ve ever seen. When I shared my first manuscript with her, I was still in that odd limbo between liking it and LOVING it. Annie’s editorial feedback and creative suggestions are what took it straight to supernova. She made me feel confident in my writing again, and helped me find crazy new opportunities to grow my story and characters. She’s the light every author needs if they fear the shadows in their work. Trust me, she’ll make you fall in love with it like you never have before!”

About Me.
I’m Annie Hope Kronenberg, a writer, editor, and producer passionate about the power of storytelling in all its forms.
​
My path has taken me from New York’s publishing world, where I worked as an associate literary agent with clients including Joyce Carol Oates and Gregory Maguire, to producing award-winning true crime and narrative podcasts with Paramount and CBS News, to Queen's University in Belfast, where I completed my M.A. in Creative Writing.
​
My fiction has been recognized by The Five Lamps Arts Festival, and my editorial work has helped debut and established authors bring their projects to life. In podcasting, I’ve scripted and produced series such as 48 Hours: Post Mortem and Murder in the Orange Grove, collaborating with journalists, talent, and production teams to create compelling, immersive narratives.
​
When I’m not working, you can usually find me running through Central Park, leaping in the back of a dance studio, or learning to surf along the coast of Northern Ireland. ​
