Project details

Hello! I'm so excited to help you whip your manuscript into shape!

Let me introduce myself. I am a USA Today Best Selling Author, and the author of a 2020 Romance Writers of America Readers' Choice finalist. I’ve also written a 3 book traditionally-published science fiction series, a sweet contemporary romance, a thriller, a retelling, a sci-fi series, and a best-selling paranormal romance.

As a freelance developmental editor, I’ve completed edits on over 50 novels including fantasy, urban fantasy, middle grade, science fiction, contemporary romance, thriller, cozy, young adult, memoir, and self-help books.

I’d be happy to give you advice on how to whip your manuscript into shape for agents and editors, or to be developmentally sound for self-publication.

Starter edit: Full read and a summary of suggestions at the end.
Standard: Starter edit + inline comments in the manuscript using Track Changes, noting improvements where they occur.
Advanced: Standard edit + coaching on concepts like show vs. tell, dialog pacing, opening and closing hooks, etc.

Please ask questions! It's really important to *click* with your editor to make sure you both have a great experience.

Book Publisher Needed Jennifer, delivered good work and I enjoyed working with her. She went above and beyond to ensure that I had a good product. Even after the project was completed she was available to answer my questions. I enjoyed working with Jennifer and will definitely use her in the future. If you're looking for a professional that is well versed and knowledgeable in her field, then I would recommend using her services.

The Shaking Roses Revisions I began and complete this project two years ago with Jennifer. After taking an educational detour, I came back to find that the book I had written needed revisions. I called upon Jennifer again. Her work was the top tier. Stop searching. You found the best.

Sicklerville, United States - 4:42 pm local time
I am a traditionally-published USA Today Best Selling author, professional developmental editor, and book formatter. I also penned the the 2020 Romance Writers of America Carolyn Award Reader's Choice finalist, a TRR Reader's Choice Nominated YA novel, a three-book YA science fiction series, an adult contemporary paranormal thriller, a science fiction stand alone, a historical paranormal, a multi-book space opera, and a best-selling adult contemporary dragon shifter novel.

Outside of novel writing and editing, I also enjoy working as a professional writing coach. I specialize in deep point of view in either third person or first person close. I have also had the honor of guest-judging the Philadelphia Writer's Conference Fiction Contest, and adapting several screenplays to novels, and one novel to screenplay.

Keeping current is the key to reader engagement. I'm an avid reader of contemporary fiction and perpetual writing course addict.
