I am a passionate and devote lover of the arts. Writing since I knew how to speak, spending all moments of free time learning which words flow best and how to best show the love I owe to the craft. I have been told through my many lively adventures that I am the kind of person who can write anything, or sell anything for that matter. I am filled with ideas that are outlandish and fun, thoughts bursting off the page and into my screen. I am great with words, a stickler on punctuation and fit for all endeavors, willing to do anything new and exciting, or even revisit the old. I tell stories in a way that leave you wanting more, and can and will go off on hour long tangents about the inherent queer coding of my favorite 80s cinema or classic novel. I have worked as a bookseller for the last 2 years, grown my love of art and want to be enveloped by it.

Let me help you make your novel the best it can be! Freelance Editor specializing in YA, MG, and Adult genre fiction. Manuscript polishing, line edits, content development, proofreading, query & synopsis, book doctoring, light ghost writing; development to make your book submission-ready. With over a decade of experience in the publishing industry, I've been fortunate to dip my toes in a bit of everything. I'm a published author of six Young Adult fiction novels (and working on my eighth book), the winner of the 2014 Moonbeam Children's Literature Award, and founder of a teen book festival called YA FEST. I have been a marketing director for a small publisher, an editorial intern for a NYC-based literary agency, and an associate to a successful ghostwriter. I have first-hand experience in both self publishing and traditional. For information about my editing services, please visit jennifermurgiaedits(dot)blogspot(dot)com. My first love has always been writing: the world building, the characters, the process of weaving a story until the words feel as if they've jumped off the page into our reality.If you're a first-time author ready to pursue your personal publishing journey, or a seasoned author in need of extra help to make your manuscript shine, you and your book deserve a dedicated, patient, and creative force behind it. As a freelance editor, I'm excited to help YOUR stories come to life. Testimonials: “Jen is absolutely the BEST editor you could have, hands-down. She has helped take all my projects to the next level. I won’t send a project in to my editors in NY without getting her stamp of approval first!” — Cyn Balog, author of 9 YA novels with Random House, Harlequin, and Sourcebooks "Jen is professional, prompt, and efficient for copy edits. I had a wonderful experience and would happily use her again!" — Wendy Higgins, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of the Sweet Evil series (Harper Teen) "Jennifer Murgia has a passion and talent for story. As an editorial intern, she has proven herself to be extremely capable of analyzing manuscripts to identify their strengths and weaknesses. Her editorial notes are in depth and clearly explain what isn’t working and what might strengthen the story. Her sharp editorial eyes are able to spot plot holes, stilted dialogue, inconsistencies in character development, issues with voice, and pacing problems, as well as many other aspects of writing. She’s also quite skilled at line editing and quick to catch overused words and phrases, grammar mistakes, and formatting errors. Additionally, her work ethic is impeccable and she always delivers by the date promised. In essence, she has been both a joy to work with and a highly prized asset. I highly recommend her services to any writer wanting to better their craft and bring their manuscript to that next level." - Marlo Berliner, Associate Agent, The Jennifer De Chiara Literary Agency "When it comes to a manuscript you’ve worked on for years, it’s very difficult to pass it on to an editor. However, I developed an instant sense of trust with Jennifer, and it turns out it was well-founded. Jennifer provided thoughtful, insightful revisions and line edits for my YA manuscript and guided me through the querying process. I would highly recommend Jennifer to any writer, and I look forward to working on many future books together!" — Danielle Mohr, author of DRIFT “Jennifer is an amazing editor. She edited my debut novel (over 80,000 words and 400+ pages) and kept in touch with me throughout the editing process. Her suggestions helped my story flow better, and she has a keen eye for typos. Most of all, her prices are very reasonable. I highly recommend her.” — Holly Sortland, author of URI FULL OF LIGHT “Jennifer helped me with edits on my query letter and synopsis. The process of querying agents is a terrifying one for most, and Jennifer offered me edits and suggestions to capture an agents attention. She provided line edits and some content edits to ensure my query was as good as it could be, and I felt so much more comfortable with my query and synopsis once she was done with it. I received feedback fast (next day) and Jennifer was easy to contact and work with. I will definitely be working with her again on more editing projects!” — AJ Eversely, author of The Watcher series “Jennifer's feedback on my first 3 chapters, query letter, and synopsis was so helpful and incredibly quick. I couldn't have asked for a better editor and I will definitely be using her again in the future!” — Morgan Conners, author of GREEN EYES "I worked with Jennifer as an editor for my first book & she’s done an amazing job! She’s easy to work with, she’s friendly, fast, & professional. I can easily recommend her & I will use her for my next book as well!" — Daria Paus, author of JOHNNY & I

I've been an avid reader my whole life. My favorite genres include New Adult romantic suspense, contemporary romance, and historical romance. I also have recently discovered that I also enjoy fantasy. I have one published piece of fiction work out already in an anthology. We are currently working on Volume 2, where I am a line editor for every story and poem, as well as contributing my own piece of work. I've been writing for over a decade. I minored in writing where I did everything from social media writing to memoir to fiction. I double minored in women's/gender studies, where I focused on women's history as well as the often-forgotten LGBTQIA+ history. I have a deep understanding of feminism, gender roles, and social issues surrounding these topics. I'm passionate about telling stories that other people would like to silence or forget about. I've also been an ARC reader for a little over a year now. I've also been a beta and alpha reader for several different projects. I have a "bookstagram" where I post book reviews, monthly wrap-ups of books I read, as well as things regarding my own work. If you're looking for someone who is detail-oriented and gives enthusiastic but constructive feedback, I'd love to help. I have a bachelor's degree in history, so if you're looking for someone to make sure your book is historically accurate, or if you simply would like feedback and editing done on a manuscript (of any genre, fiction or nonfiction), I'd love to help.
