What people say
"Jessica is the only person that I trust with my work. Period. She is and has been an industry insider, editing with several publishing houses, and her many years in the industry are a testament for the high quality of her work. She is the reason 5:30 Return got nominated for the Pulitzer, and why From a Broken Land was a finalist for 2017's Book of the Year. She's worked on my fiction, my nonfiction, and even my screenplays.
I once wrote that "She is an editing Goddess," but that doesn't do her justice. I would not be a published author without her.
Use this woman."

"I've been working with Jessica for about three years now. I went in blindly looking for an editor to give me feedback on a very rough manuscript. All I can say is five books later, with a sixth in the works, I'm fortunate to have found her and built a relationship. Jess will give you her honest opinion on everything, but in a way that will make your story flow much better, and she's not mean about it. That was important to me because writing is an extension of me. I'm always nervous about sending my MS in and what the feedback is. So her style jives well with me: relaxed but professional. She'll work with you from developmental and structural editing to copy editing and always, always points out any plot holes, which is much appreciated. She knows the publishing industry and can also give insight into what you're working on; if it works for the current market, or what could be improved to make it work better. Her communication is awesome, with timely check-ins and feedback. She's an editor who'll make it her mission to work around your schedule if she can, dedicated to helping you succeed in your writing project. If you're reading this, you're probably already interested in working with her. So here's that final push: Go for it. You won't regret it."
