Overview
Editor of 'The Last List of Mabel Beaumont', an Amazon #1 bestseller by Laura Pearson, and 'Jinx' by Jessica Huntley, a 2023 Bookshelf Awards finalist.
'I consider myself truly blessed to have found Jennifer. She nurtured me through the editing process, painlessly showing great empathy and common sense. Jennifer has the experience, expertise and insight to objectively ask pertinent questions.'
'I'm so thankful I found Jennifer. From the first appointment to discuss what I needed, to where we are right now, it's been 100% professional. I can't express how working with Jennifer doesn't feel like work at all... I would thoroughly recommend Jennifer and would use her fantastic work again in a heartbeat. What a gem!'
Over the course of my career, I've been lucky enough to work with some incredible clients. I've worked with internationally bestselling authors and first-time authors, and I love both equally. I specialise in thrillers and women's fiction, though I've worked across a range of genres. My publisher clients include Boldwood Books and Bookouture (part of Hatchette).
Through my experience of working with traditional publishers, I've been able to help my self-publishing clients craft professional and polished manuscripts. If it's editing you require, I'll carry out two rounds to make sure we don't miss any opportunities to bring your manuscript to its best possible level. I'm super friendly and approachable, and I'm more than happy for you to ask as many questions as you like throughout the process.
