Jennifer Duty – Editor

I have a flexible schedule and can edit your manuscript using Word or Pages. I typically give a manuscript three reads, sending it back with changes/comments/suggestions after each read. References are below. Thank you for taking a look at my profile.

August 2026 reference from James Bultema:

"I highly recommend Jennifer Duty as a copy editor. Jennifer is thoughtful, meticulous, and exceptionally skilled at improving clarity and flow while preserving the writer’s voice. She has a sharp eye for detail, and I’ve always valued the care and professionalism she brings to her work. I would gladly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking for an experienced and dependable copy editor."

August 2026 reference from Thomas Scott:

I met Jennifer Duty by chance, and I can't imagine finding a better all-around editor for my manuscripts. Jennifer has edited eleven books for me, beginning with State of Suspense in November 2023. Over nearly the last three years she has proven herself time and time again. I believe Jennifer's excellent work ethic, her keen eye for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and continuity of story are among the best any author could hope for. She pays very close attention to character voices, occasionally adding comments like “I think [character name] would say it this way instead...” We work well together and I accept 90-some percent of her suggestions, corrections, and general story advice. As for the other ten percent (and since you're a writer I'm sure you'll understand this) I'm just stubborn enough to say 'Nope, I'm going to do it this way.'"
