Jessica Ross – Editor

I'm an editor, writer, and podcaster. I've been editing and consulting with writers since 2008; I also have experience as a project manager.

Overview

Jess is an editor, writer, podcaster, and recovering procrastinator; their experience learning and working as a project manager has been a particular help on that last bit.

When they started freelancing in 2012, Jess primarily worked with doctoral candidates who were writing their dissertations. From there, they began working with instructors and other students.

In more recent years, Jess has been editing tabletop RPGs, and has worked on titles such as Journeys through the Radiant Citadel, Mythic Odysseys of Theros, Tasha's Cauldron of Everything, and more. Jess has also worked as an editor on various indie tRPG titles, which can be found on DMsGuild and DriveThruRPG.

While Jess focuses primarily on editing, their writing appears in titles including Uncaged Volume I, Morty Corgi’s Scroll of Mysteries, Van Richten's Guide to Ravenloft, and a handful of Scarred Lands and Starfinder titles. Jess also ocasionally writes short fiction; their prose has appeared in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction and Sunspot Literary Journal.
