    I'm very happy I sent the manuscript to Jess. Her critical insight was just what I needed to improve the story. The inline comments were also incredibly helpful. I wish I'd found her years ago. Thank you so very much!

    Jess gave me really thoughtful, helpful feedback on an early draft of my novel. She pointed out what was working while giving clear, actionable notes on where the story/characters needed more development or flat out didn't make sense. I'm excited to use her feedback to revise. Would absolutely work with her again!

    Always a pleasure working with Jess. I swear, before I show anything to the world, I show it to her first. Her feedback is invaluable. Highly recommend!

    Jess did an excellent job line editing the opening chapter of my novel. She was quick, professional, and very accommodating with my schedule, which made the whole process smooth and easy. Her edits were thoughtful, clear, and genuinely improved the chapter without taking away from my voice as a writer....
