About Jenna

About me

I'm a freelance editor with over 14 years of experience in the publishing industry. I've worked for both big-name (Penguin Random House Children's, Taylor & Francis, Springer) and independent (Amberley) publishers in a variety of roles that featured proofreading, editing, commissioning, writing and project management. 

Areas I specialise in

I'm lucky to have worked on titles across a range of genres – lifestyle books, educational titles, science publications and academic works, to name but a few – but I have a particular passion for children's fiction and non-fiction and history publishing.

What I can do

I offer editorial project management, editing and proofreading support. As well as working on books in an editorial capacity, I've authored titles myself. I know how nerve-racking sending your diligently written manuscript to an editor can feel. I offer a sensitive approach that will help you create your best work and engage your reader. I can assist with removing distracting errors and ensuring consistency of style throughout a manuscript.
