Jessica S.

Proofreader and copyeditor, college essay reviewer, website bio writer

As a child, I was named "Best Storyteller" by teachers and peers; as an adult, I'd edit my friends' stories just for fun. Now it's my career, and I love to use my natural and acquired skills to help written communication fulfill its purpose—whether that's to educate or entertain. In 2010, I started freelance writing as a side gig, crafting B2C content and telling true stories. After completing my B.A. in English in 2016, I realized my true calling is proofreading and editing. Since then, I've completed numerous proofreading and copyediting/line editing projects, specializing in the following: *Christian and inspirational nonfiction and fiction *historical nonfiction and fiction *bio pages and blogs *college admissions essays *children's/YA fiction Contact me for a quote for your project, and I'll help make your writing the very best it can be.
