Welcome to the JM Editorial website. JM Editorial is here to serve your editorial needs, from proofreading to substantive editing. I am Jennifer Morgan, the principal editor for JM Editorial. I have degrees from UC Berkeley and The College of William and Mary, as well as more than 9 years of freelance editing experience. (A detailed resume is available online.)

My experience in working with diverse topics ranging from science (earthquake engineering and NASA-funded microgravity research) to education (gifted education, constructivism, and integration) to the humanities (sociological studies of weddings, the history of French cheese, and ancient Greek philosophy) makes me the right choice to work with your manuscript.

I work with individuals, corporations, and publishers to help make material clear, consistent, concise, and interesting. I am well-versed in grammar, punctuation, and style issues and am familiar with most popular style manuals. I have also helped to develop style manuals tailored to individual offices and projects. Best of all, I am detail-oriented -- some might say nitpicky -- a trait that can help your publication be the best it can be.
