Welcome to the JM Editorial website. JM Editorial is here to serve your editorial needs, from proofreading to substantive editing. Jennifer Morgan, JM Editorial's principal editor, has degrees from UC Berkeley and The College of William and Mary, as well as more than 10 years of freelance editing experience. (A detailed resume is available online.)
Jennifer's 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 her the right choice for your manuscript.
Jennifer works with individuals, corporations, and publishers to help make their material clear, consistent, concise, and interesting. She is well-versed in grammar, punctuation, and style issues and familiar with most popular style manuals. She has also helped to develop style manuals tailored to individual offices and projects. Best of all, Jennifer is extremely nitpicky, a trait that can help your publication be the best it can be.
