Hi! I’m Jessica

I’m a writer, editor and story coach, and I’m passionate about educating and encouraging authors so that they can put forth the best possible version of your story into the world.

In order to continue increasing my expertise, I maintain memberships with the following organizations:

  • Christian Proofreaders and Editors Network

  • National Association of Independent Writers and Editors

  • Midwest Independent Publishers Association

Our Values

  • Our greatest hope is that with each project, you would grow in your confidence, skill and knowledge

  • We endeavor to serve your needs as the writer first and foremost, to do so we know we must be honest and transparent with our goals, needs and feedback

  • Feedback can be difficult to receive, we know that! We are committed not only to critiquing your work but encouraging you in your strengths as a writer and the strongest elements of your manuscript!

  • We are passionate about educating writers! We love to share resources on topics you are struggling with whether it be podcasts, articles, craft books or videos!

  • We know the time you spend waiting for feedback can be one of the hardest parts of the publishing process, this is why we provide biweekly updates via email.

  • You have poured your heart into this story, and it is of the utmost importance to us that your voice and your passion come through in your writing. We work hard to provide feedback in such a way that we preserve your voice as the creator.
