Book Editing that Validates, Illuminates, Transforms
“Working with Jennifer
was one of the smartest decisions I made while writing Lady Tremaine. She was the best first set of eyes I could have hoped for: thorough, insightful, and endlessly well-read…I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
— Rachel Hochhauser, Author of LADY TREMAINE (St. Martin’s Press, 2026)
“She has the rare ability to excavate buried meanings and sculpt them into passages that sparkle with clarity. Her razor-sharp edits and contagious enthusiasm make her the perfect collaborator. “
— Ty Tashiro, Author of AWKWARD (HarperCollins, 2017)
“Jennifer sees beneath the prose to the heart of the work. She listens deeply to the voice of the story and her guidance is both intentional and kind, always leading me toward a clearer, more powerful version of the book I hoped to write.”
— Kiara Rose, Author of WHAT BLOOMS AND WHAT BREAKS (Now Querying)
Hi, I’m Jennifer.
I created Maniphesto Editing to help writers bring their singular ideas and stories to the world. My goal: make every manuscript shine, illuminating the authentic voice and vision of the writer.
As an editor, I’ve contributed to multiple manuscripts published by “Big Five” publishing houses, including imprints of Macmillan and HarperCollins.
I have training in developmental editing from the Editorial Arts Academy and am a member of the Editorial Freelancers Association. I’m also a copywriter and content strategist for global brands, including Nike and Allbirds.
