WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
"I loved working with Editing By Jessica Sydney! She did a fantastic job copy editing my manuscript and to top it all off she did it in a timely manner. I also appreciate the payment plan options she had (which really helps when I’m working part time while in school!) She even answered all of my MANY questions. I look forward to working with her in the future."
—Jasmine Dade, Author of The Prom Queen Project
Jessica is honestly an editing genius! She is also really affordable, which I know is super important in the indie author world since publishing your own book can be expensive as I’ve heard from other authors. She’s honestly the sweetest person ever with a heart of gold, and I’m so grateful that I get to be one of her clients.
—Emma R. Wright, Author of The Puppet Master
"It was a really great experience to work with Jessica. I’m a first-time author, and this was the first time I’ve hired an editor. I’m so glad I reached out to her, and she said yes to working on my book. I don’t think this experience could’ve been better, and I’m happy with her edits/corrections."
