Testimonials

Jessica Hamm knows all about storytelling and book refinement. During my ten years of publication, she’s helped me edit every one of my novels that have hit the shelves. Even before and beyond that, she’s assisted me during the plotting and planning phases of many a synopsis. Her wise insights into characterization and plotting—along with a keen eye for grammar and copyedits—always elevate my stories to the next level. I’m so grateful to have her in my corner, and wouldn’t publish a single book without sending it her way first!

Jessica is a master editor. She protects the voice, purpose, and intent behind every scene, shining it until it sparkles. More than that, though, Jessica knows how to help a story fulfill its ultimate potential and she doesn’t accept less than an author’s best. I could not have asked for a better editor. My books are better because of her. For that matter, my writing is better, too, and I will forever be grateful for her.

Working with Jessica has been a complete joy. She edited my first five novels, and they are better because of her experienced eye. Jessica possesses a knack for pushing an author to their full potential while also maintaining their voice. She encourages growth in writers and their manuscripts, polishing both until they shine. And she does this all with kindness and wit that somehow make the grueling process of editing fun (or at least bearable!). I highly recommend Jessica for any upcoming writing projects you might have.

Jessica has edited my last three books and has elevated my writing skills exponentially. She was my editor at a traditional publishing house for two of my books, and the third one I decided to self-publish. She has the eye and focus to catch small inconsistencies as well as the bigger ones, and makes positive and crucial suggestions for line edits. There are editors, and then there are editors. She’s one of the best, and I can’t imagine publishing a book without her input.

Jessica helped me resurrect and regain vision and direction for my novel when I had lost my passion for it. She charged reasonable prices but went above and beyond, responding quickly to questions and providing constructive feedback in a kind and thought-provoking way. Authors who encounter obstacles in writing can trust in Jessica’s patience, encouragement, and skills to guide them through.

I absolutely love working with Jessica. She is my first line of defense when it comes to writing. Her expert feedback helps each story come alive. I’m so grateful to have her gracious input to refine novellas or full-length novels.

If you want keen eyes on a project, knowledge on development, or simply a thumbs up or down, Jessica won’t let you down. Having worked with her for over fifteen years, she’s shown time and again what another opinion can mean to come up with a better project!

Jessica brings solid experience to the table as an editor. She’s a pleasure to work with and knows how to keep an author’s interests foremost while navigating the complex world of publishing.
