Jefferson Editorial

Editorial services for publishers, companies, and the authors behind the books.

Services

Whether you're a publisher bringing a title to print, a company in need of content, or an independent author shaping a manuscript, I offer editing and writing services tailored to your project.

Feedback on structure, organization, pacing, and audience fit; ideal for authors shaping a manuscript or publishers assessing a work in progress.
Sentence-level edits for flow, clarity, rhythm, and voice.
Grammar, punctuation, consistency, and style-guide alignment (Chicago, AP, or house style), plus edits for clarity, flow, and awkward constructions. I work with publishers, independent authors, and companies across a range of industries.
Final review of manuscripts or typeset pages, checking for typos, formatting inconsistencies, cross-references, and continuity.
Books, blogs, educational materials, and interview-based case studies, shaped from your initial ask into a finished piece that connects with readers.

About Me

Hi, I’m Morgan. I'm a copyeditor and writer with a BA from Barnard College of Columbia University and over a decade of professional writing and editing experience. Though my career spans a range of industries and formats, much of my recent work has focused on editing cookbooks and nonfiction manuscripts for DK/Penguin Random House.

As an editor, I bring your writing into clearer, more fully realized form, without sanding away what makes it yours.

As a writer, I start with the spark you bring—or help you find one—and shape it into a piece that resonates with readers.

I care about inclusive language, accessibility, and the small decisions that make writing feel polished and alive. If that's the kind of partner you're looking for, I'd love to talk.
