Jessica Guarneri

Freelance copy editor & proofreader

my life

I'm an avid writer & reader who loves to immerse myself in fantastical worlds, and I'm dedicated to helping my fellow writers improve. (At the very least, I can guarantee you won't ship your manuscripts off with embarrassing typos.) I'm especially fond of fantasy (both adult & YA), romance (ditto), history, and every combination of the above, but I also do mysteries.I live in New York City with my parents and two cats.
