MEET THE EDITOR
Jill Nojack has a BSEd in English with cum laude honors from Kent State University. In addition to her educational qualifications, she has had paid copy editing or proofreading experience across a broad range of non-editing-specific positions including academic publications, business documentation, and technical writing. Currently, she freelances for indie authors seeking a reliable editor/proofreader at affordable prices.
Although Jill’s MA in Sociology doesn’t help her proofread your work, the research skills she learned while obtaining it help her to diagnose factual problems in a story. She does not claim to be expert in all fields, but her research background in combination with a broad range of knowledge and interests help her identify areas that may need factual corrections when she is editing your work.
