Jane Ross is the owner of MJR Publishing Services, providing professional editing and publishing services since 1996.

What does it take for a writer's words to truly connect with their readers?

Of course, tightening and polishing your writing are vital steps to your success as an author. Readers judge your authority on how well your words have been copy-edited and proofread. But error-free writing on its own does not create that elusive connection that all writers seek. I can help you create that connection.

I have specialized in clear writing and careful editing for clients ranging from technical and educational publishers to non-profits for more than ten years. And in the past eight years, through my work as a writing group facilitator, lifewriting editor, workshop presenter, and publishing consultant, I have helped many writers reach that deeper level of writing that lets their words truly connect with their readers.

Text: Writing and editing
Workshop presentations on writing and editing
Coaching: providing author coaching, critiquing, and consultation
Facilitating writing groups
Coordinating print publishing projects including layout in Adobe InDesign and MS Publisher
