Fran J Donegan

New York, NJ

EditorTechnical WriterWriter

As a professional writer and editor, I specialize in home and lifestyle topics. I also excel at turning complex, technical material into easy-to-understand language that is both informative and engaging. Part of the fun of freelancing is tackling new topics. In the past, I've written about or edited books, digital content, or articles on such diverse areas as koi ponds, a grilling cookbook, a white paper on painter certifications, and a business plan on a new social network. My rates are reasonable; I am a stickler when it comes to getting the facts right; and I hold deadlines sacred.

Jessica Robles

Rahway, NJ

WriterSocial MediaReporter

I've always been interested in telling stories even when it didn't seem so obvious before. After I immerse myself in a particular topic (e.g. international financial auditing principles, federal regulations, regional medical standards, or statutory legal developments), I work hard to turn complicated (and sometimes banal) subjects into something that connects with people (clients, patients, families, consumers). My undergraduate degree is in technical communications with a specialization in chemistry, and I anticipate earning a master’s degree in journalism from Harvard University (May 2019). SPECIALTIES: Telling true stories well, producing videos on a shoestring budget, managing social media strategies, developing platform-specific content, analyzing complex data to tell a compelling story.

Diana Ghazzawi

Lodi, NJ

DesignerProduction (print)Editor

I'm the rare book designer whose publishing experience goes beyond design, having worked in several book production roles, including Director of Production and Managing Editor. I've edited, proofread, indexed, and designed and laid out countless books, in addition to supervising the entire production process at small publishing houses. This broad experience allows me to provide clients with excellent guidance for all their production needs, and to design and construct books with the experience of someone who has seen, done, and managed it all. I pride myself in creating clean, elegant books and having every detail perfectly in place. Most importantly, I know that book design is more than a nice-looking page; good design is about function—it has to accommodate all of the manuscript's needs, it has to print well, and it has to be effortless to read.
