Articles, op-eds, speeches, emails, video scripts. webinar scripts, fundraising letters—I write all these and more . . .
. . . and I’ll make sure yours get results.
Do you need a strong proposal to sell your book to a publisher?
Do you need someone to write a manuscript, or rework what you’ve written, to create the best book possible?
I can help.
I bring my experience as the ghostwriter of several books by New York Times bestselling authors. I’ve rewritten dozens of other books.
You deserve an editor who knows how to work with you to find a readership.
I have edited hundreds of books, including 30+ New York Times bestsellers. I’ve also served as editor of three magazines.
As an editor, I respect your voice. But I work closely with the text, line by line. That’s where I bring value to your project.
Whether you’re a small publisher . . .
. . . or an organization hoping to release your own books . . .
. . . or someone looking to self-publish . . .
. . . I can put your book together for you.
I’ll handle all the many steps from raw manuscript to having finished books. I’ll take care of editing, copyediting, layout, cover design, indexing, even getting printer bids and finding distribution.
Hi, I’m Jed
I’m a writer, a ghostwriter, and an editor who helps authors, publishers, agents, and businesses create great content to achieve their goals.
I have collaborated on books with bestselling authors. I’ve also ghostwritten book proposals, articles, speeches, and video scripts for authors, media figures, and CEOs.
Before starting Jed Donahue Editorial in 2021, I spent 25 years in publishing. I’ve served as senior editor at Penguin Random House and editor in chief of an award-winning independent press.
