I have the pleasure of utilizing Jen as my beta reader. Her feedback is always spot on. Any suggestions she might have are always presented from the POV of the reader, which I love. She also points out scenes or lines she really loves or leaves a funny comment that has me smiling as I’m reviewing them. She’s a talented editor, and I consider myself lucky to have her in my corner. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a beta reader!

I first met Jennifer when a fellow author recommended her to proof my first book after getting it back from my previous editor. Quickly Jennifer told me she'd be happy to proofread it but ultimately believed my story deserved a more in-depth look. Boy was she right! I was a newbie author who still had things to learn and she was by far the most important teacher (of sorts) that helped me develop throughout my journey. I can honestly say my series wouldn't be what it is today without her. No matter the time of day, she is always up to give me her input or advice. She never makes me feel down about my writing because her constructive criticism is always encouraging, and sometimes funny, rather than disheartening. Sometimes I feel as if I ask her advice too much, mainly because I've grown to value it so much, but she never is bothered by it. If anything, she treats me as a friend and is always happy to help. Words cannot explain how happy I am that I found such an amazing partner in my book’s journey. You will NEVER be disappointed by her and I highly recommend and will never use anyone else but her.

Jennifer has edited my books for the last few years and I can honestly say I wouldn't consider using anyone else. She is efficient, professional and has a keen eye for detail. The comments and feedback she offers are clear (and fun!) and her suggestions are explained well. I would have no hesitation recommending her and have already booked her for my next two novels.

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jennifer since I first decided to publish Wanted. I stumbled across her website through another author’s recommendation and couldn’t be more happy with my decision to work with her. I really struggled connecting with other editors, but working with Jennifer is like working with a friend. She knows when to kick my ass and I’m totally grateful for that! At first I was so lost and had no idea what I was doing, but Jennifer put me at complete ease. She beta read for me first and then slayed the editing, really perfecting my story. When I had a freak-out moment she was there to squash my anxiety and help guide me, which was something I needed being new to the indie publishing world. I highly recommend Gypsy Heart Editing for you book needs! You won’t regret it!

Jennifer Tovar has been beta reading for me for almost as long as I’ve been writing. Her insights and inputs are invaluable. She’s has been instrumental in helping me develop my stories and characters. The bonus for me is that Jennifer Tovar is also a skilled editor. I’d be insane not to use her as a beta reader, but more importantly she’s always motivated and willing to lend an ear, her time and her red pen. I’m humbled by her commitment and dedication to supporting authors and their work.

Stephanie Smith

I have used Jennifer not only for beta reading but also some editing too. Her feedback is thorough, concise and to the point, while staying constructive and encouraging. I highly recommend Jen as a great support system to any author.

Jennifer Tovar's beta reading skills really helped me find some trouble spots in my manuscript and brought some things to my attention I never would have noticed otherwise. Thank you Jennifer!

I wasn’t sure what an editor actually did until I had Gypsy Heart Editing (Jennifer) edit an excerpt from my very first book.  I have to say that she went above and beyond my expectations.  When I wrote my excerpt I was not very confident in my writing, but by the final edit I felt my excerpt couldn’t have been better.  Jennifer was the perfect and only person for this job.  She was very professional and prompt.  When making edits or suggestions, she found a way to explain why it needed to be changed or something needed to be added.  I will continue to use Jennifer anytime I need something edited.  If you haven’t used her already, give her a shot.  Trust me, you won’t be sorry.

Aleya Michelle

My name is Aleya Michelle and I'm a self published indie author. I came across Gypsy Heart Editing on a local site and contacted them to edit my first book 'Breaking my Heart'. Jennifer Tovar, owner of Gypsy Heart, replied almost instantly and was very professional, helpful and friendly. From the start to finish of my edits I found Jennifer to be patient, kind and very talented. The best part for me was that I was blind going into edits and Jennifer really helped me through my journey and taught me useful tools! I will be using Gypsy Heart Editing for my next two books and more in the future. I highly recommend their service!

CT Phillips

Gypsy Heart Editing (GHE) in general and Jennifer Tovar specifically have been amazing to work with. Quick turnaround time, deep detailed edits, and smart efficient rewrite suggestions seem to be the hallmark of this organization. I took more than 90% of all editorial notes and when I was finished my polished work looked and read a hundred times better.          

I predict that this new and amazing editing service will soon be in high demand. I recommend any Indie Authors or Publishing Houses strongly consider taking GHE under contract. You will NOT be disappointed.

No writer should ever be his or her own editor. This is an axiom I’ve believed my entire career and while I’ve done my best to live by it there a have been some very bad editorial decisions in my back catalogue. I have spent the past year looking for a permanent editor who fits me as a writer and me as the Publisher at Gorillas with Scissors Press. Gypsy Heart Editing has been the answer to my prayers. Fast, efficient, and with a command of the English language which leaves me in awe. I highly recommend this company in general and Mrs. Jennifer Tovar in particular. I predict we will be hearing big things from her in the future.
