  • AboutMy name’s Jenny and I’m a 26-year-old geek living in Liverpool. I have a degree in English literture and Media studies, a passion for geek culture, and I enjoy writing about things I love! I write as much as I can around my work – mostly comic book reviews for Travelling Man, stuff for the craft zine Snippets, and whatever short fiction I feel like doing. Hopefully the site should be easy enough to navigate around but please let me know if there are any issues with it, as I have largely built it myself. If you have any questions, or would like me to write something for your website or publication, I’m always up for interesting opportunities! Contact Me Back to the Homepage

    • ComicsMost of the writing here is on behalf of Travelling Man, my favourite comic book store! You’ll find lots of lovely comic book reviews and some interviews with the fantastic writers and artists that bring them to life. I also tend to do a round-up of Thought Bubble Festival in Leeds.
    • CraftingI’ve been a huge fan of the craft website Cut Out & Keep right back to its early days, and I’ve been lucky enough to get to know the geniuses behind it, Cat and Tom! I’ve had the honour of meeting and interviewing some great people in the music and crafting industries – even a burlesque superstar! I was editor for The Fandom Issue of Snippets magazine, and I’m now officially a co-editor of Snippets, so look forward to that in the future. If you like, you can check out my crafts –> here
    • Film & TVThis is probably my most scant category I’m afraid! It’s mostly stuff I’ve written just because I loved whatever it was, or it was for the Neutral Magazine from York St John University in 2013 which I wrote for and edited.
    • MiscellaneousYou’ll find all kinds of junk here – short stories and poems, game reviews, little pieces for various publications that don’t fit neatly anywhere else, and the article version of my dissertation about women and video games.
    • MusicI’ve written comic book reiews and interviews with musicians for a few different publication: Rhythm Magazine – where I did an internship as a teenager – Sonisphere the alternative magazine, Travelling Man (on the rare occasion), or Snippets, a craft zine that gets some pretty amazing musical guests!

Proofreading & Editing

As a copywriter, I’m naturally the first person that people come to with awkward grammar questions! I’ve always enjoyed proofreading, from helping friends at university by checking over their essays, to finding and fixing typos and insensitive words on websites, and more recently for a novel and full website copy!

Neri Karra

I’m incredibly lucky to come from a family with so many creative, talented people – not least my sister, Katharine Mugridge, whose graphic design and branding is top notch. As copywriting isn’t her main job, she enlisted me to proofread and edit all of the text she’d put together for designer handbag manufacturer Neri Karra, and was able to suggest a few changes that would emphasise the right tone of voice.

Thalara

As a board game lover myself, I get incredibly frustrated with poorly written rules. As such I decided to offer my talents on Reddit, and Alexander reached out to ask if I could help with translations and sense checking for the game. The Kickstarter in 2021 raised more than double the needed funds to make this game a reality!

The Wolf’s True Love

The largest piece of proofreading I’ve ever done! I offered support to a friend who was writing her first book, an adult fantasy romance. Although it required a few goes over, Lilith and I were really pleased with the end result – her storytelling is fantastic, she just needed a little help with readability!
