Hiya! 👋 I'm booking #editing and #grantwriting gigs for the summer/fall months. Does it feel early for this? Sort of. Does time pass quicker over the summer months? I'm pretty sure science would confirm yes. Contact me if you want to chat about fit and scope! www.jennrossiter.com
Background: grey with purple and grey dots. Text: Now booking. Editing: June and July. Grant writing: Aug, Sep, Oct. Website URL at the bottom.

I'm back from a 🎄 pre-holiday holiday on the west coast. It rained a lot. A lot a lot. And this little menace "assisted" with tree decoration. Not foolin' me! #stetpet #edibuddies #catsofbluesky

I recently posted on my blog about the pros and cons of using AI in grant writing. It seems there are a lot of tools out there that claim to write an entire grant in just a couple of minutes. But are they winning grants? 🤔 jennrossiter.com/2025/09/22/g... #GrantWriting #AI #Research

I'm remembering now (the hard way, of course) that the key to writing well is writing consistently. It doesn't have to be top shelf writing every session, but turns out writer brain can atrophy if neglected too long. Now if you'll excuse me...

This sticker just about sums it up. With three deadlines on the same day, I am running on fumes rn. Maybe I'll sleep in tomorrow. (I won't.)
