fresh entertainment reviews, cool content
Looking for fresh entertainment content for your print or Web publication? Consider my reviews, blogs, recaps, celeb profiles, and feature stories. I write about all things related to movies, DVDs, TV shows, and celebs.
I’ve been in the writing biz since the 1980s and have extensive contacts with movie studios, TV networks, and celebrity publicists. My “Reel Life With Jane” columns appear in publications scattered across the globe (check out a few here). I’m the assistant editor of TVSquad.com, and my credits also include iVillage.com, CliqueClack.com, USA Weekend, Family Circle, Woman’s Day, Ladies’ Home Journal, SELF, Fitness, Christian Science Monitor, AARP, Kaboose.com, CinemaBlend.com, and many others.
Here are a few options. Artwork is included, and I’m happy to customize content for your readers, i.e. tweens, teens, grownups, pets...ok, maybe not pets, but hey, who knows what they watch when we’re not around!
