Marketing
Promoting your book after you publish it is critical for your success. We help you spread the word on social media and build your audience.
Children's Books

I have never in my life worked with a nicer, kinder, and [more] experienced group of people as I did with Christian Editing & Design. From the editing team of Jen Miller, Karen Weigand, and Bethany Clark; to cover designer Sandy Armstrong; to interior design[er] Shannon Herring; and to Celia Horst in marketing, I was treated with respect and I was bathed in prayer. Every step of the book process was completed by highly professional people. I would never hesitate to use them again and I recommend them to any future writers who want a job well done for a reasonable price.

My experience was incredible. I couldn't and wouldn't have written a book without the help of Christian Editing and Design. CED really cares about helping people. They walk you through the process and explain everything really well. The staff [were] very encouraging to me and were very Christ-like in all their phone calls, emails and texts. I will continue to recommend CED to those who are wanting to write a book.

I am very happy with working with you. I like how you are developing relations with me. You work with me, get to know my style and voice, and I am finding a good rhythm and pace with you.

Christian Editing and Design gets an A+++ for dependability, integrity, and excellence. The entire staff truly lives up to the name “Christian.” My book is a reality because of Shannon Herring. She went far beyond her job description to work with this struggling first-time writer. Her artwork is more than mere human talent. She has a special gift from the Lord that blesses my spirit every time I look at the book.

Thank you so much Christian Editing and Design! You have made my day, month and year! You are all such a great team. Thanks so much to Kim Merritt, who so beautifully illustrated my book and more; to Dixie Phillips, whose editing made the text flow so much better; and to Shannon Evans Herring, whose formatting has pulled it all together into a picture book. Ladies, you have been wonderful to work with—I highly recommend this company.

I enjoyed working with Bethany and Jonathan. This was my first experience with a professional editing company, so I wasn’t sure what to expect. It was a very positive experience!

They were all wonderful and very encouraging to work with, showing concern, encouraging, and willing to explain and teach about the book writing process! I loved their personal touches of calling, FaceTime, and willingness to explain and help walk me through the journey.
