I have been blessed to work with many authors of excellence over the years. A special bond forms between an author and editor as we work together to bring books to life, shaping ideas into stories that can be shared with the world. I am deeply thankful for every author I’ve had the privilege to work with. I hope I have imparted meaningful knowledge about the publishing industry and the art of revision, just as I continue to learn something new from every project and every partnership—past, present, and future.

And to all those who have referred me over the years: your referrals truly speak louder than words. The majority of the clients I work with have come through personal recommendations, and that trust means more to me than I can express. Thank you.

I’ve rounded up a sampling of authors I’ve worked with—and books created by my clients—on Bookshop, and I’m honored to share their work with you. ~ Kim Childress
