"I am just one author that she has spoken inspired words to. She has carried at her breast countless tales, behind the scenes. You can find her name tucked into published works, sometimes in the acknowledgements, other times listed as editor. Now I hold a better understanding of the significance of that. Kim Childress has championed and polished many a worthy tale to its place upon the shelves of bookstores, but more importantly she champions and polishes worthy stories so that they will impact hearts to affect the future in a positive way. I am honored to be able to call her my editor, and more than that my true friend."

"Not many editors have your sense of humor or skill. You did so much to help me develop the characters--It's like you made friends with Howard and Franklin before I did, and then got me to see them through your eyes."
