Catholic Editing

Catholic writers require a specific knowledge set in addition to editing expertise. Specifically, they need a Catholic editor who understands the faith at a deep level. As a lifelong practicing Catholic, I offer a deep knowledge of the Roman Catholic faith, along with knowledge of many non-Catholic Christian faiths. Whether Catholic or not, if you have a religious book, my task is to help you to create a powerful manuscript to support your ideas. Among the Catholic books I have edited are (more are in-process):
