Included with the CPPNick Carrington, PhD. Writer and Editor
For the last ten years, I've been a writing instructor at Cedarville University. My creative and journalistic writing has appeared in Heart of Flesh Literary Journal, Servants of Grace, Outreach Magazine, Servants of Grace, and others. I also serve as an editor for Hope Blooms, the digital publication of the Early Pregnancy Loss Association. For the last few years, I have edited fiction for aspiring authors.
Hello, I'm Nick Carrington, and God has given me a love of the written word. I have written fiction, articles, website content, and features, and have edited all of the same. My desire is for Christian writers to steward their gift well, writing both to serve God and others.
In this course, I tell you why to seek an editor, how to find them, and what you'll likely pay. No book is as good as it could be without an experienced editor's touch.

The Course Curriculum
In this course, you will learn how to find and work with an editor.
By taking this course, you will learn:
1. Why you need an editor and what to complete before hiring one.
There's a big difference between your family or friends giving you feedback and a professional editor combing through your work for errors and other issues. In this module, we discuss what to complete before hiring an editor, who should read your work first, and why you should hire an editor in the first place.
2. How to find an editor and what you'll pay.
You want the right editor for your book. How can you find him or her? In this module, we cover how to search for an editor and what you can expect to pay based on current editorial rates.
3. What it looks like to work with an editor
In this module, we discuss the kinds of edits professional editors make, how they go about making those changes, and how long you can expect the process to take.
