Purposeful. Powerful. Published. Christian editing. Christian publishing & Christian community, for writers who believe their words matter. Writerful Books has spent years helping authors sharpen their manuscripts and find their readers. Today, we’re doing something more focused, and more personal: we exist solely to serve Christian writers, novelists, memoirists, and self-help authors, who want to write books that mean something. Why The Change? AI has transformed this industry. Any writer can now run a manuscript through a machine and get competent line edits in seconds. What a machine cannot give you is conviction, an editor who reads your work looking for truth, not just technique, and who will tell you honestly whether it’s ready, and whether it’s needed. That’s the editor we’ve decided to be. A More Selective Approach We’re no longer a general editing service for every genre and every writer. We now work exclusively with Christian fiction and Christian self-help manuscripts, and we only take on new writers whose work we genuinely believe in. If we don’t think a manuscript is ready, or isn’t the right fit for what we do, we’ll tell you plainly, and point you elsewhere. Our name goes on fewer books. We want it to mean more when it does. What We Offer: ► Christian book editing, developmental and line editing for fiction and self-help manuscripts ► Literary agenting, representation for Christian authors ready to query publishers ► Independent publishing — Writerful Books is building a small list of uplifting Christian fiction and non-fiction, published directly ► A Christian writing and blogging community, articles, author interviews, and resources for writers of faith ► Christian merchandise, for readers and writers who want to carry their faith into the everyday Our Conviction We believe good books can still change lives, and that faith belongs at the center of the stories we tell, not chasing the industry’s latest checklist of what’s fashionable, but asking a simpler question: is this honest, is it good, and does it point toward something true? That’s the standard we’re holding ourselves to as we build this next chapter. Don’t leave your manuscript’s potential up to chance. Our editors have helped thousands of writers in Australia, Canada, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, UK, and the USA refine their work and get published. We’re passionate about helping you share your story with the world. View our book editing services below to request a quote. Let’s embark on a journey to realise your literary ambitions! About Us Why Work With Us? How to Get Your First Book Published Here’s what our authors had to say.. - Russell T. Thank you for the assessment. I will make some of the changes you suggested and go forward. I don't know if the work is good enough for publishing, either by a commercial publisher or by self-publishing. Do you think I should try to publish it? Thanks for your input. RT - Russell T.Read Moreread less - Nikhil S. Thank you for your advice on the manuscript. You are right that this is an earlier draft and it needs some more revising, but I think I have some ideas based on your comments. Take care, Nikhil. - Nikhil S.Read Moreread less - John B. Thank you for providing a very informative and constructive critique. I feel most of the observations were quite valid and I will proceed with further refinements and edits. Thank you again, John. - John B.Read Moreread less - Natalie J. Thank you so much for the report. It had great feedback. - Natalie J.Read Moreread less - Graham W. I have read your feedback. It said what I thought it would and more. I am again exited about the novel and will delve in again in December for the second go, with your notes in mind. I have a lot of story written in history of the characters, I will now blend the two to make a much more whole story-line You mentioned editing, which I think is gonna be a necessity. Is this genre something you can do? I will finish off the 2nd draft and maybe treat myself to an editor. Once again thanks for the feedback and the well thought out explanations. Graham. - Graham W.Read Moreread less - Benjamin G. I've just been looking over the beta reader report and can't thank you enough. You identified so many issues I would never have found on my own. I agree with all your suggestions and am excited to go through another revision to improve the manuscript. Your report was much more insightful and detailed than I expected. I will be referring you to fellow writers looking for a good beta reader. Thanks again. Sincerely, Benjamin J. Gohs - Benjamin G.Read Moreread less - Kevin O. I was clearly led to the right Irishman to beta read the book: what with a daughter with Iona in her name, a Jamaican connection and a knowledge of that part of Irish history, who better? I really appreciate all of the details that you replied with, it's very helpful. I mentioned that I have two endings and would love your opinion on them. I have attached a new file. This is actually the first ending. The one you read was the new alternate. This version begins at chapter 53. Thanks for doing this. I'm really curious to hear what your thoughts are. I am just beginning the agent query process.. - Kevin O.Read Moreread less - Chris J. Thanks Declan. There is a lot of work to do. I am not looking to become a professional writer, I just have a story I want to tell. Thanks so much for the report. Regards, Chris. - Chris J.Read Moreread less - Mary K. Thanks for your quick turnaround on the report, but even more importantly, thank you for your thoughtful and constructive comments. I've been hesitant to contact the victim's family but you've encouraged me to give it a go and see what happens. Truthfully, in my mind this book is about possibly getting justice for Tatanisha as well as Dell. Thanks again for your excellent suggestions. Sincerely, Mary. - Mary K.Read Moreread less - Tony M. I wasn't expecting your email for another couple of weeks. What a pleasant surprise. I've yet to read the reports but I look forward to it. Thanks also for the developmental editing suggestion. Are we talking like a mentoring role? Either way, I might actually take you up on that as I've been looking for such 'guidance'. [...] Anyway, I'll get on to these reports and will be in touch. Oh, and it's still my intention (in the distant future) to seek a manuscript assessment. But, first things first. Thanks very much. Tony. - Tony M.Read Moreread less - Paul B. Hi Declan, I will definitely be keeping Writerful in mind for future projects! Thank you again, Paul B. - Paul B.Read Moreread less - Morgan G. Thank you again for taking the time to look over my work. I never thought it would actually go somewhere so I'm beyond excited to have a stranger think it has potential for more. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU! Best Wishes, Morgan - Morgan G.Read Moreread less - Allison D. Thanks very much, Declan—impressively speedy! I’ve passed your report on to the editor. Allison Draper - HarperCollins - Allison D.Read Moreread less - Jennifer B. Thank you so much. This feedback was extremely helpful and I think it will be crucial in assisting me to tell the story I want. I greatly appreciate it! Sincerely, Jennifer Byrd - Jennifer B.Read Moreread less - Chris How fast you work! Thank you for your beta-reading and yes, your revisions. I feel privileged. Your comments are quite encouraging. In light of what you have written, I will only send you the completed work. It will take a few months. Your feedback tells me this: 1. I am in the right direction, the pace is well set, my English grammar and style are adequate, but will need to be revised by a professional. 2. The story summary is enticing. 3. Judging the first chapter, the book has good marketing potential. All that galvanizes me. If I got it wrong, by all means, tell me. I am looking forward to contacting you when the first draft of the Great Inversion will be tweaked and ready, but not professionally revised. Most cordially, Chris. - ChrisRead Moreread less - Marlane A. Thank you for your feedback. I’ll work through your editing recommendations, which I found helpful and encouraging.
