Laura Bowling – Editor

Proofreader focusing on Christian non-fiction with a thorough knowledge of Scripture and theology.

Overview

As managing editor for a non-profit organization, I have edited fifteen Christian non-fiction books, five of which were published by Thomas Nelson. Whether it is a misplaced comma, an incorrect Scripture reference, or inconsistent capitalization, I will find and correct it. With an academic background in Bible, as well as years in full-time ministry, I understand the importance of making sure your book communicates God's Word clearly and accurately. My editing process includes reading the manuscript at least twice and checking Scripture quotations multiple times before completing a project because I know there's nothing worse than spotting an error while reading a book.
