Ola Czajkowski – Editor

Children's book editor with 4+ yrs experience in a Christian publishing company | also reading sci-fi/fantasy, fiction and more!

Overview

Before I lost my job due to coronavirus-related downsizing, I worked as an editor at Paulist Press, the oldest Catholic publishing company in America. I worked on various Catholic spirituality books, from memoirs to self-help, but I primarily worked on children's books. Some of the books I'm most proud of include as My God, Your God, Our God by Franz Hubner, An African Gospel by Bénédite de la Roncière, The Parables of Jesus by Bénédicte Jeancourt-Galignani, and Noel: An Unforgettable Night! by Claire Dumont. I would love to work with you on your next best children's book. I'm also an avid reader of fantasy, sci-fi, fiction, and LGBTQ+ lit. My special interests include botany, world cultures, legends and folklore, and religion/spirituality. Worldbuilding is one of my favorite things to do, so if you're having trouble with some details in your fantasy/sci-fi universe, or are looking to create a fresh, unique world that hasn't been done a thousand times before, I'm the best editor you could ask for. I can't wait to see what you're working on, and I look forward to hearing from you!
