Paul Miller – Editor

Proofreader and editor of Christian nonfiction, biblical and church history, US history, biographies, gardening, and more.

Overview

I currently freelance for a couple Christian publishers and ministries and have worked with a Christian ministry to the Amish. I like to work on nonfiction manuscripts that have a Christian perspective and message. Biographies, church history, stories of revival, and inspirational and biblical messages are greatly needed today. I am glad to work on documents of many topics, though, from gardening to life lessons to history.

You have a story to tell. You have a message that others need to hear. Let me help you improve your manuscript by keeping your voice and message while checking your manuscript for consistency, clarity, and grammatical accuracy.

I edit using Microsoft Track Changes so you can see what changes are made and so you can read my comments, suggestions, and questions right in the document.

I use the Chicago Manual of Style and the Christian Writer's Manual of Style as my main guides, and I use serial (Oxford) commas.

I am so grateful that I had the opportunity to work with Paul on my manuscript. He was timely, accessible, and exceeded my expectations in every area of the editing and proofreading process. I could tell that he is someone who is invested in the projects he commits to. This was evidenced by the extent of his corrections and the depth of his comments and suggestions. My manuscript would not be anywhere near as accessible without his work. I will be sure to call upon him for any future writing projects I might engage in.

Paul is a top-notch, eagle-eyed proofreader and copyeditor, and he's my go-to guy for the spit-polish needed to make a manuscript shine. His extensive knowledge of the Bible and style manuals means he makes corrections and tweaks with confidence, and he goes the extra mile to point out formatting inconsistencies. He turns his projects in on or before the due date, and to top it all off, he's engaging to work with. I highly recommend Paul!

I have utilized Paul to proof and edit our quarterly newsletter and other correspondence for our ministry for a few years now. I am thoroughly impressed with his great attention to detail. Nothing gets past him! He also includes good thoughts and suggestions to improve articles. By working with him, he has also helped me improve my own writing skills. I appreciate Paul's professionalism, humor, and always turning projects around quickly. Paul is simply the best!
