An editor works with the author to turn the manuscript into a finished book. They negotiate contracts, edit the books for content, structure and on a line-by-line basis, and collaborate with internal departments on how to package, market, and publicize the book.

This is an amazing opportunity to work with renowned Christian, faith-based children’s titles published by the WaterBrook imprint under Random House Children’s Books. Our authors include Carole Boston Weatherford, Lori Z.
