Christi Martin

Editor | Proofreader

Bio

My passion is to equip authors like you to publish excellent books, and I specialize in copyediting and proofreading for speculative fiction and creative (especially Christian) nonfiction. I’m an expert in The Chicago Manual of Style and have extensive experience with the Associated Press Stylebook. I’m the founder and former co-coordinator of the EFA’s Georgia chapter, and I’m an active participant in a number of communities that encourage and assist editors and writers.
