  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

After writing a Christian book, how do you get it reviewed and published?

Hi, I'm Lily. There are two ways you could get your book published: traditional or indie published.

If you want to get your book traditionally published, you'll need to find an agent (because many publishing houses won't accept unsolicited manuscripts.) If you go indie (like through Ingram Spark or Amazon) you'll need to invest in a really good book cover and editor. Actually, I took some courses at the Christian Writer's Institute. One of the speakers has a podcast on publishing. If you're interested, I'll leave some links below to help you get started:

The Insititute's website:
The Christian Writers Institute – We Train Writers

Here's their podcast for traditional publishing:
You searched for pros and cons of traditional publishing - Christian Publishing Show

Here's the episodes for indie (or 'self') publishing:
You searched for pros and cons of indie publishing - Christian Publishing Show

You're thread says 'How Do You Get a Christian Editor?' If you're still looking for one, I know of one site that has Christian editors (I haven't worked with them yet; my writing projects are still in the drafting stage. But I found them through a Christian writers' website.)

If you like, here's their link and you can check it out if you want:
Christian Editor Connection – Personally connecting established freelance editors with the people who need them

I hope this helps! :)
