Position Overview
We are seeking a contract writer to develop and write a Christ-centered book designed for women navigating the unique season of pregnancy. We are open to different conceptual directions for this resource, including, but not limited to:
- A general book for navigating the beautifully joyful, deeply transitional, and physically exhausting season of pregnancy through the lens of the gospel.
- A targeted book that addresses specific emotional or spiritual challenges that often arise during pregnancy, such as anxiety and fear, body image in pregnancy, navigating pregnancy after a previous loss, or preparing for labor and delivery.
The ideal project will combine in-depth theology with deep empathy, meeting expectant mothers right where they are with the comforting truths of God’s Word.
Scope of Work
- Research, outline, and write a full-length manuscript (approximately 45,000–75,000 words)
- Collaborate closely with the editorial team through multiple rounds of revision
- Ensure theological alignment with The Daily Grace Co.’s doctrinal commitment
Commitment
Contract, per-project basis.
Compensation
Compensation is determined based on project scope and complexity.
Additional Information
Contractors are engaged based on the needs of specific projects and are not guaranteed ongoing or full-time work. Participation in meetings, workshops, or collaborative sessions may be requested depending on the project timeline.
Why Publish with The Daily Grace Co.?
With over a decade of publishing experience, The Daily Grace Co. creates Christ-centered resources marked by theological depth, biblical faithfulness, and practical encouragement. We value thoughtful, faithful writers and partner closely from concept development through launch.
