Publishers who see a significant amount of interest are more likely to want to contract with me to sell.
When will I be able to buy a copy of My Papouli and His Irene?
How long do you expect it to take to get My Papouli and His Irene published?

I met Cheli Vance with Sunshine Editing through a mutual friend, and she was a joy to work with! After teaching English at Mississippi College for years, Cheli left that position to pursue a certificate in editing and publishing from UCLA. A born educator, she taught me SO MUCH. Her goal was to make my writing shine by applying her eye for detail and her professional expertise to my manuscript, all while maintaining my voice. Her suggestions and comments were not her opinions–rather, she would reference Chicago Manual of Style or another standard source.
