Job Description

Contract Writer Needed We are seeking a contract writer to develop and write a Christ-centered book focused on helping women overcome people-pleasing. This project will help women unmask the root causes of approval-seeking behaviors, dismantle the fear of man, and live in the genuine freedom of a heart captivated by the fear of God. We are open to different conceptual directions for this resource, including: A foundational, theological exploration of the "fear of man" vs. the "fear of God." This book would dive deep into theology to uncover how a woman's craving for human approval is ultimately a worship issue. It would offer a robust, gospel-centered framework for understanding our identity in Christ, freeing women from the exhausting, performance-driven cycle of earning love and acceptance. A vulnerable, narrative-driven book that uses powerful personal storytelling, memoir-style reflection, and relatable lived experiences to expose the daily, heavy toll of people-pleasing. The author will walk readers through her own struggles with boundary-setting, overcommitment, and the fear of rejection—whether in friendships, marriage, ministry, or family dynamics—while highlighting the liberating grace of Jesus. The ideal project will combine deep empathy and cultural relevance with rich biblical truth, moving past shallow "assertiveness training" to point women to the ultimate security found in Christ alone. 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. Our goal is not simply to publish books—but to serve readers with resources that meet real needs and help them treasure Christ. Proposal Requirements Important: Proposals that do not include all required components listed below cannot be reviewed. AI Use: We strongly discourage the use of generative AI in book proposals, and we will not move forward with a book proposal if generative AI is used to generate or refine sample chapters. Please submit all materials in a single PDF (not a Word Doc or Google Doc) that includes: Title and Subtitle Controlling Idea (1–2 sentences) One-Paragraph Summary Provide a concise overview of the book's purpose, scope, structure, and tone. Target Audience Description (One of the Most Important Sections) Who this book is specifically for Their stage or season of life The particular struggles, questions, or longings they are experiencing Why this book matters to them now Tip: Specificity is essential. Broad descriptions such as "Christian women" or "believers" are not sufficient. Comparable Titles (2–3 from the Past 5 Years) Identify 2–3 comparable books published within the last five years and explain: How your book overlaps with each one How it is meaningfully distinct in approach, audience, tone, or theological emphasis Author Bio Explain what uniquely qualifies you to write this book, including: Education Ministry, counseling, academic, or professional experience Subject-matter expertise Lived experience relevant to the topic (if appropriate) Previous publishing or writing experience Detailed Chapter Outline Provide a working table of contents that includes: Chapter titles The main idea of each chapter and how it supports the controlling idea of the book Front and Back Matter (Optional) Describe any supplemental materials (e.g., photography, illustrations, reflection questions, discussion guides, recommended resources, liturgies, appendices, etc.).
