KRISTINA EDSTROM
Publishing Consultant
Kristina is a graphic designer with a passion for every pixel. She brings her experience, intuition, and detail into every project for the authors and team at GracePoint. Her greatest joy is being a part of the process of helping an author's dream of writing and publishing a book come true. Kristina goes the extra step, reading parts of the manuscript or combing through files to get a real feel for what the author might want, and then she brings it to life with a unique cover. In her spare time, she enjoys learning more tricks in Photoshop, or being with her husband and three kids, her 168-pound dog Stewart, two cats, and her tortoise named Harold. She also puts forth great effort into trying not to eat the sweets her husband likes to bake.

DIANE WOOD
Publishing Consultant
Diane is an avid reader and grew up in a home in which the unabridged dictionary was frequently consulted. She reviews manuscripts with an eye toward their readability, flow, and continuity. One of the joys of her work with GracePoint is the many different manuscript topics.
When she is not reading, she enjoys watching birds at the feeder and spending time with her dog, Jazz and her cats, Gracie and Doc. Diane is a student of the Enneagram and a Veriditas Certified Advanced Labyrinth Facilitator, and she enjoys introducing these topics to others. She has been a member of the Million Dollar Band, dietitian, pastor, chaplain, gestational surrogate, cat foster, and a court-appointed juvenile advocate.
