Regal Books has appointed author Julie Carobini as senior production coordinator, effective immediately.

The author of five novels, Carobini is a two-time American Christian Fiction Writers (ACFW) Carol Award finalist and a freelance editor for B&H Publishing Group and Salem Communications. Prior to accepting her new position, she served in the national programming and ministry relations department for Salem Communications.

"For years I've been a reader, writer and freelance editor of works that highlight God's grace," she said. "I'm excited to now be a part of the Regal team, learning what it means to shepherd books through the production process. I love Regal Books' commitment to releasing products that reach out to a hurting world with God's Word and His unmatched, abiding love."

Carobini is also a member of ACFW, The Christian PEN (Proofreaders and Editors' Network) and a former board member of the Christian Authors Network.
