I would be reticent, though, to provide too much editing guidance. It ultimately needs to be in the voices of the p-aparents so that there isn't a huge disconnect between thewritten word and the folks in person. That might just lead to disappointments for all involved.


I agree Plareb... but a lot of times p-aparents are not really using their own voice, they are writing in this really passive, wordy style that actually does not reflect them at all.

A good editor would be able to help the p-aparents' voices/meaning come through AND make the writing good.
