No matter where you are in the publishing process, we’re here to help. 

Yes. You will retain all of the rights to your manuscript and book, including all digital and print rights..

Yes, and you will own your final files and can upload to any printer or distributer you choose, including Amazon/KDP.

This is not a problem! Most of our clients work and live elsewhere. Email and phone work well for basic communications, and viewing book cover designs, page layouts, and other proofs online is super easy. 

Yes, and at no extra charge.

If the estimate for your project looks agreeable, you will be sent a copy of it to sign and return. This will serve as our master service agreement. Payment terms are typically 50% down to start, with the remaining balance due at the end of the project. Payments can be sent by check, direct bank deposit, and credit card (with an added 3% surcharge).

This is dependent on which service(s) you have signed up for. Typically, any project including book cover design, page design, typesetting, proofreading, edits, and eBook formatting will likely take at least 2-3 months or more. Please ask if you have a specific deadline and we will try to accommodate.

For the designing and formatting of the interior of your book, this process is done in two steps. First is the page design process, which is where we set up the overall look of the interior of your book. This involves everything from setting up the trim size and margins, selecting the best font (and font size) for your body text, as well as establishing a look and design for every element in your manuscript needing a design touch. These elements could include chapter numbers and titles, various lists, photos or other graphics, image captions, tables, charts, pull quotes, sidebars, and so on. There will be a review process to look over all these elements to get your feedback and approval before we move along to the next step, which is the typesetting stage. During this process we will take your final, approved page design template and format (or typeset) your book, page-by-page, start to finish, providing a first, typeset proof of your book for review, which will look exactly like how your book will end up on the printed page. Our typesetting process also includes some time for implementing edits and changes you mark up for us into your book pages, and ultimately providing a print-ready file for your printer at the end of this process.

A form will be provided for you to fill out before getting started on the design process. This is where you can relay your ideas and inspiration before we get the design process underway.

Yes, no problem. We can take your finished front cover and assemble the back cover and spine, add the barcode, and be sure everything is set up to the specifications required from your printer.

While we do alert you of any typos, incorrect punctuation, formatting inconsistencies, and other errors we encounter along the way, do not rely on us as your editorial professionals. You will need a skilled editor to perform this task.

We can supply a template for your copyright page, which you can use to fill in any info you would like to include in the front of your book. This is where you will include your ISBN number(s) and Library of Congress Control Number, as well as contact and ordering information.

An ISBN, or International Standard Book Number, is a series of numbers that is created and assigned to each format of a book, which the publishing industry uses to track sales around the world. You can go to myidentifiers.com to purchase yours. If you are producing a print book as well as an eBook, you will need to purchase a separate ISBN for each "format." We are happy to assist with this process as an add-on service for your project.

No need to buy your barcode online. We can supply one free of charge using your ISBN and retail price.

To register your book with the Library of Congress, visit loc.gov/publish. We are happy to assist with this process as an add-on service for your project.
