Gig Summary
About this gig
Hey there!
If you are an author looking to publish your first book or add to your list of published books, then this is for you...
As an experienced and multi-niched Book Design Expert and Self-Publishing Counsellor, I can tell you that one of the greatest challenges authors face is the daunting task of turning their manuscripts into finished and refined pages, ready to be consumed by the target audience on KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing), Ingramspark, LULU, Barnes and Noble and the rest.
But you do not have to face these challenges alone - that is why I am here.
I offer proven experience spanning several years in book typesetting, Formatting and Layout, Ebook Creating (Fixed and Reflowable), and Book Publishing. My knowledge of pre-press processes and print production has helped several authors get the best out of their drafts.
Whether your draft is ready or still in the works, my multi-niche expertise is all you need to take them to masterpiece status.
I will be here to handle all the details of book design and publishing.

FAQ
What information do I need to provide to start the book design process?
- Please provide a completely edited manuscript in a Word Google document to begin the book design process. - Also, indicate any specific design preferences you would like to have. - State preferred trim size and let me know if you have a special formatting requirement. - Images should be in Hi-Res
How long does the book design process take?
The book design timeline varies based on your manuscript's complexity and number of words. This will be communicated once I review your manuscript.
Can I see samples of your previous work?
Yes, I can provide samples of my previous book design projects upon request.
Do you offer revisions if I am not satisfied with the initial design?
Absolutely. I offer a set number of revisions (typically 3-5 rounds) to ensure you are completely satisfied with the product. Additional revisions can be accommodated at the discussed fee.
What format will I receive my final files in?
You will receive the final files in industry-standard formats. For print books, you will get a high-resolution PDF ready for printing. For e-books, I provide files in EPUB compatible with major e-book platforms. If you need any other specific formats, please let me know.
How do you ensure the quality of the design and layout?
I ensure design quality through detailed initial consultations, I use Adobe InDesign which is the industry standard, offers multiple rounds of proofing and revisions, and a final review and quality check to meet professional standards before delivery.
What if I need additional services like editing?
While my primary focus is on book design, I have a network of professional editors and proofreaders I work with. If you need these services, I can coordinate with these professionals to provide a seamless experience.
