Overview
I've written, designed and illustrated six of my own non-fiction books that have sold 500,000+ copies worldwide and been translated into over 20 languages. I know the whole process of getting a book out into the world, from concept right through to sales.
I'm trained in graphic design, typography and visual communication, and have been working with publishers and authors specifically for the last 15 years.
I love to bring a book's unique personality to life through its design, and above all I aim to produce books that appeal to their audience. I specialise in hand-drawn lettering, and love to add lettering and illustrative elements to books / covers when they call for it.
I can help at any part of the book creation process, some specific services I offer are:
- Cover design
- Interior design and layout
- Type-setting novels
- Hand-drawn lettering / illustration
- Social media and marketing assets
- Help with blurbs, subtitles, etc
I'm a keen reader myself, and spend a lot of time flicking through books and looking at covers. I'm easy-going and professional, and would love to chat about bringing your book to life if I seem like a good fit.
