Overview
Professional Publishing Guidance — Every Step of the Way
With over 15 years working in publishing (including at Faber & Faber and other independent presses), I know what it takes to make your book look great and read well, as well as the ins and outs of POD publishing.
Here’s How I Can Help
✅ Creating a beautiful and readable interior design that suits your book’s style
✅ Formatting your book for print and eBook (so it looks perfect on any device)
✅ Helping you choose the right trim size, fonts, and layout for your genre
✅ Offering advice on metadata and categories to help readers find you
✅ Supporting you with uploading your files to places like KDP and IngramSpark
✅ Making sure your interior works smoothly with your cover (I don’t do covers, but I’ll help you get everything lined up)
What to Expect if We Work Together
✅ Friendly and clear communication — I explain every step so you’re never in the dark.
✅ No surprise costs — I include all final tweaks and corrections.
✅ Someone who cares about your book as much as you do, bringing real publishing know-how to your project
Typical pricing for full publishing support starts at $800, depending on project length and complexity.
