BOOK COVERS / INTERIORS / EBOOKS / I help authors create books that stand out in the marketplace and look as amazing as their work deserves.
Why hire me though?
Well, I have more than 20+ years of experience in the publishing industry, designing hundreds of books for well-know authors such as Tony Evans, John MacArthur, and Josh McDowell.
I’ve designed autobiographies for high-profile athletes like Zach Ertz, Julie Ertz, Shaun Alexander, and Ryan Hall.
I've formatted 600+ page, full-color, illustrated, college text books with captions, notes, appendices, etc.
I've helped create books in all genres: fiction, non-fiction, cookbooks, children's, graphic novels, etc.
I've even written four books myself (3 of which are self-published), so I understand the publishing process from an authors point-of-view as well.
On top of all that, I live in a small town with a lower cost of living that is reflected in my extremely reasonable rates.
All that combined means I can offer you big-city publishing house quality & experience, at small-town prices.
