Taryn Nergaard

Taryn Nergaard – Designer

Internal book designer (paperback and ebook) with 5 years of experience who loves to design beautiful books that make your message shine! ✨

Overview

First and foremost, I'm a writer; and it is my love for my fellow writers that started my journey of freelancing. Since 2018, I've been helping writers with websites, graphic design, book covers and formatting, email marketing services, and anything else my community needed help with.

While I love being a "jack of all trades" who can solve all the problems for my fellow writers, I quickly discovered a passion for helping writers self-publish their books. There's no greater feeling than hearing from an author who is writing book #2 because I helped make their first publishing experience stress-free and enjoyable.

As I've continued to lean into this passion, I found that my absolute favourite part of the publishing process is designing and formatting the interior of a book. Choosing the right fonts, adding creative elements, and fine-tuning all the typography is the kind of work I enjoy doing (even after a full day of being a mom of 4 and university student). Formatting requires an attention to detail that my brain loves!

We know how important a great cover design is, but I love being able to create an interior that makes the whole book feel cohesive and enhances the author's message.

With dozens of books under my belt, I have the expertise and experience to produce a beautiful, high-quality interior that your readers (and you!) will love!
