Though these services are paid by the author, you will find a hassle-free and timely environment to meet your expectations. You retain all rights to publication.

We can provide these services on either print or ebook versions! Nonetheless, if the author desires to do some of the work themselves, such as full editing, they can tailor the selected services to their needs.

Using Indesign publishing software, we can prepare a print-ready interior and cover for your use in self-publishing your book that will sparkle and have a professional look. Your input to the look of the interior will be taken before formatting starts.
