BOOK DESIGN

with Author Cultivation

THE PROCESS

1.

Consultation

Our journey begins with a comprehensive discussion, ​including your book's genre, target audience, and your ​personal design preferences. This is where we ​establish the creative direction for your project. I then ​create a proposal for you, and, once your non-​refundable down payment is paid, I begin work.

2.

Concept ​Development

Drawing upon my expertise and knowledge of the ​industry, I'll create initial design concepts and share ​them with you. Your feedback and input are essential ​during this stage, allowing us to refine the direction ​and bring your vision to life.

3.

Corrections

& Re​finement

Working off proof copies (both digital and print), we'll ​work together to ensure your book meets production ​standards and is to your satisfaction. There are always ​corrections to be made in this stage, so don’t be ​discouraged if it takes a few go-rounds to get it just ​right!

4.

Finalization

& Production

Once we've refined the design to your satisfaction, I’ll ​prepare a package of the agreed-upon files for you, ​including the remainder of your invoice. Once the ​invoice is paid in full, I’ll release the files to you.

SERVICE LEVELS

Collaboration

Service

For authors who prefer a more hands-off ​approach, you can trust us to execute the ​design based on our extensive ​experience. We'll still ensure your vision is ​respected, but you can focus on other ​aspects of your book's publication.

FINALIZATION

Once we've refined the design to your satisfaction, I’ll prepare a ​package of the agreed-upon files for you, including the remainder of ​your invoice. When the invoice is paid in full, I’ll release the files to ​you.
