As book designers, our job is to transform your words and ideas into a professional, visually compelling book that speaks your truth and draws in readers. Hand-crafted and unique, your design will reflect your story, your voice, and your vision. Through our collaborative process, we work closely with you to ensure the result is a book you love—one you’ll be proud to share with the world.

A successful book cover does more than look beautiful—it compels action. The front cover hooks attention, the back cover seals the deal, and together they persuade a reader to say “yes.”
Our cover design process is unique because it’s built around you. We believe the best design doesn’t drown out the author’s voice, but instead, elevates it. Through an in-depth, collaborative process, we translate your vision into a cover that is both strategically effective and authentically yours.
We start off with a Zoom call so we can get to know you and your book. (And you can get to know us too!) This call takes about 30 minutes and is scheduled at your convenience.
It’s go time! We’ll research other books in your genre and category, combine that with the ideas generated in our Zoom call, and begin to work on your cover design.
In 2-3 weeks, depending on our schedule, you’ll receive the first round of cover concepts.
After you’ve reviewed the initial concepts, we schedule a Zoom call to go over the designs. This is the interactive part! During the call, we make changes together in real time, or we discuss changes we will make offline.
We’re done tweaking the cover, and you have a final design you love! From there, if we’re working with you for just your cover, we’ll work on the back cover and spine and create final files for upload.
If we’re handling your interior book design, we’ll get started on that and then work on the back cover and spine later in the process.
A well-designed interior makes reading effortless, allowing your story to shine without distractions.
We approach interiors as both art and craft. Every design choice, from typeface to spacing, is made with readability and aesthetics in mind, ensuring your book feels as professional inside as it does on the outside. The result is a seamless continuation of the promise your cover makes to the reader.
Our interior design process is interactive and collaborative, giving you confidence that your book is not only beautifully designed but also honors your writing at every turn.
When we’re ready to start your interior, we kick it off with a Zoom where we review your manuscript and ask questions about your vision for the design.
We create the entire interior design, including body typeface selection, chapter start pages, subheads, header, footer, page numbers, and all other relevant elements in your manuscript, and send you a first draft.
We schedule a Zoom call to go over the designs. This is the interactive part. Together, we make final decisions on typefaces, layout, headers, footers, and other elements, all on Zoom in real time.
Our interior design process has been honed and allows for easy changes to any element in the interior with only a few mouse clicks.
We now complete the interior layout by manually correcting and fixing spacing issues, such as widows and orphans, page by page. Then, you do a final proof of the completed book layout. At this stage, you are making small changes to the content, if any, and proofing for any design/layout mistakes. After all final changes are made, a print-ready PDF is provided.
An eBook is an essential component of your publishing plan. Since many eBook readers do not read paperbacks, having an eBook version of your book will help you to capture some of the Reader audience.
Using the interior design file as the starting point, we format your eBook to the latest industry standards including adding a table of contents (if not already present), formatting images, headings, footnotes/endnotes, chapter starts, and hyperlinks for the best eBook reading experience. Then, we create an epub 3.0 file which can be uploaded to any eBook distribution platform, including KDP, Kobo and Draft2Digital.
