Amazon KDP Workbook & Journal Designer (Self-Help / Personal Development)

Amazon KDP Workbook & Journal Designer (Self-Help / Personal Development) I'm looking for a talented and creative designer to help bring my first Amazon KDP companion workbook and journal to life. This is the first of what I hope will become a long-term partnership, as I have several self-help books, companion workbooks, journals, planners, and digital products planned over the coming years. About the Project I have written the content for a guided self-help workbook that accompanies a personal development book. My focus is now on finding an experienced designer who can transform the manuscript into a premium-quality workbook that readers will genuinely enjoy using. This is not a low-content journal or simple text layout. I want the workbook to be visually engaging, thoughtfully designed, and highly interactive, encouraging readers to reflect, write, complete exercises, and return to it regularly. Scope of Work The successful freelancer will: Professionally format the workbook for Amazon KDP (paperback) Create a clean, modern, premium-quality interior layout Design engaging pages for reflection exercises, guided journaling, checklists, action plans, habit trackers, goal-setting activities, and worksheets Incorporate tasteful design elements, icons, graphics, section dividers, and visual features that enhance the reader experience without distracting from the content Create a consistent visual style throughout the workbook Prepare a print-ready PDF that meets Amazon KDP specifications Provide the editable source files upon completion Design Style I'm looking for a workbook that feels: Premium and professionally published Modern and elegant Inspirational and uplifting Warm, welcoming, and engaging Clean and easy to navigate Interactive and enjoyable to complete Rather than simply formatting text, I'd like the workbook to feel like a high-quality guided experience that readers will want to keep and revisit.

I am looking for a designer who can help establish a consistent visual identity across future books, workbooks, journals, planners, and digital products. I'm seeking someone who is creative, detail-oriented, and willing to contribute ideas—not simply format pages. If you enjoy creating beautiful, engaging products that inspire readers, I'd love to hear from you.
