    You’ve just finished your manuscript! Congratulations! Now it’s time to take that manuscript and turn it into a professionally edited, formatted and designed book that you can publish on your favorite platform such as Kindle Direct Publishing or similar. There's many steps involved from proofreading to hitting the "publish" button, and you want your book to be eye-catching, beautifully designed, a joy to read, perfectly formatted and thoroughly proofread and edited so that your book stands out from the crowd. I'm here to help. I'm a book designer and publishing consultant with a passion for helping my clients bring their work to the world. I have many years of experience in: ✔ Writing & Editing ✔ Graphic Design & Creative Direction ✔ Book/eBook Design & Formatting ✔ Online Book Retailing ✔ Project Management ✔ Working with people to bring their vision to reality You've written the book, now let me help you polish, package and publish it! I can get your book beautifully out into the world so that you can focus on your next book instead of babysitting your book through this process. Communication is my jam and your success is my priority. 𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗜 𝗗𝗢: Editing Editing can be anything from finding and removing typos to a full "page one" rewrite, or turning blog posts into a book. It's up to you and what you need in your project! I am a published author myself as well as having years of professional writing and editing experience to contribute to your project. Cover Design An eye-catching cover is a must if you want your book to stand out from the crowd online or on bookstore shelves. As a (former) online bookstore owner, I have seen over the years what grabs people's attention, and as a (former) creative director I know how to capture the feel & voice of your book and convey that on the cover. Interior Design The book needs to look as nice on the inside as the outside, and be a pleasure to read so your readers want to come back for more. Little details make all the difference. Spoiler alert: typos, super tiny margins and crammed pages aren't it! My years of experience with typography and layout will ensure that your book looks beautiful both inside and out. Print Formatting The book is designed, but if it isn't formatted well, it will all fall apart when the book gets printed. I have a degree in Computer Science and extensive experience working with layout programs in addition to my experience formatting books of all types and sizes for print. I have prepped print projects from books to CDs to annual reports to magazines and everything in between. eBook Formatting If you're going to do an electronic version of your book, it will need to be formatted to exact specifications for Kindle or ePUB. My meticulous eye for detail and knowledge of these formats and platforms means that your book will look great and not riddled with weird formatting errors like so many books today. Who I Am: - A professional with years of experience - A great communicator - Detail oriented - Good with people - Funny. (Well, at least my kids think so.) - Committed to excellence A note on excellence. If you want the cheapest provider, I am not the right fit for you. If you want excellence combined with a great communicator and great partner in getting your book into the world, I'm your person. Let’s partner together to take your book from manuscript to reality.

    ***UPDATE: Apologies, but I've taken on a full-time teaching position, so my time to devote to Upwork projects is extremely limited. I will probably not be able to take on Upwork jobs until May or June--keep this in mind if you try to invite me to a job. *** My goal is to help you through any or all stages of book production and design, so you can develop a book you are proud to share with the world. Initially a writer (MFA in creative writing) self-publishing my own work, I later formed a small book press (Left Fork) to help and promote others seeking to get their works published. Through publishing more than 50 books (and designing an additional 100+ for Upwork clients), I have experience in all stages of production, including full interior layout (with InDesign) and cover design (PhotoShop). In addition to design work I am available for consulting. I'm eager to learn what you're hoping to achieve, and to help you find the best solution to making it happen. PLEASE NOTE: I live off-grid in a rural area with no wi-fi at home, but I have an office in the nearest town that I work at on Mondays through Thursdays. My apologies in advance if you contact me Thursday evening or later and I'm unable to reply until Monday morning. “Ryan Forsythe is the consummate book formatter. His broad and seasoned technical and design expertise notwithstanding, he is the dream of a writer who wants to publish his own book and not have it look self-published. Because he is also a writer, Ryan brings additional skills as a copy editor and proofreader with eagle’s eyes for detail down to the last piece of punctuation. If you want to publish a book, Ryan, a pro’s pro, is your go-to guy.” –Howard Sann, Owner of Birdye’s Books & Publisher of Paul Sann’s "Kill the Dutchman!"

    With over a decade of experience in the publishing industry, I’ve worked with indie authors, publishers, entrepreneurs, and creatives, helping them craft clean, professional, and engaging ebooks that are ready for publishing. I've been immersed in the world of ebooks, offering professional editing, meticulous proofreading, expert formatting, and eye-catching cover design. My journey began with a passion for words and storytelling, which evolved into a full-fledged professional pursuit. I believe that every ebook deserves to be presented in its best form, which not only captivates but also connects with readers. My approach combines attention to detail with creativity, ensuring that each ebook meets industry standards and the unique voice of the author. I'm excited about the possibility of working together to bring your vision to life with the following services: ✔ Professional Ebook Editing: Every great book deserves precision and finesse. I will check the structure, tone, and flow of your text, making meticulous edits to enhance clarity and readability. ✔ Expert Proofreading: Typos and grammatical errors can detract from even the most interesting book. I provide thorough proofreading services to eliminate grammar, spelling, punctuation, and consistency errors, ensuring your eBook is polished and professional. ✔ Ebook Formatting: Presentation matters. I will ensure your text is not only visually appealing but also tailored for platforms like Amazon Kindle (KDP) or EPUB. From layout to typography, I handle all aspects of eBook formatting to provide a seamless reading experience. ✔ Custom Ebook Cover Design: They say, “Don’t judge a book by its cover,” but a stunning cover is what makes a reader pick up a book in the first place. Leveraging my design skills, I will create eye-catching, genre-appropriate eBook covers that represent your content and increase your book’s marketability. Genres I Edit/Proofread - Action Adventure - Autobiographies - Business/Entrepreneurship - Children's Books - Coming of Age/Young Adult - Fantasy - Memoirs - Mystery - Personal Development/Self Help - Romance Partnering with authors and publishers, I’ve had the privilege of working across various genres and formats. My aim? To help you captivate your audience with an eBook they can’t put down. I genuinely care about your work, and I understand the details that matter. I'm excited to work with you. If you're ready to get started or have questions, send me a message. Let’s bring your ebook to life and get your readers hooked from the first page!

    I create print-ready custom-designed novels, self-help books, nonfiction titles, memoirs, and other long-format books complete with properly formatted headers and footers, drop caps, automatic tables of contents, foot- and endnotes, and wraparound covers. My ebook files include reflowable text, interactive tables of contents, and hyperlinked endnotes. I guarantee the successful uploading of all of my files onto your POD platform of choice and will be there with you until your book is perfect and published! I only use the gold standard—Adobe InDesign—for all book interior layouts and cover designs. (I do not design books in MS Word, Kindle Create, Atticus, or Vellum, etc.) You’ll need a completed, edited, and proofread manuscript before I start designing, but if your project is still in rough shape (or if you're not sure exactly *what* you need), don't worry—I can evaluate it for you, and can provide editorial services to perfect that manuscript before I start laying out a single page. I am a meticulous editorial designer who has been on both sides of the traditional publishing world—I am the author and photographer of two original needlework project books published by Random House, and I was the in-house production editor for a book publisher in the Pacific Northwest for several years. Currently, I am in the process of writing, photographing, and designing my own cookbook, which I am self-publishing in 2025. I also have an MFA in Creative Writing/Fiction, and I have to confess that novels (and cozy mysteries!) are my first and truest love! If you are an author who needs help making your book dreams a (formatted and finished) reality, please reach out. I'd love to hear about your project and see how I can help you!
