I've formatted and published 226 books on Upwork (𝟵𝟲% 𝗝𝗼𝗯 𝗦𝘂𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀, 𝟰.𝟴★ 𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝟭𝟰𝟯 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄𝘀), working across every major platform like Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Lulu, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, and Draft2Digital. So however you're publishing, I can deliver files that go through the first time.
W̲h̲a̲t̲ ̲I̲ ̲h̲a̲n̲d̲l̲e̲:̲
➜ Interior formatting for paperback, hardcover, and eBook (Word, InDesign, EPUB)
➜ Front and back book cover design, sized correctly for your chosen platform
➜ Children's book illustration and layout
➜ KDP/IngramSpark upload and technical troubleshooting (fonts, bleed, trim, margins)
➜ Table of contents, chapter styling, front/back matter
One client recently put it this way:
"𝘏𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘭𝘺 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘨𝘦𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘶𝘤𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘧𝘶𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘥𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘮𝘺 𝘣𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘴... 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘰𝘱𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘮𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘣𝘢𝘤𝘬 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘨𝘢𝘪𝘯 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘭 𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥𝘦𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘣𝘦𝘴𝘵."
That's how I work on every project. You're not locked into the first draft.
I work in milestones so you always know what's next:
𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘴𝘤𝘳𝘪𝘱𝘵 𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘦𝘸 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘲𝘶𝘰𝘵𝘦 → 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘧𝘵 → 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘪𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘴 → 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘱𝘶𝘣𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥𝘺 𝘧𝘪𝘭𝘦𝘴.
Most projects turn around in 3 – 7 days depending on length and platform.
Not sure what your manuscript needs yet? I offer a paid 30-minute consultation. I'll review your file and tell you exactly what it needs and what it'll cost, no obligation.
Send me your manuscript details (word count, trim size, target platform) and I'll reply with a scoped quote within a few hours.
