⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Abdul truly is an Amazon KDP expert… exceptional work, fully supported with step-by-step instructions." — Kevin E., Director of Product Marketing
🏆 Top Rated on Upwork · $60K+ earned · 1,800+ hours

📖 Your Manuscript Is Done — Now Don’t Let the Files Sink It
Most books don’t stall because the writing is weak. They stall on the technical last mile: rejected files, broken EPUBs, poor interiors, or the wrong KDP/IngramSpark setup.
That is where I help.
I turn finished manuscripts into clean, professional, upload-ready books for KDP, IngramSpark, Apple Books, Kobo, Barnes & Noble Press, and Google Play Books, covering Kindle, paperback, and hardcover, with the files, setup, and QA handled correctly before launch.
👋 Who You’re Working With
I'm Abdul — and for 280+ books, my job has been the same: make the technical side disappear so the author can focus on the book.
I specialize in book formatting, EPUB preparation, KDP publishing, and IngramSpark setup. I scope the project, do the work, and check every file before it reaches you. From first message to final handover, you work with me.
From your first message, you'll know the scope, the timeline, and exactly what you'll receive. No guesswork. No chasing. No launch-day surprises.
🎯 What I Specialize In
📘 Book Formatting: built to pass the first time
▸ Kindle (reflowable EPUB) & fixed-layout formatting
▸ Paperback & hardcover interiors, print-ready PDFs
▸ Complex interiors: tables, workbooks & program guides
▸ Illustrated books, QR codes & exercise pages: the layouts most formatters quietly avoid
🌍 KDP & IngramSpark Publishing Setup
▸ ISBN, trim size & binding configuration
▸ Metadata, keywords & category setup
▸ Pricing, territories & distribution set up correctly so your book isn't stuck on one platform
▸ Wide distribution ready: files prepared to spec for Apple Books, Kobo, B&N Press & Google Play
🧭 Launch Readiness & QA
▸ Pre-upload file checks & platform validation
▸ Preview review & correction notes
▸ Organized handover so problems are caught before they cost you time, reviews, or momentum
🎁 What You Walk Away With
→ Upload-ready files for Kindle, paperback, hardcover, KDP and/or IngramSpark
→ A professional interior that meets platform requirements
→ Publishing setup configured correctly
→ QA review and organized final handover
→ Confidence that the technical side is handled before launch
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Verified Upwork Client Review
“Abdul formatted a three-book non-fiction series across reflowable EPUB, paperback, and hardcover, all in InDesign. It was a demanding project with complex tables, strict typography standards, and detailed revisions. Final files passed independent EPUBCheck validation with zero errors and met all print specifications. Responsive, reliable, and someone we would gladly hire again.” — Framework Publishing Group
🔁 Once Your Files Are Ready, I Handle Everything After
• Covers and print wraps that win the click
• Amazon A+ Content that turns browsers into buyers
• Metadata and listing optimization that keeps the book findable
• PPC setup with a compliant foundation before you spend
• Backlist maintenance that keeps your catalog working
One desk, from manuscript to a listing that stays sharp.

I help authors turn ideas, rough drafts, and finished manuscripts into professionally written, edited, designed, formatted, and publishing-ready books for Amazon KDP and IngramSpark.
With 7+ years of experience in ghostwriting, book formatting, editing, cover design, children’s book production, and self-publishing support, I understand the full journey from concept to published book.
I work with authors across fiction, nonfiction, memoirs, romance, self-help, business books, children’s books, coloring books, activity books, workbooks, eBooks, paperbacks, and hardcovers.
My core services include:
• Ghostwriting for fiction, nonfiction, memoirs, romance, self-help, and children’s books
• Amazon KDP paperback, hardcover, and Kindle formatting
• IngramSpark-ready interior and cover file preparation
• Book editing, proofreading, and manuscript cleanup
• Children’s book illustration and character consistency
• Front cover, back cover, and spine design
• Coloring book, workbook, and activity book formatting
• Book description, keywords, categories, and upload guidance
• Final publishing QA before launch
What makes my work valuable is that I understand the complete publishing process, not just one part of it.
A strong book needs more than good writing. It needs clear structure, clean editing, professional formatting, readable typography, correct margins, proper bleed, a strong cover, and final files that meet publishing platform requirements.
For ghostwriting, I focus on voice, structure, pacing, emotional flow, chapter development, and reader engagement.
For children’s books, I focus on visual consistency, character appearance, page flow, illustration quality, text placement, and print-ready setup.
For KDP and IngramSpark projects, I focus on technical accuracy, professional layout, cover dimensions, file quality, and upload-ready delivery.
I can help if you need:
• A book written from your idea
• A manuscript edited or proofread
• A children’s book illustrated and formatted
• A book formatted for KDP or IngramSpark
• A cover wrap designed correctly
• A Kindle/eBook version created
• A workbook or coloring book prepared for publishing
• A complete start-to-finish book production partner
My goal is simple: to make your book look professional, read smoothly, and meet publishing platform requirements before it goes live.
If you want your book handled carefully, clearly, and professionally, I’d be happy to help bring it to the finish line.

You've written something worth reading — now let's make sure the world can't put it down.
With nearly a decade of experience editing and publishing books on Amazon KDP, I know what it takes to turn a raw manuscript into a book readers love — and authors are proud of.
I'm a professional book editor, writer, and KDP publishing specialist helping fiction and non-fiction authors at every stage of their publishing journey. Whether you're a first-time self-publisher nervous about your debut or an experienced indie author preparing your next release, I bring the same sharp eye and genuine care to every project.
☑️EDITING
My areas of expertise include:
✔️ Non-Fiction: Memoir, self-help, business books, and personal development
✔️ Fiction: Literary fiction, commercial fiction, and genre fiction
✔️ Romance & Women's Fiction: From sweet romance to emotionally complex women's stories
I don't just fix grammar — I work with your voice, not against it.
- My line editing sharpens your prose while keeping your unique style intact
- My developmental feedback helps you see the bigger picture: structure, pacing, character arc, and reader experience
- My copy editing ensures your final manuscript is clean, consistent, and publication-ready
☑️WRITING & GHOSTWRITING
Need your story written from scratch? I ghostwrite memoirs, self-help books, and non-fiction titles that sound authentically like you. I also write planner content, workbooks, and KDP low-content and medium-content books — from concept to complete manuscript.
☑️BETA READING
Before your manuscript goes to final edit or publication, a fresh set of informed eyes can make all the difference. I provide detailed beta reading feedback covering plot, pacing, character believability, emotional impact, and overall reader experience — so you know exactly what's working and what needs attention before it's too late to fix.
☑️KDP FORMATTING & PUBLISHING
I format manuscripts to Amazon KDP's exact print and digital specifications — interior layout, font styling, chapter headers, margins, and everything in between. Once formatted, I handle the full KDP upload and publishing process so your book goes live without the technical headache.
☑️FULL PRODUCTION PACKAGE
Want everything handled in one place? I offer a complete book production service covering editing, ghostwriting, interior formatting, cover design for both print and digital, and publishing to Amazon KDP. You hand me your idea or rough manuscript — I deliver a published book.
When you work with me, you get:
✅ Thorough, thoughtful work with clear communication throughout
✅ Respect for your voice and vision
✅ Timely delivery and genuine investment in your book's success
✅ One reliable professional for every stage of your publishing journey
If you're ready to get started — or not sure where to begin — send me a message.
I'm happy to review a sample or discuss your project before we commit to anything.
