My friend and I produced 2 novelty books which were successfully published to KDP and IngramSpark. The publishing company vanished and they had used free ISBN numbers which expired and we lost our listing on IngramSpark. Barnes & Noble wants to place the books in store in Boulder, CO and I cannot get the books uploaded again as I am struggling with the technical formatting! I have purchased new ISBN numbers for both books and need help updating that information inside and on the back cover, including the barcodes. I have the Word versions, pdf versions, and the covers but not in the exact right formats to be accepted to IngramSpark. I need someone to walk me through or take over to complete the final assets for submission to ensure the files are accepted and available again. I'd prefer to pay an intermediate/expert to do the work on our behalf. Both books are shown here: https://www.enhanceitbylisa.com/
