I have about 125 pages of text and pictures of my father's history, in Publisher, that I need to get made into a book. I'm actually looking for someone to finish putting it all together into a nice format that I'd be able to submit for printing. I'd say 3/4 of it has the pictures in roughly the right place, the last 1/4 is much less finished, and then there are a bunch of newspaper articles that need to be put in at the end, that I haven't even started yet. I know Publisher is a goner, it doesn't need to stay in Publisher. Not a lot of pressure on the timing. Is this the kind of thing you do, or do you know of anyone who does? Thanks!

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/
