So many students, professionals, and aspiring writers harbor hopes of one day publishing a book. Whether you are writing for a conventional academic audience or the broader public, we would be honored to help you make that dream a reality!

Once we’ve converted your dissertation to a manuscript, we will use our comprehensive typesetting and book-cover design services to make your research appealing to potential customers.
Our book interiors and covers are designed and created using professional publishing industry standard programs for precise layout and formatting (Adobe InDesign, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe Illustrator).
Our use of unique reader-friendly fonts also adds to the professional appearance of your book interior.
We offer multiple levels of production specifications to individualize your book’s content, including Combination Packages and Extra Services. See the full range of options below.

Pricing below is for books up to 60,000 words in length. For all interior-design levels, add $100 for every 5,000 words over 60,000 words.
$50 will also be added to all orders for a 30-minute consultation with your project manager once your order is underway to help you to fill out our Self-Publishing Intake form that is required to begin the design process for your book interior and cover.
Completed book and cover files are delivered to our clients ready for uploading and acceptance on Amazon/KDP,IngramSpark, and other Print-on-Demand retailers.
For an additional fee of $250, we can create your Amazon/KDP account and upload your book files for you (rising to $275 or $300 if you need to upload two or three books, respectively).
