Coverfrom £250
We all judge a book by its cover so it pays to get this right. Our designer will work with you to create a beautiful jacket for your book — front, spine, back and e-book cover. |
Typesettingfrom £3 per page
How a book looks inside — the font style and size, format and the way the words flow across the page — should reflect the quality of the content. Our end-to-end design service includes typesetting, creation of the title page, artwork (if appropriate) and conversion to a high resolution print-ready PDF. |
e-Bookfrom £200
We will create a digital edition of your book for publication on Amazon amd other e-book retailers (including Nook from Barnes and Noble, Kobo and Apple Books). |
Self-publishingfrom £250
If you prefer to self-publish and receive all net royalties, you give us your internals file, cover art (front, back and spine) and Kindle file and we'll set up and distribute your book through Amazon's KDP platform. If you need help with the design and conversion of your book, check out our design offer.
