Step 1 Preproduction Strategy Meeting

Before we begin, you’ll meet with one of our publishing coordinators. This meeting is all about your book—your vision, goals, and expectations. We’ll walk you through the publishing process, discuss your editing, layout, cover design, formatting, and distribution options, and create a clear plan to bring your book to life.

Step 2 Edit Your Manuscript

A polished manuscript is key to a professional book. We provide the level of editing that best fits your needs, whether it’s a final proofread or a more in-depth review. Our editors work to enhance the clarity, consistency, and overall readability of your writing while preserving your unique voice.

Step 3 Layout Your Interior

Once editing is complete, we layout your manuscript to industry standards, ensuring a clean, professional layout. If your book requires illustrations, this is when they are created and incorporated. We’ll also handle page numbers, headers, and the placement of images, charts, or tables to ensure your book is visually appealing and easy to read.

Step 4 Design Your Book Cover

Your book cover is the first thing readers will see, and we’ll make sure it stands out. Our award-winning design team will work with you to create a cover that reflects your book’s genre and tone while meeting all industry requirements for print and digital distribution.

Step 5 Final Review & Quality Check

Before publishing, we ensure everything is in place for a professional, polished book. This includes coordinating your interior styles and fonts with your selected cover concept, reviewing your final interior layout, and checking your book for any last-minute errors or inconsistencies.

Step 6 Prepare and Upload Your Files

Once you have reviewed and approved your files, we handle the technical side of preparing and uploading your files on your behalf. We ensure everything meets industry standards and make your book available globally through popular print-on-demand (POD) distributors.
