For writers with a manuscript that is completed and proofed, but requires: designing, sizing, illustrations, charts, indexing, or any additional content - I'm happy to provide an estimate based on your unique project. Assume a starting project budget of $5,000+.
Final files, camera ready for your specific print job, using Amazon's KDP cover calculator, or your printer specs for binding. Final files for EPUBS sized to vendor specs. Estimate: $500-1,200.
