I work with authors and publishers to design and format books for print as well as e-books. I specialize in book interiors but also work on covers.
I’m available to work on just about any type of book, from those that are mostly text to more complicated books with photographs, tables, and other elements.
My fees for book design and formatting are based on the length and complexity of the book, ranging from $2.00 to $8.00 per page for most books. I charge in the range of $350.00 to $500.00 for most book covers, and $100.00 to $300.00 for most e-books.
I’ll do my best to bring creativity, accuracy, and the basics of great book design and readability to your books!

THE PROCESS
I typically send three design samples with different fonts and graphic elements to get started, and then make changes or fixes until the design is finalized.
Once the design is finalized, I begin on the layout of the complete book. I usually need about 5-7 days to layout the complete. I’ll send you a PDF of the complete book to review, and finalize the book with any text revisions.
Once everything is finalized for the print book, I’ll send final PDFs for printing of the interior pages and/or cover if I am working on that. I typically send the e-book version of the book within 1 to 2 days of finalizing the print book.
There are some of my chapter opener designs for classic books:
