Written analysis

If your manuscript needs structural and/or organizational analysis, we will offer specific suggestions. 

Developmental editing

We will discuss the results of the written analysis and, if you accept our suggestions, we will incorporate them as well as any suggestions you may have.

Copyediting

Once your manuscript is organized and in the proper sequence, we will be ready to copyedit it.

Graphics assistance

We can recommend an illustrator or a technical drawing professional or prepare your existing images for the printing vendor.

Interior page design

We will work collaboratively to achieve the look and feel you want for the interior pages of your book.

Indexing and cross-referencing

We offer several types of indexes and lists to make your book more user friendly.

Cover design

It is always helpful if you have ideas about your cover; if you don’t, we can design it for you.

Proofreading

After your book has been designed and typeset, we will either reread or scan all of the pages as a final quality check.

Project management

We will help you choose offset or one-at-a-time printing (called “print on demand”) and help you select a printing vendor.

Publishing assistance

We provide e-book and PDF formatting services for your independently published book. 

Marketing and sales

If you plan to publish your book independently and need help with marketing and sales, we will refer you to a highly respected colleague who can help you.

Training

If you wish, we will train you in any or all aspects of the book-making process if you want to do the work yourself.
