Professional editing and design focuses your project on the right path ensuring that nothing distracts readers from your message.

Editing
I am your partner in polishing your manuscript in preparation for publication.
Copyediting includes checking for grammar, usage, spelling, punctuation, and other mechanics of style. I will provide you with a Microsoft Word manuscript with tracked changes and a style sheet containing notes and style decisions used for the review.
Proofreading is the final step before your manuscript goes to publication and includes a review for typos and page layout formatting to ensure things are spot on.

Cover Design
The cover captures the essence of what’s inside and is the first step in getting interest for your product.
I can design a custom cover aligned to your vision whether it leans more typographical or an in-depth visual design. This cover design can be used for softcover, hardcover, ebook, and promotional materials.

Format & Design
Interior formatting makes your book look polished. You want to ensure your product is just as beautiful and professional as any traditionally-published book on the shelf.
We’ll determine a design that aligns to the story and applicable branding. This includes choices for typography, page layout, front and back matter, headers, etc.
I format documents using Adobe InDesign for a professional outcome.

Illustrations & Images
I can create custom illustrations for your project. See some of my Procreate work in the Illustration Gallery.
If you have images for your project, I can edit them if needed (enhancing, cropping to fit, etc.). If you need help obtaining images, I can direct you on that as well.
