This is a link to an article I wrote about why authors should hire a professional book designer and formatter for their books:
Chapter opener designs for classic books:
Book Design and Formatting services include:
• creating a unique and fitting design for your book using the right fonts and graphic elements to showcase your work.
• helping you determine the best size for your book by taking into considering the topic of book, the prospective audience, and other factors, including the desired page count and most readable type size.
• ensuring that your book is properly formatted and adheres to the best practices for typography and layout.
• designing and formatting any charts, graphs, or other elements.
• determining the best placement of photographs and images.
• finessing all page and line endings and breaks.
After all of these years designing and typesetting books for other authors, I’ve written my own book that is now available on Amazon.
The book is titled Staying Freelance and is about the many things I did and experienced to establish and maintain my freelance business over the course of 30-plus years.
I wrote Staying Freelance to inspire and advise fellow freelancers on how to build and maintain their careers for the long-term. My goal is to show people how to “stay” freelance not just “go” freelance.
Staying Freelance is available on Amazon.
