From Manuscript to Marketplace:

Professional Book Publishing Made Simple

I manage every step of the publishing process so you end up with a finished, professional book—without the stress or confusion of doing it yourself.

Once your manuscript is complete, there’s still a long list of steps between “finished draft” and a book you can hold in your hands.

These include interior layout, cover design, ISBN registration, final editing, formatting, and compliance.

Most authors stall at this stage because they don’t know where to start. That’s why I offer full project management for the publishing process. I handle every step and coordinate all the moving parts so you don’t have to.

The result: a finished, professional book that’s ready for sale and distribution.

What I Handle For You

When you hire me to manage your publishing, I take your completed manuscript and oversee everything needed to turn it into a beautiful, market-ready book.

Copyediting and Proofreading

A final quality review handled by a professional editor.

Professional Cover Design

Front, spine, and back, created by designer who specialize in nonfiction publishing.

Interior Layout and Formatting

Clean, readable typesetting for both print and ebook versions.

Design and Layout Coordination

All back-and-forth revisions managed for you until the files are perfect.

ISBN Registration and Metadata

Ensuring your book is fully compliant and trackable through all major retailers.

Printing Options and Guidance

I connect you with trusted printers and help you choose what fits your goals and budget.

Throughout the process, I’m your single point of contact. You don’t have to juggle designers, editors, or technical details. I manage it all until the finished files are delivered to you.

The Value of Full-Service Publishing

Managing publishing on your own can take months, dozens of emails, and costly trial and error.

When I handle the process, you save time, avoid mistakes, and end up with a professional product that represents your brand the right way.

You’ll finish with a final book that:

Looks and feels professional.

Meets all industry standards.

Is ready for print or digital distribution.

Reflects the same quality as the message inside.

How It Works

Step 1:

You deliver your completed manuscript (from my ghostwriting service or your own draft).

Step 2:

I hire and manage the right professionals—designers, editors, and formatters—from my trusted network.

Step 3:

You review final proofs and approve them for publication.

Add-On Investment

Publishing management is an optional add-on service for ghostwriting and editing clients. The fee for full-service project management is $7,500, plus printing costs paid directly to the printer.
