Editorial Services
turning your manuscripts in to printed books and e-books
Editorial services (manuscript preparation) that we provide cover all aspects of the book creation process to get your words, thoughts and ideas to the stage of print-ready proof or e-book. We work with authors, writers, independent publishers throughout the pre-printing and/or e-book conversion process to transform your manuscript into a quality book.
Our abiding aim is to create a finished product that does justice to your literary output and efforts: something that anyone would be proud to have on their bookshelf, coffee table, kindle device or other e-reader; one that you can confidently present to the book-buying public and will not feel let down or held back when it comes to the marketing and selling aspect of the publishing process.

- Our professional designers and typesetters will prepare the manuscript for print and/or e-book conversion
- We offer affordable cover design options that can be template-based or bespoke and designed with both print and digital media in mind
