Self-Publishing Services
Pick only the services you need. We don’t sell packages, so you’re never paying for help your book doesn’t require.
Editing & Proofreading
A clean, polished manuscript that reads the way you intended.
We offer two tiers of editorial help; choose the one your book needs:
- Editing: the fuller pass, a close read for spelling, grammar, punctuation, consistency, clarity, and style.
- Proofreading: the lighter pass, a final sweep for typos and stray errors before you publish.
Both start with a free sample from a passage of your own book, so you can see the work first.
Print formatting
A paperback or hardback interior that looks like it came from a traditional publisher.
A custom design for your book and genre, built in InDesign to your printer’s specifications so it uploads cleanly.
- A print-ready interior PDF for your chosen trim size.
- Professional typesetting of text, images, tables, boxes, quotes, page headers and numbers, and front and back matter.
Up to two rounds of changes, you pay only when you’re satisfied, and you own all the files.
Ebook conversion
An ebook that reads perfectly on any device, at whatever font size your reader chooses.
We convert your manuscript or print files into a reflowable EPUB, the format that reshapes text to fit phones, tablets, and e-readers, and we test it on real apps and devices before you upload.
- A validated EPUB that passes retailer checks.
- A linked, navigable contents list, with formatting, images, and notes preserved.
- Checked on real devices, not auto-generated.
Up to two rounds of changes, and you pay only when you’re satisfied.
Cover design
A cover that sells your book at thumbnail size and signals its genre at a glance.
Our designers create a custom cover from your brief, not a template, including the full wrap for print (front, spine, and back) and a version sized for ebook stores.
- A custom design shaped to your genre and readership.
- A print-ready full-wrap file plus an ebook cover.
- Initial concepts, revision rounds, and final files that are yours to keep.
You own the final artwork and its usage rights.
Video trailer development
A short, shareable video that gives you something to post when your book launches.
We build a trailer for social feeds and your author page, from script and licensed music to motion and an optional voiceover, ending on your cover and a clear call to action.
- A ready-to-post HD trailer, horizontal or vertical.
- Script, licensed music, footage or motion, and optional voiceover.
- Built for the platforms readers actually browse.
Up to two rounds of changes, and you pay only when you’re satisfied.
File fixing
Stuck on a rejection or error when you upload your own files? We’ll get you unblocked.
If you prepared your own interior, ebook, or cover and your platform threw a technical error you can’t clear, we diagnose the problem and either fix the files or tell you exactly what to change.
- A review of the file that’s being rejected.
- The fix applied, or clear guidance on the upstream change needed.
- A fast turnaround so a technical hitch doesn’t hold up your launch.
Often a small fix is all it takes, with no need to rebuild your files from scratch.

Who We Are
Jason PearceConnect on LinkedIn
As an independent author self-publishing a book, you want to know that you are in experienced hands.
For 30 years, we have been helping both independent and conventionally published authors get their books to market.
During that time we have learned editorial and formatting conventions that are centuries old, and we have ridden waves (both the ebb and flow) of new technologies in print and electronic publishing.
As a team, we have worked with some of the world’s largest fiction and nonfiction publishers and with many independent authors self-publishing their first book. We take part in the W3C Publishing Business Group, which stewards the EPUB standard, and we work directly with the major retailers and distributors, including Amazon KDP, Apple, Barnes & Noble, IngramSpark, and Books on Demand.
For all this experience, we treat every book as a new journey. Our role is to guide you through the self-publishing process as effortlessly as possible, to produce a final book that you are completely satisfied with. And we’ll charge you only when we reach this destination.
We offer interior formatting, ebook conversion, cover design, and editorial self-publishing services. We consult with you throughout to ensure the best services fit for your timeline and budget. We don’t sell “packages” or services that don’t add value or produce results, and we promise not to sell services you don’t need.
We respect your copyright and will always keep your content secure. All the files we produce for your book belong to you. We collect only the minimum personal information we need to provide services to you, and this information will never be given to any other company.
