So you want to self-publish something.

I think that's great.
And, if you need help with the cover of your self-published book so that it doesn't scream "self-published" and looks like a serious book, I can help. I've mainly worked with Lulu.com, but I can whip together a front or back or wrap-around cover to meed the specs of whatever printer you're working with.
This can be accomplished either by using graphics and clip art, or having me actually draw or paint or photograph an image specifically commissioned for your book.
Let's have a look.
Pricing:
- Front cover only, using stock photos/clip art (flat rate): $45
- Front and back cover, using stock photos/clip art (flat rate): $80
- Front and back cover, using commissioned original art for front: $175
- Promotional materials for your book (digital files only; you will take them to your printer): $100
- Hourly fee for additional services: $35 (minimum, one hour, time sheet provided to you)
- Other services: Quotes available upon request
I won't proofread, typeset, or format the main body of the book for upload. But, I can help you with the graphics and placing the ISBN bar code that you may have, and even some interior graphics. I can do that. Contact me and we'll work something out.
If you're looking to set up a basic informational web site, or even your very own author web site, read here.
However, if what you really need is some direction in how to go about getting your book published or finding a company that'll do it for you, or just any direction at all, here are a few links that may help you:
- Various printers and service providers
- Links for writers
- Links for photographers (there's a section on places to print books and albums)
