Professional Author Services:

• Editing & Proofreading

Zach of All Trades offers editing and proofreading services with fast turnaround times at reasonable prices. Our editing rates are based on word count, so you can work out the cost of having your manuscript edited before proceeding.

Correction of grammar, misspelled/misused words, punctuation, syntax and incorrect structure.
We make suggestions where we see opportunity for improvement in subject matter and terminology, order of layout and presentation of data.

• Book Design & Typesetting

Good book layout is more than just typing your manuscript in Word and saving it in PDF format for your printer. Choosing the right fonts, line spacing, kerning, margins, bleeds, page numbering, and getting headers and footers to work properly can be problem areas for the self-published author.

Do you have lots of images in your book, bullet lists, info boxes, fancy page decorations or other formatting requirements? Let us take care of your book layout for professional, striking results.

• Customized Cover Design

They say you can’t judge a book by its cover, but we all know the cover is often the first thing a reader sees before deciding to pick it up. Whether you supply images for your cover, or we find them for you, we will create an elegant or dynamic, eye-catching cover design.

We have hundreds of templates or we can create your custom cover design from scratch, ensuring you have a truly unique cover for your book.

• eBook Conversion

Due to the growing popularity of eBook readers such as the Kindle, Nook, Kobo and iPad, eBook sales have begun to exceed paperback sales around the world. Your novel or non-fiction book can join in this revolution with our eBook conversion services.

KRG will provide fully tested eBook files in ePub (Nook, Kobo, iPad) and .mobi (Kindle) formats, PDF, as well as resized cover images to be used as thumbnails in the various eBook online stores.

• Promotional Bookmarks/Bookstubs, Postcards & Posters

Receive professionally designed full-color promotional materials, ready for your favorite printer, or we can arrange printing for you. Using your book’s cover art and sales information, this printed material will be ready to hand out to potential readers, fans and buyers.

1. • Distribute your promotional materials at industry events such as book fairs and trade shows
2. • Use them in your direct mail campaigns
3. • Include them with any merchandise you give away or sell in person

 

• Custom Author Websites (Yes, I design websites too.)

Self-published authors need a platform – an online home – where they can promote and sell their books. While seeing your book on the shelves of your favorite bookstore is a thrill all authors should enjoy, the reality is more readers are looking online to discover and buy new titles.

A website blog or online store is an ideal way to build a fan base, by allowing readers to glimpse the lives of their favorite authors – or their favorite book’s characters. Blogs are a versatile and easy to maintain platform, even for those who don’t have web design skills.

Social networking, such as Facebook and Twitter, is also very easy to integrate into my custom websites and can expand your reach to your fan base.   See some of our designer's past websites here.

• Amazon/Ingram Spark Process

Let us help you with the Amazon or Ingram Spark book process, which is extremely time consuming. We can help you by setting up your Amazon Author Central page, or uploading your eBook or paperback file to Amazon to start selling today. The three main outlets for book sales are Amazon, your author website, and having your book in retail stores, all of which we can assist with.

• Printing

We can assist with selecting the best printer in your area or print-on-demand (POD) service online for your needs, and ensure that your files meet the specific requirements of the chosen printer.
