Discount starting at a 10% for multi-author series, single-author series, and small publishers.
If you publish multiple authors or a series, let's talk about a consistent look and a smooth workflow across your catalog.
Typesetting
I typeset standard fiction and nonfiction. I price every project based on manuscript length and interior design needs. If your book falls outside what’s listed below, send me a note, and I’ll take a quick look at your manuscript to see if it’s a good fit.
I use Affinity Publisher for print interior projects and Vellum for ebook projects. I do not use any generative AI in my typesetting projects.
E-book
$150 for Standard Projects
Your book, ready for every e-reader. I format your manuscript into a clean, reflowable ebook with a linked table of contents, consistent styling, and polished front and back matter, so readers get a smooth experience on any device.
Includes:
E-book formatting for major retailers
Linked table of contents and navigation
Consistent headings, scene breaks, and special elements
Front and back matter styling
Two rounds of layout revisions
Best for: Authors and presses releasing digitally, or adding an e-book edition to an existing print title.
$350 for Standard Projects
A custom interior designed for the printed page. I choose type, spacing, and layout to suit your genre and trim size, then deliver a print-ready file for your printer or distributor.
Includes:
Custom interior design for your genre and trim size
Chapter openings, running headers, and page numbering
Consistent styling for headings, scene breaks, and block quotes
Front and back matter layout
Print-ready PDF
Two rounds of layout revisions
Best for: Authors and presses releasing paperbacks or hardcovers who want pages that feel professional and finished.
Print & E-book Bundle
$425 for Standard Projects
One manuscript, both formats, a matching look. I design your print interior and build your e-book from the same layout, so readers get a consistent experience whether they're holding your book or reading it on a screen. Bundling also saves you the cost of booking each separately.
Includes:
Everything in the print interior package
Everything in the e-book package
Matching design across both editions
Two rounds of layout revisions covering both files
Best for: Authors and small presses publishing in print and digital at launch, or building a catalog with a consistent look.

Developmental Editing
Developmental editing looks at the big picture of your story: plot structure, character arcs, pacing, stakes, and the emotional payoff you're building toward. It's the edit that helps a good draft become the book you meant to write.
