Karen Newton

I’m a book formatter and publishing consultant with more than 30 years of experience in the book and digital publishing industries. My work includes interior page layout, EPUB/eBook conversion, cover template creation, website design and build, and copyediting.

I do this work because I love helping authors turn their publishing dreams into reality, particularly when the technical details start to feel daunting.

I work directly with authors through every step of the self-publishing process. If you’re running into file validation issues or strange platform quirks, I help pinpoint and resolve the problems so you can move forward with confidence.

I’m also available for one-on-one communication— email, text, phone, Zoom, or Google Meet—because sometimes you just need to talk to a real person instead of navigating everything through automated systems.

Publishing doesn’t end with formatting, so I guide authors through the next steps as well, from obtaining ISBNs and barcodes to choosing the right platforms for publication.

I look forward to applying my experience, technical skills, and attention to detail to your manuscript!

If you are ready to move forward with your project, I’d love to talk. Email karennewton1@gmail.com to set up an initial consultation.
