I’m a book formatter and self-publishing specialist with more than 30 years of experience in the book and digital publishing industries. My work includes interior book formatting, EPUB/eBook conversion, cover preparation, author website design and build, and publishing support.
Over the years, publishing technology has changed dramatically, but one thing hasn’t: producing a professional book requires careful attention to countless details. I enjoy helping authors navigate those details and turn a finished manuscript into a book they’re proud to publish.
I work directly with self-publishing authors throughout the publishing process. If you’re running into file validation issues, confusing platform requirements, or strange KDP or IngramSpark quirks, I can help pinpoint the problem and find a way forward.
And sometimes you just need to talk to a real person. I’m available for one-on-one communication by email, text, phone, Zoom, or Google Meet, so you don’t have to figure everything out through help pages and automated systems.
Publishing doesn’t end with formatting. I can also help with the next steps—from ISBNs and barcodes to metadata, platform selection, file preparation, and getting your book ready for publication and distribution.
Whether you’re publishing your first book, preparing a new edition, or need help solving a problem with an existing title, I bring decades of publishing experience, technical expertise, and careful attention to detail to every project.
