Formatting / Typesetting

For indie authors who want clean, gorgeous files—without wrestling Vellum or InDesign. 

Clean. Fast. Stress-free.

Whether it’s ebook, paperback, or both—I’ll turn your Word doc into a beautiful, clean file that’s ready for KDP, IngramSpark, or D2D.
No stress. No weird margins. No upload meltdowns.

✅ No Vellum? No problem.

✅ Hate Word styles? I’ve got you.
✅ Want a gorgeous layout without learning new software? Done.

What Do I Need to Send You?

To get started, send me:
✅ Your final manuscript as a Word doc
✅ Styles applied (Heading 1 for chapters, Normal for body text — no hard returns or manual spacing)
✅ Book title, author name, and front/back matter you’d like included (acknowledgments, copyright, teasers, etc.)
✅ Whether you need ebook, print, or both
✅ Your trim size (for print) and preferred scene break style (or let me pick something pretty)

💡 To keep formatting fast and affordable, I only accept manuscripts that use Word Styles. No hidden formatting, no Google Docs chaos. If your file needs cleaning, I can quote for that too.
