From finished manuscript to published book, without losing your voice
I help authors get their book edited, designed and published on Amazon, then found by readers, drawing on the same process behind my own two published books.
How I work
A straightforward path from where your book is now to a finished copy on Amazon.
Get in touch
Tell me about your book and where it’s at, whether that’s a finished manuscript or something still taking shape.
Edit
I go through your manuscript, tightening structure and pacing while keeping your voice intact.
Design
Your book is laid out, typeset and given a cover in Adobe InDesign, ready as print quality files.
Publish
I set up your Kindle Direct Publishing account, in your own name, covering both paperback and Kindle.
Promote
Once your book is live, I can help spread the word so readers actually find it.
How I can help
A complete route from manuscript to bookshop shelf, or as much of it as you need.
Editing & proofreading
A thorough edit and proofread that tightens the structure and catches what needs catching, while keeping your voice intact.
Layout, typesetting & cover design
Full page design and cover artwork in Adobe InDesign, turned into print ready files for paperback and print on demand.
Amazon KDP set up
Your Kindle Direct Publishing account, created and owned in your own name, with a free ISBN, covering paperback and Kindle.
Ebook conversion
Your finished book formatted and ready for Kindle, alongside the print edition.
Promotion & author interviews
An article and interview to help readers discover your book, shared across social media with boosted posts, and our Christian community groups.
Author websites
A simple website for your book or your author name, so readers have somewhere to find you and buy from.
Ghost writing
If your book still needs to be written, I can work from your story or notes and write it with you.
Pricing
A guide to cost. The final figure depends on your manuscript’s length and how much editing it needs, so get in touch for an exact quote.
Getting your book published
If your book still needs writing rather than editing, ghost writing is £1,000, quoted separately and not included in the package total above.

Why work with me
I’m the author of two internationally published books myself, so I know the process from both sides of the desk, as the one holding the pen and the one getting it into print.
