I am offering authors formatting services for professionally designing their paperbacks, hardbacks, and eBooks.
I am also offering fantasy map drawing work.
Formatting Work
Formatting work will approximately take about 8 days, with an additional 5 to 6 days per book version and approximately 4 days grace per book version for editing and fixing issues. For example for one type of eBook and paperback full formatting time from submission to ready for publication will be, approximately 18 days. I will send you a draft after formatting for you to check the document to make sure you are happy with it. Any tweaks will be made within the 4 day grace period after you have checked the documents.
​
If you need any changes made, let me know ASAP and I will fix them for you. If you wish to make changes to the manuscript, it will mean starting again on the formatting work, unless you can indicate the changes in the document for me to alter in the masters. In both cases this will be additional time of 3 to 6 days, if a full reformat there will be an additional charge.
​
Chapter header and front matter design work at an additional cost, will add more time to the ordered work. Depending on the design needed, this could take up to an additional 2 to 3 days. If you have designs in mind, please let me know and supply desired images.

Fantasy Map Work
Map drawing work will approximately take about 10 days, with an additional 10 days for shading and or colouring. So if you want the full multipack of three versions this can take about 30 to 40 days depending on complexity.
​
I will send you a draft after the initial drawing to make sure you are happy with it. Any tweaks will be made within a 5 day grace period after you have checked the image. There is no limit to adjustments within reason. Shading and colouring will not commence until the line drawing has been finalised.
​
If you need any changes made, let me know ASAP and I will fix them for you. If you wish to make major changes this could mean starting again and this will be additional time of about 6 days.
