Nonfiction
Nonfiction e-books do not use sidebars or text boxes, so those will not translate from your print book (if applicable) to your e-book. In addition, indexes are not necessary for e-books, so those will not be formatted. Nonfiction titles cost more due to items such as special formatting, subsections, and endnotes which take quite a bit of extra time to format. If you have a nonfiction book with no endnotes, text boxes, and very few photos, I may reduce the cost.

Print Book Formatting
You supply your manuscript or other content in Word, PDF, InDesign, or Open Office, and I will supply you with a PDF print-ready copy, which can be uploaded to Amazon’s CreateSpace or other print-on-demand services such as Lulu. I charge $45.00 per hour, and the total cost will depend on the complexity of your design (for example, books with pull quotes and sidebars take more time to design). Fill out the Get Started form, and let’s talk about your project.
