Frequently Asked
Everything you'd ask on a discovery call — turnaround, files, revisions, KDP and IngramSpark prep. Missing something? Send a short message from contact.
Standard turnaround is 7 – 10 business days from brief approval to final files, including two rounds of revisions. Rush delivery (3 – 5 days) is available at +30% depending on scope. Series work moves faster once the master template is locked.
Print-ready paperback / hardcover wrap PDF (CMYK, 0.125" bleed, exact spine width for your page count and paper stock), Amazon-compliant eBook JPEG (1600×2560), source PSD/AI, and a set of 3D mockups for marketing. Add-ons: hand-coded EPUB, audiobook square (3000×3000), A+ content banners.
Yes. I calculate spine width from your final page count and paper stock (white / cream / colour), apply the exact 0.125" bleed and safe-area, embed fonts, flatten to CMYK, and export using each platform's current template. Files upload without KDP or IngramSpark bouncing them back.
Two dedicated revision rounds are included in every package. Each round can cover typography, palette, imagery direction and layout tweaks. Additional rounds are billed at a flat rate — but honestly, we rarely need them if the brief is solid.
Yes — series work is my favourite. I build a locked master template (title system, wordmark, imagery grid, spine treatment) so every sequel drops into the same shelf-family. Books 2, 3, 4… are billed at a reduced rate once the master exists.
Send it over with the current Amazon link and sales history. A redesign is often the fastest way to unstick a stalled launch — new type, new palette, new hierarchy, tuned for the thumbnail. Before / after examples live on the home page.
Both, depending on genre. Fantasy, sci-fi and children's usually get commissioned illustration or heavily composited AI + hand-paint work. Business, memoir and literary tend to lean on considered stock, typography and photo-composition. Every cover is genre-researched first.
I convert the print master into an audiobook square that meets ACX / Audible spec (2400×2400+, RGB, correct text-size ratios). Hand-coded reflowable EPUBs with clean semantic markup are available as an add-on — no auto-converted files.
Send a brief from the /brief page or a short message from /contact. I'll come back within 24 hours with a fixed quote, a realistic timeline and two or three directions worth exploring — before any money moves.
No adult / explicit erotica covers, no hate or extremist content, no work that reuses another artist's cover. Everything else — from cosy romance to grimdark fantasy to religious devotional — is fair game.
