Book Design for Book Series

We can help you build your publishing brand with coordinated series designs. If you need assistance with content management and/or creation, we can help. For example, rather than publish your life’s work in one volume, consider a series of more focused and reader-friendly volumes. We can help with developmental editing, series logos, and more.
