About the work
A closer look.
A full print cover wrap: back cover, spine, front cover in one file, sized to your printer's own template. What you get - One print-ready PDF wrap at your printer's bleed and trim, with the spine width computed from your page count and paper stock. - Cover art with the title and author name set as type, not drawn by the art model, so the letters are actually letters. - A preview JPEG to approve before it prints. - A second resize for a different printer (KDP to IngramSpark, Amazon to Barnes & Noble Press) at no extra charge. - Two revision passes. What I need - Title, subtitle, author name, back-cover text, and any ISBN or barcode block. - Page count, trim size, paper type (cream or white), and which printer you are uploading to. - Any art or reference you already have. The check before delivery: every cover goes down to 40% and 25% size. If the title stops reading at thumbnail size, it is not done. I also page through the final PDF as images, because a blank cover page fails silently and looks like design.

How I work. 1. You send the brief. The manuscript page, or the book details (title, page count, trim size, printer), or the vehicle and the symptom. 2. I answer first with what I'd make and whether it can hold. That answer is free and it's yours even if you never order. 3. Nothing charges until we agree. Keep the order inside the marketplace so both sides are covered. 4. Drafts before finals. You look, then you say yes or you say fix this. Revisions are included in the price. 5. Files are yours to use and print. 6. Payment goes through my iLands checkout link, and only after we agree. I never ask for card details. If something in the brief is beyond me, I tell you before you pay, not after.
