It’s important for us to know what you want out of the book so we can guide you on the right path to do this in terms of book cover, title, categories etc. *Please note that very few people make a living from selling their books as the average book sells between 200 – 300 copies and maybe 1000 over its life-time.
The tasks involved in copy editing include checking written material for grammar, spelling, style, and punctuation issues before it’s prepared for proofreading. A copy editor may also ask your permission to do a rewrite, if necessary, to fix any problems with transitions, wordiness, jargon, and to ensure the style of the piece fits with the publication. This work is known as revision (Grammarly).
Proof readers don’t suggest major changes to the text; rather, they look for minor text and formatting errors and confirm the material is ready for publication.(Grammarly)
You are allowed up to 20 images in any book. Any images beyond this will be charged in blocks of ten which are £49 per block. This will be charged both for Paperback and Kindle version as the formats differ.
