Producing a book takes more than binding the pages of your Word document. It is the complete apparatus of a bound publication—from half-title to colophon—that makes reading a pleasure. In addition to producing an elegant, printed edition of your work, I can assist with preparing a copyright notice, an index, glossary, and other end matter—even assigning your book an ISBN and barcode for publishing in the retail trade. An eye for type and the art of restrained design will combine to invite readers to crack the spine, moisten their thumb, and turn your first page with relish.
