What is included in the $500 Publishing Package?

The $500 Publishing Package is designed for authors with a completed manuscript who are ready to move into professional book preparation and publishing.

The package includes completed manuscript review, basic copyediting and proofreading, interior formatting and layout, professional cover design, ISBN setup or assistance, publishing file preparation, basic publishing setup support, 2 rounds of revisions, and final author review and approval.

Does my manuscript need to be completed before I purchase the $500 Publishing Package?

Yes. The $500 Publishing Package is intended for authors whose manuscripts are already complete.

All major chapters and sections should be written before the publishing process begins.

If your manuscript still needs major writing, restructuring, or developmental work, additional services may be needed before it is ready for the standard package.

What kind of editing is included?

The package includes basic copyediting and proofreading.

This may include corrections for grammar, spelling, punctuation, typographical errors, basic consistency issues, minor sentence-clarity concerns, and obvious formatting inconsistencies.

Major rewriting, developmental editing, extensive research, writing new sections, and major restructuring are not included in the standard package.

How many rounds of revisions are included?

The $500 Publishing Package includes 2 rounds of revisions.

The first round allows you to review the edited manuscript, interior layout, and cover design and submit requested corrections.

The second round is intended for final corrections and approval before the book moves into final publishing preparation.

Additional revision rounds or major changes may be considered additional work.

What happens if I need changes outside the standard package?

If your project requires work beyond the standard package, such as major rewriting, substantial new content, major restructuring, additional revision rounds, or extensive redesign, the additional work should be discussed and approved before it begins.

Any applicable additional fees should also be confirmed before the work is started

How do I know if my manuscript is ready to publish?

Your manuscript should generally be ready if all major chapters and sections are complete and you are ready to move into editing, formatting, cover design, and publishing preparation.
