Illustrating & Publishing service
Have you ever wondered what it would take to bring your idea to life as a fully illustrated and commercially available book? I offer a one-stop, illustration, design and publication service.
The cost to illustrate a book varies based upon complexity and style request. The price per contract averages from $3,000 to $5,000 and includes 15 full color illustrations, design, and publication.
In other words, we begin with your idea and words, and in 4 months you complete our contract with your book in hand that is available for purchasing on Amazon. I set up my clients as a self-publisher through Amazon's print on demand service (Kindle Direct).
As the artist, designer, and publisher, my contract fee is final and once your book is finished, I do not get royalties or further payments. Your text and story remain 100% yours the entire time.
