Design E-Combo Packages
$675.00 Fiction, $1,195.00-Non-Fiction
Here's a one-stop option for book design. We will create both a text file and a cover file ready to print AND you will receive the two most popular eBook formats as well. Choose the fiction or non-fiction package. If your book (regardless of whether it is fiction or non-fiction) is straight text with chapter headers, choose the fiction package. If your book has any illustrations, bullet lists, tables, charts, subheadings or footnotes, choose the non-fiction package. In either package additional fees may apply for text and possibly for eBook conversion. Both packages are for paperback books, if you want a jacket an additional fee will be added.
Note: Two ISBNs are required for this package.
