Custom book cover design + interior layout for authors and publishers.
As a self-proclaimed book design nerd, I absolutely love the mix of tediousness on the interior layout and the creative possibilities on the cover design – all to show off the author's hard work and share it with the world.

PAST BOOK DESIGN PROJECTS
BOOK DESIGN PROCESS
I design book projects with an expedited process called Book Design Batch Days, where I will design your entire book from start to finish in a week’s time. This lets me focus my undivided attention on your project alone, so you can get your book into your readers’ hands more quickly.
HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:
FILE PREP
Prior to our scheduled design week, you’ll send your fully edited, finalized manuscript, printer details, page size, and any needed design notes or image files.
FRONT COVER
We’ll start with your front cover, and I’ll send you 2-3 design concepts on Day 1. We’ll work through revisions the same day, and finish with a working front cover.
INTERIOR
Next, I’ll send 2-3 concepts for your interior layout. You’ll pick your favorite, then I’ll power through your entire layout over the next 1-3 days (depending on length).
FINALIZE
As you’re reviewing your interior proof, I’ll design your back cover. Then I’ll make any needed interior edits, and prep your final print-ready files. Your ebook conversion will come last, then you’ll be set!
No elaborate timelines. Flat-rate pricing. No hidden fees. Native design files included.
Get your book done faster and more efficiently with Book Design Batch Days.

HEAR FROM PAST BOOK DESIGN CLIENTS
This was the first book that I decided to self-publish, and I was worried it wouldn’t look and feel professional. Working with Kelsey took away all of those fears. She confidently and patiently guided me through the formatting process, which ultimately resulted in a book I’m incredibly proud of.
— Tim Arnold, non-fiction author
Hiring Kelsey was one of the best professional decisions I've ever made. She was a star on this project: hard-working, efficient, flexible, creative, kind, highly skilled, and really knowledgeable. Feel so lucky she was recommended to me.
