Interior Design for Paperback Book

Closed Posted 6 years ago Paid on delivery
Closed Paid on delivery

I have written a book in Word that I am about to publish on Amazon. Because the formatting and interior design is not very good, I need you to format it so that it looks and feels like a "real" book.

The book is about 88,000 words long and I expect it will come out at around 250-300 pages in it's 5.5" x 8.5" paperback format. I'd like to be able to get the book formatted for Kindle as well if possible.

I don't really know the specifics of what the interior design should consist of, but here are some considerations:

- What font combinations would you use? I've used Minion Pro and Crimson Text myself and I think it looks quite good, but do you have another suggestion?

- Where do you stand on widows and orphans?

- Improved paragraphing

- Proper hyphenation and justification

- Proper running heads. What do you suggest?

- Front matter page. I can provide you with the copy required for this page.

- Table of contents

- At the end there is a special offer that will require formatting of it's own. Should just be 1-2 pages of smaller type.

That should give you enough to go on. If you have any questions for me, please don't hesitate to ask. I don't want to award this to someone who auto-bids, so please include "Shakespeare" somewhere in your proposal.

Thanks!
