To have the best idea of what your manuscript needs next, send Marji Laine a few pages, up to ten, and let her rate your writing. She will suggest specific things that you can consider as your next steps to publication and how Faith Driven Book Production Services might be able to help you. Please complete the questionnaire below and fill in "free overview" on the type of service line. Marji will contact you with information on how to share your manuscript pages for your free overview.
If you want a more extensive perusal of your book, we can provide that for you as well. Our senior editor will spend several hours going through your manuscript, providing in-depth notes, editing, and suggestions. She will provide a detailed private consultation with you over Zoom or a phone call focused on your project and the best way to put it into the hands of readers. For only $250, this initial step can save you money and valuable opportunity, avoiding the release of a book that isn't ready. Please fill out the questionnaire below and fill in "evaluation-consultation" on the "type of service" line. Marji will contact you with the details of this service and how to share your manuscript.
Faith Driven Book Production Service operates under the parent company of Write Integrity Press and maintains the standards of clean, wholesome, and uplifting that the parent company stands by. Our audience depends on this standard, and our editors are part of that audience.
Faith Driven Book Production Service reserves the right to deny service for any reason or no reason at all. As a small business, resources are not always available to work on new projects.
With Faith Driven Book Production Services, you can expect the following:
-
You will need to submit some items in addition to your manuscript:
-
7-10 keywords, words that you would use to search for a book like yours on Amazon.
-
10 (or so) short phrases about the elements of your book. Maybe altogether, they would comprise a back cover blurb, but separately they work as teasers for your book. You can write this as paragraphs instead, but it should comprise no more than the first 20 pages of your book (roughly 2-3 chapters).
-
A 100-word (or less) author biography for distributor information including hometown and any other details you might want to be shared with your readers.
-
Front matter for your book such as Acknowledgments and Dedication.
-
Back matter for your book such as a longer author bio of about 300 words, other books by the author, discussion questions, and/or a note from the author. A headshot will also be needed for the author's bio page and the back cover.
-
A 2-paragraph blurb of fewer than 250 words for your book's back cover. This blurb will be adjusted by our editorial staff to make it stand out in your genre. That is unless you want it used exactly as you turn it in.
-
Specifications for your cover - completion of a short questionnaire.
-
-
Your book will be formatted according to currently accepted styles using the manuscript you submit, as is. No proofreading is included; however, you can arrange for editing services, should you choose.
-
You'll receive at least three sample covers according to your specifications, two email discussions, and one adjustment of your chosen sample. Extra samples or adjustments will incur extra fees as they require extra hours from our cover artists.
-
Upon completion of your book's preparation, Faith Driven will coach you as you set up an Independent Author account on Amazon. Be advised that this account must have your tax information and be connected to your regular Amazon account, so you need to be the one to create it. However, Faith Driven will step alongside you for a Zoom consultation in setting up your paperback and your e-book as well as surveying your options on Amazon and how to work with Kindle Direct Press.
