Hi, everyone!

As a fellow indie author, I know first hand how much of a pain formatting an ebook can be! Let me take that stress off of you. Your ebook will be clean, beautiful, and done affordably. Already published or WIPs.

What you get for *one* price:

- All the standard formats necessary for Kindle, Nook, Apple, Kobo, and Google, plus a generic ePUB that's suitable for Smashwords, Draft2Digital, and others
- I'll work with you on the type of styling you'd prefer, including a custom scene break image
- If you don't have the proper front or back matter, I'll be happy to create those *at no additional cost*.

Pricing:

10-50k - $25
50-100k - $50
100k+ - $75

Turnaround time is typically 2-3 days (usually less) but will depend on the state of the Word document you send me and what additions will be made.

Books formatted by me:

- (My debut novel) https://www.amazon.com/White-Raven-Ca...
- https://www.amazon.com/SABRE-6-Leigh-...
- More coming soon!

Thanks!

Hello!!

I'm set to release my second novel (OMG, finally!) in mid-July. COPPER PENNIES is Dark Contemporary Fantasy, Adult, about 99K words, and is the first in 'The Red Twins Series'. It begins in Prague in 1937 and follows the main character to Boston and then back to Prague in present day.

Would anyone like an ARC to read for a review?

Here's the description:

Magda stands in the moonlit cemetery waiting for the spell to work, for her lover to return. But what’s done can’t be undone, and Magda will learn she should have left him in the ground.

When twins Avery and Chloe Parsons receive a cryptic letter and a sinister-looking book filled with illegible scrawls from their grandmother, they set out for Prague to check on her. Drawn to a cracked crystal ball in a curiosity shop, Chloe discovers it harbors the spirit of their grandmother, who tells them a horrific tale of lust, naïveté, betrayal, and… demons.

Armed with a book of dark magick they can’t read and a cracked crystal ball, the twins must stop Magda’s resurrected lover before he releases an unstoppable force that will consume the human world.

— —

Across continents and nearly a century, follow the adventures of three strong-willed women: one seduced by evil, one struggling to withstand the lure of power, and one trying to save her family—and the world.

Great take on it, Dale!

Very nice, Carole!!

Hi, all. I need some feedback on the blurb for my second novel. Dark(ish) Contemporary Fantasy, Adult. Have at it! :-D

-----

Magda stands in the cemetery under the moonlight waiting for the spell to work, for her lover to return. With the souls she’s bound to him, his resurrection is at hand. But what she’s done she cannot undo and Magda will soon learn she should have left him in the ground.

Twins Avery and Chloe Parsons know little of magick and nothing of demons. When their grandmother sends them a cryptic letter and a sinister looking book filled with illegible scrawls, they set out for Prague to check on her.

A handsome yet disturbing stranger answers the door of their grandmother’s apartment and tells the girls the woman who used to live there is dead. They are devastated…and now highly suspicious.

Drawn to a cracked crystal ball in a curiosity shop, Chloe discovers the spirit of their grandmother within who tells them a frightening tale of lust, naivety, betrayal, and demons.

Armed with a book of dark magick they can’t read and their grandmother’s spirit in a cracked crystal ball, the twins must stop Magda’s dead lover before he unleashes an unstoppable evil.

Thanks!! You all are awesome!

Thanks, Amy and Theodore!!
