I’ve had a full plate lately, and it’s shown in the scarcity of updates for this blog. I’m currently reading submissions, working on a site redesign and preparing our first anthology over at Speech Bubble Magazine. I’ve also been focusing a bit more effort on my fiction again, in hopes of returning to this blog with fresh new fiction content – mainly my planned web serial – The Penny Pincher. But  my real focus lately is on my freelance services available through Totencreative, where I’m now offering a new service for self-publishing writers.

If you’re a writer planning to self-publish your book as an e-book, then the new services I’m offering at Totencreative on a freelance basis are meant for you. Before you release your book as an e-book, it needs to be properly formatted to display correctly on the device its intended for. While I can format your book for whatever platform you intend to release for, the service I’m most excited about is the formatting service directed toward writers with the intention of releasing through Smashwords.

Smashwords is a great way to publish your book as an e-book and reach readers. To reach the most readers, you really want your book to qualify for the Smashwords Premium Distribution, which is the list Smashwords distributes to major retailers. Before this can happen, your book needs to be formatted to their style guide so it will be properly processed by their special “Meatgrinder” software. It then needs to pass the Smashwords AutoVetter, which checks your book automatically to make sure it meets certain requirements. The book then needs to pass a hands-on inspection.

With a style-guide reaching almost 24,000 words, this could easily be intimidating to someone like you, wanting to release an e-book, but it doesn’t have to be. For $24.99, I will format your book for you, and guarantee it will pass the AutoVetter. If it doesn’t pass, just send it back and I will fix it. This is an affordable way to make sure your book gains inclusion to the premium distribution catalog as quickly as possible.

For only $24.99, you get:

In addition to formatting services for e-book authors, I also design book covers. Contact me through Totencreative today, or email me directly at authoreit (at) gmail.com.
