Build-A-Book Workshop [EPUB ebook] 

สนับสนุน

Are you starting a new venture as an independent publisher?

Or are you already running a small press and you want to up your game?

Maybe you are an author planning to go it on your own for whatever reason inspires you…

If any of those apply to you, this book is a good starting point for doing the job. The Literary Handyman: Build-A-Book Workshop takes decades of experience in book design and layout and parses it into an easy-to-understand blueprint for constructing a book that will only stand out for the best reasons.

Please note, this is a guide to understanding the basic elements of professional book layout, not a step-by-step tutorial on how to use publishing or art programs or how to artistically design a book.

เกี่ยวกับผู้แต่ง

Award-winning author and editor Danielle Ackley-Mc Phail has worked both sides of the publishing industry for longer than she cares to admit. In 2014 she joined forces with husband Mike Mc Phail and friend Greg Schauer to form her own publishing house, e Spec Books (www.especbooks.com).
Her published works include six novels, Yesterday’s Dreams, Tomorrow’s Memories, Today’s Promise, The Halfling’s Court, The Redcaps’ Queen, and Baba Ali and the Clockwork Djinn, written with Day Al-Mohamed. She is also the author of the solo collections Eternal Wanderings, A Legacy of Stars, Consigned to the Sea, Flash in the Can, Transcendence, Between Darkness and Light, and the non-fiction writers’ guide, The Literary Handyman, and is the senior editor of the Bad-Ass Faeries anthology series, Gaslight & Grimm, Side of Good/Side of Evil, After Punk, and Footprints in the Stars. Her short stories are included in numerous other anthologies and collections.
In addition to her literary acclaim, she crafts and sells original costume horns under the moniker The Hornie Lady Custom Costume Horns, and homemade flavor-infused candied ginger under the brand of Ginger KICK! at literary conventions, on commission, and wholesale.
Danielle lives in New Jersey with husband and fellow writer, Mike Mc Phail and two extremely spoiled cats.
