Book Production and Distribution Services

Book production services are ideal for writers who have a finished manuscript they would like to self-publish. Transform your novel, memoir, nonfiction book, young adult book, children’s book, short story collection, or poetry collection into a polished final product with customized cover design, interior design, printing, or ebook conversion. Share your book with the world with warehousing, fulfillment, and distribution services.

WriteByNight works in tandem with TLC Graphics & Narrow Gate Books to deliver all book production and distribution services. Individual pricing is available upon request.

Book Cover Design

Produce an attractive, unique, saleable cover design for your book. We’ll consult with you to get a feel for your needs and expectations, then produce multiple designs which will be tweaked and revised for maximum appeal. Once you’re satisfied with your front cover, we’ll design a back cover and spine to match.

Includes:

• Preliminary Q&A to determine your needs, goals, preferences, and expectations
• Optional read-through of your manuscript
• 3-5 front cover designs
• Design of back cover and spine
• Generation of PDF file for the book’s printing, electronic images for promotion, and bar code
• Optional online posting of book for pre-sale

Book Interior Design

Lay out and format your book’s interior for cohesiveness, consistency, and maximum appeal. We’ll design the interior of the book in full, including all front matter (title page, copyright page, table of contents, preface, and dedication) and any components unique to your manuscript (worksheets, diagrams, pull quotes, etc.). Interior design services are intended to complement cover design.

Includes:

• Preliminary Q&A to determine your needs, goals, preferences, and expectations
• Optional read-through of your manuscript
• 1-2 interior designs (5-8 pages each)
• 1-2 rounds of changes according to your feedback
• Complete interior layout and design
