A Note from the Team
For me, design should be simple and clean. It should have the right color palette, images, and fonts to really make the project shine. My previous projects span from book covers to branding packages to single graphics for advertisements or promotional purposes.
-Kat Savage, Graphic Designer
When it comes to editing, my style is to keep your style, which means ensuring the entire book has the same unique voice throughout. You will never see me deleting your words and putting in my own based on personal preference. That’s what comments are for (and you can expect a LOT of comments—ask my clients). I’ve been blessed over the years with a growing clientele of multitalented people who trust me not just with their current books, but with all their future projects. How? Simple. With editing, comes trust-earning. I will tell you when you’ve been lazy with words. I will tell you when you’ve shattered my world with a single sentence (in a good way). Above all, I will root for you—always.
-Christina Hart, Editor
