SALEEM A.

Before I started running book production for others, I did it for myself, twice over. Most authors know what they want to say. What stops a project is everything that comes after the idea, and for a publisher that means files that come back wrong, timelines that slip, and a title that should have shipped weeks ago. That's the part I take off your plate. I work as an extension of your production pipeline, not a one-off freelancer you have to manage line by line. Hand me a manuscript and a spec, and you get back clean, consistent, on-deadline files that pass platform review the first time. The technical side is where I'm strongest. Print-ready PDFs with proper embedding and trim setup, reflowable ePubs that hold up across readers, and distribution configured correctly on KDP, IngramSpark, Draft2Digital, and B&N Press. I'm a published author myself (The Logic of Healing, The Line Between Help and Harm), so I read a manuscript the way your editors do, not just the way a formatter does. What I handle for publishers and agencies: Developmental and copy editing Interior formatting and typesetting (print and digital) ePub creation and conversion Print-ready PDF prep and file QA KDP, IngramSpark, Draft2Digital, and B&N Press distribution setup Manuscript pipeline and production management across a list I also take on ghostwriting and full self-publishing consulting when a client needs the manuscript built from the ground up. That work is selective, but it means I understand the whole arc of a book, which makes me a better production partner for the parts you actually need. If you've got a title stuck somewhere between finished draft and finished book, that's exactly the gap I close. Send me the manuscript and tell me where it needs to land.
