You’ve spent months or maybe even years writing your book. The design of your book should reflect the same level of care and professionalism. At KP Communications, we help authors transform finished manuscripts into polished, publication-ready books through custom cover design, interior formatting, self-publishing support, and more.

We believe every book has a story worth sharing, and every author deserves a publishing partner who can guide them through the design process with clarity, creativity, and expertise. Whether you need a cover, interior formatting, or full-service book design, we're here to help bring your vision to life.

This isn’t just graphic design. It’s intentional and strategic design for all parts of your book.

HOW IT WORKS

As your creative partner, my priority is to fully understand your project and deliver exceptional results from start to finish. In order to do that, here's what the process typically looks like.

DISCOVERY & DIRECTION

We begin the design process with a conversation to listen, clarify goals, and define direction. This step ensures that you get a custom project that fits both you and your audience well.

DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT

With a full understanding of your needs, creation begins and is guided by strategy.
You will receive the initial designs within our target timeframe. From there, we will revise as needed.

REFINE & FINALIZE

After revisions and approval, you will receive final files for printing, publishing, or use as needed. Your final files will be built to the proper specs, and you will have a polished, production-ready project.

FAQ

How do projects typically work?

Each project begins with discovery conversation. I'll have questions for you, and I'm happy to answer any questions you have for me. This call will start us off with clarity, defining goals, scope, and the best approach for the work ahead.

WHEN CAN WE GET STARTED?

This may sound odd, but I typically work backward to determine our timeline. Starting with the date you need your project completed, I will create a timeline for us that includes your custom creation, editing, and finalization of files. This typically happens shortly after our initial discovery conversation.

Will you make revisions for me?

Of course! I always include edits in any proposal I provide. Additional revisions beyond that will be billed at my hourly rate, as specified in the proposal you will sign before our work together begins.

What is a typical turnaround time?

This depends on the project. But once I understand the scope of the project and various pieces in play, I can communicate timelines up front. This will help us stay on track and meet any deadlines you have.

what does payment look like?

For most services, I require a 50% non-refundable deposit to officially begin your design project. The remaining 50% will be due upon completion of the project. I'll send an invoice for the deposit and final payment to make the process simple.

Can we keep working together after my project?

There would be no greater compliment. I have had several clients come to me for their first project and then reach back out again for something else.  I also offer retainers exclusive to past clients who want to continue our design relationship.
Do you have questions that aren't answered here? I would love to hear from you.

READY TO BEGIN?

All but ONE client in 12 years has come from word-of-mouth referrals.
​They all had success and you can too!

​If you’re looking for a creative partner who will guide your project with care, clarity, and experience, I'd love to learn more about what you’re working on.
