Hi everyone,

 

Having released an e-book last summer, I am currently going through a re-write.

 

The feedback I received was generally positive, but some people mentioned that the overall format wasn't great and that some of the tables & diagrams were difficult to read on the kindle/ipad etc. This didn't come as a surprise, but at the time I just wanted to get something out there and did all of the editing myself.

 

However, now that moneystepper is starting to bring in some income, I'm looking to reinvest a little and pay someone to format my ebook before publishing my second edition. 

 

Has anyone got any advice on where to look, or even better, has anyone ever previously used a publisher for their ebook? If so, what price range do you think this will fall under (approx. 17,000 words, approx. 25 diagrams/tables)?

I'm actually an ebook publisher. I'm also a Level II Fiverr seller. Based on the numbers you provided, it would be about $65. That includes a discount for being a part of Yakezie. I provide a discount if you mention using my service, as well.
email me at info @ seampublishing.com for me info.

 I'm looking for editors, beta-readers, and some demographic research for my upcoming novel, Once Upon a Saturn Moon. If you like reading soft sci-fi thrillers, maybe with a touch of romance thrown in, you can find more information at http://seampublishing.com/once…..aturn-moon
