Your Work — Your Manuscript — You're Published
You've put a lot of effort and hours into writing your manuscript, and now the time has come to hold that book in your hands. My name is Cheryl Perez. I want to help you make it happen.The literary world has changed significantly in the past few years, making publishing your own book a realistic and attainable goal. But formatting print books can be difficult, time-consuming, and often overwhelming.
I have over fifteen years of experience designing book interiors and laying out manuscripts. If you want to self-publish through a print-on-demand service such as Createspace, Lulu, or Lightning Source, I can get your manuscript print-ready.

• I'm only satisfied when you are, and I'll continue to work with you until we get your project where is needs to be
What Steps are Involved?

• Completed interior layout will be electronically delivered in the format that is most compatible with your publisher
• Back cover artwork will be designed to match supplied cover artwork
• Complete cover artwork will be formatted to match cover specifications of your publisher

"Cheryl Perez is not only fast but FABULOUS! She was able to quickly format a monster project of mine, a 665 page baby, making it possible for Shadow Walker to be born just in time for the holidays! Always pleasant, fun to work with, and having a keen eye for detail, she made my new foray into print on demand a wonderful and not-so-scary experience! THANK YOU, Cheryl!
