Our Process

01

02

  • Your manuscript will undergo a thorough review, focusing on its global structure and overall evaluation. Your editor will provide professional advice on how to enhance the manuscript to its fullest potential. After you have considered the team's suggestions, you will collaborate with your Publishing Manager to determine which, if any, further editing actions you wish to undertake prior to proceeding with publication.

    • The completed manuscript, with options for a foreword, dedication, and acknowledgments if you choose to include them.
    • Any necessary graphics, illustrations, or photographs
    • A draft of the book description
    • A draft of your biography
    • Your photograph

04

  • Cover Design
    The saying goes that one shouldn't judge a book by its cover, yet in reality, covers play a crucial role in a book's reception. As an author, it's essential to give your book's cover the attention it deserves, recognizing that your audience will indeed make judgments based on it.
     
    The process begins with a consultation with one of our designers, dedicated specifically to your book's cover. This conversation aims to refine your ideas and crystallize a few potential designs for your cover. Following this, our designers will craft a range of initial cover designs. These preliminary concepts are vital for gaining a deeper understanding of your vision and direction.

    We will then arrange a discussion with you to go over these designs, pinpointing what aspects resonate with you and what don't. Based on this input, we will continually refine the design until it perfectly encapsulates your vision for the book's cover.
     
    After finalizing the front cover that you're thoroughly satisfied with, our team will proceed to design the spine and back cover. This will include your book's description, your biography, and, if desired, your author photo, completing the visual package of your book.

05

  • Copywriting & Proofreading
    The importance of back covers and book descriptions cannot be overstated! A compelling book description and a well-crafted author bio are key to catching the interest of potential readers. Our team of copywriters will fine-tune both to enhance their appeal and marketing effectiveness. Additionally, we will meticulously proofread your manuscript to eliminate any spelling or grammar mistakes, ensuring your text is polished and professional.

06

  • Interior Layout Design
    he significance of exceptional interior design cannot be overstressed. At Eighty20 Publishing, we have witnessed numerous books with outstanding manuscripts and captivating covers that were let down by poor interior design. The interior of your book plays a crucial role in defining the reading experience for your audience.

    Similar to the cover design process, we highly value your input on the envisioned interior design. Whether it's the font choices, graphic styling, margins, page numbers, or sidebars, your preferences can be inspired by any book you admire. Your designer will integrate these elements with the styling of your book’s cover, ensuring a seamless and engaging reading experience from the first page to the last.

07

  • Publishing and Distribution of Your Book
    Your dedicated publishing team will collaborate closely with you to identify your distribution objectives and select the appropriate retail outlets. Whether your aim is to have exclusive availability on Amazon or to ensure your book is accessible on a broad array of international platforms, they will present the most suitable options tailored to your needs. They will manage all aspects of account setup, file preparation, and book uploading, laying the groundwork for a successful book launch.
