Filming content in sweaters is NOT for me, especially as a Florida resident. So a long time ago, I started using leg warmers on my forearms when unboxing and shooting aesthetic bookish photos and reels to create the illusion of a cozy sweater! That way, I’m not sweating profusely while I am content batching and I don’t have to throw on a bunch of different sweaters when I have a dozen colors of leg warmers 😂

During this phase, we're reviewing manuscripts and deciding which book we want to publish. At the end of this phase, we offer an author a book deal.

Consideration

As the manuscript goes through several phases of editorial work, the cover and interior design takes place, while format decisions about paper stocks and printing treatments are made.

Editorial & Design

While the books are on press, the pre-order links go live and the marketing campaign ramps up with waves of review copy mailings to media and influencers.

Pre-order

The finished copies have released on the book's publication date. Go give it some love!

You look over to see me, there to help you select your next perfect read!
