PENNED DOWN · PUBLISHING BY BYA

Your words deserve a world.

You wrote the words. Now let’s make a book people can hold—and give it a first introduction to the world. Pick the support that matches where your manuscript stands.

Tell me about your book

Choose your path

Start where your book is.

Need production help with your own imprint, or want Penned Down to publish alongside you? There’s a starting point for both.

01 / PRODUCTION SUPPORT

Your book. Your imprint.

The Book

Your cover and interior are ready. I’ll help choose the printer, coordinate one physical proof cycle, and arrange the agreed order after your approval. You remain the publisher; printing, proofs, and shipping are separate.

From $225 + print costs

Layout + Book

Bring a finished manuscript. I’ll give up to 100 simple text pages a clean, readable interior, make one revision, and prepare the print-ready file. Printer selection and one proof cycle follow; cover design and editing are separate.

From $550 + print costs

02 / PENNED DOWN PUBLISHING

Let’s bring the book into the world.

The First Chapter

Your first book gets a real publishing plan. For up to 7,500 words and 100 simple pages, this includes light proofreading, a full paperback jacket, short author bio, two social graphics, a bookmark, print coordination, and Penned Down publishing setup. A focused first release with room to grow.

$999 + outside costs

The House

Give the manuscript room to become a book and meet its readers. For up to 15,000 words, this includes premium copyediting, a full paperback jacket, up to 150 simple interior pages or 100 designed poetry pages, a short and long bio, book leaflet, three launch graphics, simple EPUB, print coordination, and Penned Down publishing setup. An author website can be added separately.

$1,499 + outside costs

Every quote confirms the word and page limits, revision rounds, formats, and timing. Printing, ISBN, proof copies, shipping, and an optional author website are separate. Longer or illustrated books and substantial rewriting are quoted by scope.

MAKE IT YOURS

Build around the book.

BEFORE

Get it ready

Need one missing piece? Add a cover, a clean interior, proofreading, copyediting, or reflowable eBook conversion based on your files and goals.

AT LAUNCH

Make some noise

Give the book a way to meet people: a leaflet, bio pair, coordinated launch graphics, author website, or separately scoped release event plan.

BEYOND

Keep showing up

Keep the book in motion with bookstore submission support, vendor applications, booth pieces, or a scoped monthly marketing plan.

Store placement, event acceptance, and sales are never guaranteed. Printing and outside fees are quoted separately.

FIRST, TELL ME WHERE YOU ARE

A manuscript, a finished file, or somewhere between.

We’ll review the book’s length, format, stage, and launch goal before choosing a package. Printing, shipping, ISBN, hosting, events, and other outside costs appear separately in the quote, so you can see what pays for the work and what pays a vendor.

Build beyond the book

A launch can have more than one chapter.

Bookstore submissions, vendor support, release event planning, eBooks, and additional marketing designs are available as add-ons.

Ask for a quote

Need design beyond the book?

Need a website, author graphics, or creative direction without a publishing package? Branding Your Artistry can handle those as standalone projects.
