Add-ons (Optional Upgrades)

Add any of the options below to your illustration package to suit your publishing plan.

  • Wraparound cover (if needed) +$200 AUD
    (front cover extended to spine + back)

  • Endpaper design +$250 AUD

  • Extra spot illustrations +$150 AUD each

  • Print-ready interior formatting (IngramSpark) +$400 AUD
    (layout + export of print-ready PDF using your final manuscript)

Formatting is created from the final manuscript you provide. You’ll approve a final proof before printing to make sure everything reads perfectly.
For formatting projects, I recommend ordering a printed proof copy and if possible, sending one to me so I can double-check layout and alignment on the physical book.

Good to know:

Timelines and final quotes depend on scope and calendar availability.
