When you become a Williams & King author, you’re assigned an Author’s Service Assistant who will guide you from the beginning to the end of the production of your book. You’ll also receive access to your personalized web portal. This easy-to-use web interface allows you to access information about the production and promotion of your book 24/7.
Through Author Resources, you can communicate directly with your project coordinator and review and approve all of your production and promotion materials. However, you can also email or phone your coordinator; we want you to communicate with us via the method you are most comfortable with.
Editing
We’ll assign an editor to perform a copy edit of your book to correct errors in spelling, grammar, punctuation, and subject-verb agreement.
Book Design and Layout
Your book will be formatted into pages and an appropriate typeface will be chosen.
Cover Design
Our cover artist will consider your input and create an impressive cover for your book. We can also include a recent full-color author photograph on the back cover.
- Illustrations: If your book requires illustrations, one of our artists will design creative images that support the storyline.
