Where can writers find quality design and publishing services?

As a writer, there are plenty of options today when it comes to finding design and publishing services.

Freelance service providers like Fiverr and UpWork have hundreds, even thousands of people to help writers connect with editors, designers, marketers, and just about any other service a writer might need. However, are more options always better for you, an aspiring author? 

If you haven't heard, have a look at Reedsy - a dedicated, author-centric platform that helps connect writers with industry-leading professionals that have worked in traditional publishing and have what it takes to help you bring your book idea from finished manuscript to printed book.

The process for aspiring authors is as straightforward as it is simple. You can search for specific services you need (ghostwriter, editor, cover designer, page layout designer, illustrator, print production specialist, and more). From there, you create a brief for your project and invite others to provide an offer for your project. Once you and your service provider agree on cost and deadline, you're off and running!

I was fortunate to come across Reedsy a few ago, and at a time where I was looking to expand my design services to a wider market. Once approved as an interior page designer on the platform, quality project briefs started flowing into my inbox. Not only were these projects something I could not have found on my own, but Reedsy made it downright easy for me to create an offer with costs and dates. Reedsy took care of collecting payment and everything else. Now, instead of paying to find leads, or relying solely on word--of-mouth, I'm happy to have made many new clients across multiple genres, that I enjoy sharing repeated work with. And I am happy to share some of the revenue that their projects bring to me with Reedsy.

If you are in need of author services, please give Reedsy a look. And feel free to reach out to me in case you need anything!
