THE RICHEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD - A TRILOGY - BOOK ONE by M.G. Lambert | |||||
The first book in a trilogy of historical fiction. I received a typed and marked-up manuscript which I needed to re-type once I designed and set up the InDesign template. As always, I used the best InDesign methods in order to create press-ready files for print and easily convert to .epub and .mobi formats for ebooks. In addition to the book design and production, I also did extensive proofreading, and am now also working on marketing this book. This 6" x 9" trade paperback is available at Amazon.com in print as well as in Kindle format. Books two and three are due to be published in 2015. | |||||

AVA BLUE: THE LAST LORELEI by Greg D'Alessandro and Anne Beatrice Jarmain | |||||
The first book in the Seaspell Series. I created an InDesign template using the best methods in order to create press-ready files for print and easily convert to .epub and .mobi formats for ebooks. I received the text in a Word document, and flowed that into InDesign and formatted it using the paragraph and character styles I had set up for continuity. This 6" x 9" trade paperback is available at Amazon.com in print format as well as in ebook format at the Kindle, Nook and iBook online stores. | |||||

TRADITION & CHANGE IN PARADISE: The Story of Palm Beach Day Academy by Barbara Bayless Close and Hilary Beesch Mendoza | |||||
This 264-page, full-color book is currently being printed, and is also available in Kindle format. A history of over 100 years of this school, the book is complete with over 200 photos, some from the early 1900s. Working with the old photos (some which were scanned from printed pieces) was a challenge due to dust, scratches, discolorations, and the overall age of the images. Another artist designed the covers, but I converted the Word documents to InDesign, finessed all of the images, designed the overall book and set up the InDesign files to be compatible with converting to ebook formats. | |||||

Available at Amazon.com in print as well as in Kindle format. | |||||

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE USA - FY 2013 Created by the the Institute of Politics at Harvard University and the American Education Foundation | |||||
A heavily-footnoted report, with 42 graphs and 6 tables, designed for print as well as for .epub and .mobi ebook formats. I received Microsoft Word documents and Excel files, and set up an InDesign template that would work well for print as well as being easily converted to ebook formats with as little re-work as possible. My work also included setting up the ISBN numbers, and submitting the book to CreateSpace (for print) and Kindle Direct Publishing (for the ebook). This report is now available for purchase in print via Amazon.com, as well as for Kindle devices via Amazon's Kindle store. You might also be interested in the video that Harvard produced about this report. |

This book is now available for purchase in print via Amazon.com, as well as for Kindle devices via Amazon's Kindle store. |

CropNutrients4U: Eight page, full color brochure. | |||||
Previously, this was a 12-page, letter sized brochure with a lot of redundant information. I was able to consolidate the information and photos, and turn it into an eight-page, 8.5"h x 5.5"w brochure, which not only decreased the printing costs, but also made this brochure easier for the potential customers to put in a pocket for review later.
Challenges included learning enough about these very technical/biological products so that I could rewrite/consolidate the information about them to make it easier for the customers to understand. Accuracy was also a concern and my time included reading the information on various vendor websites. Another challenge was not having any of the high resolution original graphics that were used in the previous brochure. I recreated the logo in Adobe Illustrator, and the client now has the original logo file to use wherever they need it, for business cards, letterhead, etc. The client was very pleased with how this new brochure came out. And this brochure was the basis of the new (not yet live) website I have designed for this client. This brochure now has correct TMs and Rs and copyright information as well, because I pay attention to details. |

A heavily-footnoted, 110-page report, with 49 graphs and 13 tables, designed for print as well as for .epub and .mobi ebook formats. I received Microsoft Word documents and Excel files, and set up an InDesign template that would work well for print as well as being easily converted to ebook formats with as little re-work as possible.

FLIP FLOP CEO by Janine Finney, Lory Muirhead and Whitney Roberts | |||||
The client had already had an updated version of the 252-page book printed, and contacted me to convert it to .mobi format for Kindle. The InDesign files were not formatted to be ebook-conversion-friendly, which is crucial for time-savings when you know your book is going to be available both in print and ebook formats. Keeping the same design standards, I reformatted the InDesign files, then created the .epub and .mobi versions of this book, making the ebook version look much more like the printed version than it did previously. This ebook is now available for purchase for Kindle devices via Amazon's Kindle store. |

THE STATES PROJECT | |||||
A series of ten reports (so far), for a non-profit organization, The States Project. These reports are presented by the Institute of Politics at Harvard University, Fels Institute of Government at the University of Pennsylvania and the American Education Foundation, and funded by contributions from the W. P. Carey Foundation. Text was received via Word documents, imported into InDesign, and formatted, using master pages and character and paragraph styles to ensure continuity throughout all of the reports. Data from Excel files was used to create graphs in Illustrator and charts in InDesign. The files were prepared for print, as well as for downloadable .pdfs on The States Project website.
