SERVICES
EDITING
Need an editor or proofreader? Having a second set of professionally trained eyes on your text can make all the difference for your project. I have professional experience editing a wide range of materials, including books, scholarly papers, fiction pieces, magazine articles, ads, programs, bibliographies, indices, etc. Some style guides I am familiar with are Chicago, APA, MLA, and the (LDS) Church Style Guide, but I can also work with publisher-specific style guides. I also use the MS Word track changes feature so you can see and approve all changes I make to your document.
DESIGN
Looking for a book cover, wedding announcement, poster, or something similar? While my most prominent services include designing book covers/interiors and wedding invitations, I also enjoy creating other materials such as misc. invitations/announcements, cards, ads, pamphlets, logos, and more. I work with both scholarly and creative material. The programs I use are Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, and Illustrator. Check out my Portfolio page to see examples of my work. For wedding invitations, go to the Invitations tab to view templates and custom options.
TYPESETTING
Along with designing book covers and templates, I offer typesetting services using Adobe InDesign, an industry-standard typesetting and book design program. Typesetting is the process of formatting text using typographic elements such as fonts, line spacing, margins, copyfitting, and everything else that makes type look visually pleasing. I can take your Word manuscript and format it to look like a polished, professional publication. I also offer protection against Papyrus, Comic Sans, and other forbidden fonts.
PRICING
My typical starting rate is $32/hr. Price is negotiable depending on the nature of the project. I can also provide an overall project fee if preferred. Contact me at emilyvstrong@gmail.com with details about your proposed project and we can work something out that works best for you!
Please note that I do not offer printing services, but I may be able to recommend printers if needed. See my Invitations page for wedding announcement template pricing.
