Design
A reader’s journey into their next favorite book begins at the cover. A great design entices a reader to explore further. It's your book’s first impression, a declaration of your genre, and a foreshadowing of the adventure to come.
Your cover should make a lasting, positive impression and stand out from the competition. For a high-quality cover that exemplifies your book, it’s important to work with a professional book-cover designer.
Distribution
Once your book is complete, Tellwell’s distribution services will help get your masterpiece into the hands of your readers. All publishing packages include print-on-demand paperback distribution, making your book available for popular retailers like Amazon, Chapters/Indigo, and Barnes & Noble to include on their websites.
Editing
Editing brings fresh eyes and an objective perspective to your composition. It looks for sense, logic, believability, and meaning. It tests consistency and improves your writing. It interrogates the content and structure of your manuscript and examines the details at the word and punctuation level. It pushes you to improve and helps you to develop a discerning eye. It adds value and quality to a manuscript. The purpose of editing is twofold: it allows your meaning to come across clearly and builds essential trust with your readers.
Illustrations
Illustrations and text work together to tell a harmonious story. Visual art draws your reader in and brings your story to life. Our experienced illustrators have created art for a multitude of genres, from juvenile readers to cartoons to sci-fi and fantasy. They listen to the author’s vision to create art together that best tells the story.
Marketing & Publicity
Writing and publishing a book is a huge accomplishment, but the work doesn’t end there. You have to promote your book so your readers can discover it. Marketing is crucial. Working with book marketing professionals who can guide you through the process, empower you with best practices, develop a marketing strategy suited to your needs and genre, and execute elements of it can make all the difference.
Printing
We partner with printers in the United States and around the world. We offer authors the option to print one book or thousands at competitive prices. For print-on-demand books, your customer pays for the printing and fulfillment in the retail price at the point of sale. At Tellwell, we are transparent about the print-on-demand cost so you can choose your suggested retail price more thoughtfully. We do not lock authors into contracts with high printing costs that force them to price their book too high.
