1. Sign the Author Agreement

  • This outlines your rights and how the process works.

  • Please complete the form below, and we will email you a copy of the Author Agreement for your review and signature.

    If you already have a dedicated author email you'd like to use for this project, please provide it now.
    If not, reach out to us—we’ll assist you in setting one up.

    It’s important that your author work is handled through a separate email address, as we will need access to it throughout the publishing process for coordination, file submissions, and account setup. Once your project is fully completed, ownership of the email account will be transferred back to you, and we will relinquish all access.

Phone *
We will only contact you on an as needed basis. Most of our contact will be via email, zoom, or if preferred texting on occasion. You will have full access to us as you need, during normal working hours.
Address *
This will be how we send our welcome kit, set up your legal account for publishing, send copies of your books, swag, etc. that may be purchased. Your privacy is very important to us we will not share any information with anyone else.
If you do not have a title yet, just put (Working Title) in this space.

We will send you the contract shortly!

2. Choose your Illustrator

Take your time exploring—each profile includes a clickable graphic that you can enlarge for a closer look at their work. Get familiar with their styles and see who best fits your vision. This is a BIG step and we want you to be completely confident in your decision!

If you have questions or would prefer to wait for guidance before making a decision, feel free to wait for our call.

3. Complete the Project Form

Name *
If you do not have a title yet just put (Working Title) in this space
Size Desired for Book *
We have done the hard work for you and have chosen the BEST size options based on what is the most popular and available for print. If you are still unsure about what you want or you want another size that isn't listed then click (UNSURE) and we discuss it at our meeting.
Do you have a color pallet in mind? *
This is a crucial part of the process. It helps the illustrator and me narrow down what specific style you are going for! If you have one please let me know, otherwise we can discuss this in our call.
Please provide your first, second, and third choices. We will do our best to pair you with your preferred illustrator based on your selections and their availability.
If there is nothing specific to the questions above, please leave blank. We will be emailing you shortly to schedule a zoom call and chat about everything moving forward!

We will be emailing you soon to schedule your zoom meetup and discuss the next steps moving forward!
