Should You Hire a FORMATTER, DESIGNER, or ART DIRECTOR For Your Children's Book?
Download the Intro Chapter for my new book for indie authors: https://www.indieauthorsdozen.com If you're self-publishing your first children's book, you may not know whether you should hire a formatter, book designer, or art director for your book. I see many authors get confused on what these roles are, and how their illustrator is involved—can't the illustrator do it all? In this video, I'll explain the differences between the roles of formatter, designer, and art director and why it's absolutely necessary to have a designer on your self-publishing team to help you create the book of your dreams. As a fellow author, book designer, and publishing coach, my passion is helping fellow authors create uplifting, life-giving, and successful books that kids will love and adults will cherish.
