Laura Jones-Rivera is an award-winning specialist in book typesetting, production management and a publishing consultant.

The services

Typesetting / ebook creation

Having typeset hundreds of books in my near decade in publishing, I can typeset your novel/collection/non-fiction with skill and efficiency, no matter the complexity, and provide an ebook based on my typeset if you need one. I use InDesign and can provide all native files where necessary and any follow up support, such as preparing for print.

We have entrusted Laura with our typesetting work since day one. She is highly efficient, responsive, accurate and quick to use her own initiative. She provides all this, combined with a high level of service, at a very reasonable price.
