Now for the Other Shoe-Adobe InDesign Templatesīut even with all the great feedback, and the expansion of our brand into lots of other templates and a growing number of tools for authors, I was still waiting to realize my original dream.
Over the last 21 months thousands of authors have used our Word templates to do their own formatting, at a fraction of the price it would cost to hire a typesetter.Įvery month we get contacted by authors who are just thrilled at the ease with which they can now create industry-standard print and ebooks without having to take a college level course in book design and construction.

It wasn’t until 2013 when I connected with my associate Tracy Atkins that we were able to change the self-publishing world with the launch of our BookDesignTemplates site. It was back in 2010 when I first started thinking about providing do-it-yourself authors with the tools to produce professional quality books on their own, using professional quality tools.īut life never works out the way you think it’s going to, does it? Despite lots of discussion, plans, and a lot of work, nothing happened for years.
