    Hello,

    I have a book that has 9 colour images in it and across the pages it contains coloured clip arts. It is aimed for children aged 6 -9.

    1. Would you publish this kind of book. I would like to include all the marketing and choose to suscribe the 14.99/month plan.

    2. If you publish this kind of book when it is ready would I be able to buy or order it from you in some quantities at a time.

    3. Would you give sample books out?

    Would you please clarify for me how the publishing process how it works. Example, copy editing? proof reading? Sales? etc..

    I look forward to hearing from you soon.

    Thank you!

    Tsehay

      Hope you get some answers to this soon. I don’t have a need for colour illustrations as yet but may do for a future project. Best of luck with it!

      Hi all,

      This answer talks a bit more about printing in colour. We can currently only do this if you can print 100 copies or more and the price will depend a lot on the book properties.

      However, an issue for you is that it sounds like you would only want a small number of pages and the books that we usually offer have to be 56 pages or more to work with the bindings that the print-on-demand printers use. There may be a possibility of organising something different with the printers but this would involve more substantial set-up costs as we would need to manually adjust files and liaise with printers.

      If you are interested in that we can get a quote for you. You can contact us using the contact form on this page.

      Completelynovel is designed as a self-service website so for the most part our authors proof-read and edit themselves, however we do offer a number of site services. You can fill in the form at the bottom of that page explaining exactly what you need and we will get back to you with a quote.
