Your story deserves to become a real book.

Check your manuscript first

This package is for a complete, already-edited text manuscript with a straightforward layout. Writing, substantial editing, illustrated books, complex layouts and manuscripts over 100,000 words need a separate quote. Printed copies are not included.

You confirm eligibility below, then pay securely. After payment, share your book details and manuscript so we can prepare your publishing files.

If your project needs something different, ask about a separate quote before paying.

Your manuscript and package scope

Your account. Your royalties.

You keep control of your KDP account and make the final submission yourself, with our guidance. Never share your password or payment details with us. LaunchCraft takes no share of your royalties; Amazon’s royalty rules and applicable deductions still apply.

A service fee, not a KDP fee.

KDP itself is free. The US$199 pays for LaunchCraft’s preparation and guidance. Amazon decides acceptance and review timing. Publication, sales and rankings are not guaranteed. Read about publishing with KDP

A finished book needs more than pages.

THE MANUSCRIPT

  • Consistency and pacing review
  • Language edit and proofing

Start at your stage

We meet you where the book is — even if it is only an idea.

US$69 / START

Clarify the idea

A book premise, audience map, chapter snapshot, author bio, description or other single useful starting asset.

US$123 / BUILD

Make the book clearer

A small connected set such as an outline, positioning, sample direction, description and visual starting point.

US$209 / LAUNCH

Invite readers in

A coordinated starter set of launch content such as graphics, captions, a short video or a book-launch plan.

These US$69, US$123 and US$209 creative packages cover smaller agreed projects and launch assets. They are separate from the US$75 manuscript service and US$199 Book Publishing Package. Work outside each package’s agreed scope is quoted separately.

Our book-production workflow

We do not rush a big story into a small process.

01 / POSITION

We establish the book's place.

Genre, readers, tone, length and purpose are clarified so the project has a clear direction before pages begin.

02 / OUTLINE

We build the spine of the book.

We create a story arc or chapter plan, key themes and character structure where relevant, then develop an early sample for approval.

03 / DEVELOP

We build in agreed batches.

Manuscript work is organised into manageable stages with checks for consistency, pacing, repetition, chronology and readability.

04 / PREPARE

We make it ready for readers.

After agreed review and editing, we prepare the publication files and any cover, description, author bio or promotional assets in the quote.

YOUR BOOK CAN START WITH A SENTENCE

Tell us the story that has been living in your head.

We will help you choose a sensible first step — from a book concept or outline to a full manuscript and launch plan.
