Been working with a lot of up and coming artists lately, and I'm seeing a need that needs to be filled. I've advised a number of webcomic artists to put their series or comic strips in print. Many don't have the time or the expertise to set up their work for print!
That's where my 15+ years of graphic design/prepress expertise comes in. My House of the Muses miniseries is now at Book Four, due to go to print in early June. I've published my books through Ka-Blam.com digital print-on-demand and my series is now in paperback through IngramBook. My books are now available at Barnes&Noble.com and Amazon.com worldwide.
Consultation for quotes:
1. What kind of book are you printing? Would it be better in comic or paperback?
2. Color or Black and white? Number of pages?
The number of pages allows me to quote you according to my per page fee, plus shipping and handling if required.



3. I will not be able to ink or color your book. If the art you supply is too low a resolution, (72 dpi web as opposed to 300 dpi+ for print) you may have to ship your originals for scanning and have them recolored.
4. I can submit your finished book to POD outlet of your choice. Account registration and printing fees will apply.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: For someone like me who has lived in the world of non-print, what does "prepress" mean? And, how may I use your services?
A: I format comic pages for print. There are standard book sizes depending on what people want, and many aren't sure how to set up their books. I can set up books for comic strip and comic book sizes. The fee depends on how much work is involved in my assembling the books. I can scan artwork, format it in 300 dpi and other print specs and assemble it in the book templates. AND submit it to press for you.
Q: Got it. Prepress is page set up. I do everything digitally, so no scanning.
A: No problem! I can handle digital files, too if you have those ready and want to print. Submit your work to me on a CD and I can handle the rest!
