KDP Publishing Specialist
Amazon
May 2021 - Present • 5 yrs 6 mos
Self-employed KDP Publishing Specialist working directly with independent authors to prepare manuscripts for Amazon publication. Over 5+ years, I've handled the full self-publishing pipeline interior formatting for print and eBook, book design (covers and layout), and ghostwriting for fiction and nonfiction authors. I format manuscripts to meet Amazon KDP's technical requirements (trim size, margins, bleed, TOC, front/back matter) so books pass review and upload cleanly the first time, while making sure the finished product looks and reads like a traditionally published book rather than a self-published one.

Rowan did an excellent job formatting my manuscript into a professional paperback for Amazon KDP. She was attentive to detail, understood the requirements, and delivered quality work. Her professionalism and expertise made the process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend her services.

Order Canceled
Terrible experience. She is not qualified at all to make a PDF project. We hired her for a planner 2027 project to change the dates and deliver a whole different thing, twice. Making us lose time to go through endless changes and not getting the job done, having to cancel the order...

Piper did an excellent job with the InDesign layout. The design was clean, professional, visually appealing, and thoughtfully arranged. Every element was well balanced, creating a polished reading experience that made the entire book look attractive, organized, and comfortable to read.

Piper did an amazing job and really understood the feel and message of my book. I’m genuinely happy with the result, it feels like the cover truly connects with the story. She was great to work with, and I’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for thoughtful, creative work.
