What's it like for a songwriter like me to design a book for a Grammy-winning author who sang on a Michael Jackson album?
[SQUEEEEEE!]
Ahem—we've done a few books for Keaver Brenai, a polycreative genius who's glorious to work with. For this self-guided collections of voice lessons, we got to do the interior and cover. Don't worry, I won't squeee again.

How to be a good grandparent: supportive but not burdensome, available but not overbearing—good help always, but especially when that grandchild is diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Trish and Geri just released "Grandparent Conversations" to fill that void. How did nobody think of this sooner? Thanks you two.
This project required a lot of collaboration, and I think the end result pleased everyone, especially me.

We've designed five books for Lane Rockford Orsak. Our favorite? Any of 'em. But definitely he's our favorite customer: creative, kind, and so much fun to work for. I love this guy.
Oh yeah! His new book is now available, and we designed the interior and the eBook. Whittle, the hero, inherits property in rural Louisiana, but he uncovers instead is a buried family history that forces him to confront questions of race, art, ownership, and belonging—and alters the course of his life.

If you're old enough, you'll definitely remember the hit TV show "Movin' On." One of the three stars of the show was the Kenworth semi named Sundance, who recently celebrated turning fifty years old with a complete restoration. This delightful fan book celebrates the milestone with a ton of great photos, and includes a complete Episode Guide written by the original executive producer himself, Barry Weitz. Each show had a famous (at the time) guest star, so the insider gossip is SO MUCH FUN.
We were hired to design it, but I couldn't stop just reading it!
Warning: there's a YouTube video of the intro credits and the theme song (by Merle Haggard!), and if you play it, you'll be singing it all day.

What fun we had designing this memoir, covering the 61-year span of the Ghost Chasers. Written by the daughter of one founder after discovering a trove of memorabilia. Gritty, dirty, Midwestern good times and good people. Find it on Amazon in print and eBook.

Congratulations to David Barnes on publishing his first collection of quirky short stories. We had great fun designing the interior and cover, and eBook edition to match. It took us longer than usual because we kept stopping to read it.

Gary Koenig gives us a lot of latitude when designing his books, and we have so much fun! His latest is even set in our hometown! (Albeit before our time, but still...) Just released in paperback and eBook!

Congratulations to John Banta! His epic reference book Mold Controlled just got the highest rating from both IngramSpark and Amazon! This might have been the most intense project we've worked on, so we share your pride!

Not surprised to see The Street King by Mike Ludden score a perfect 5 Stars on Amazon after so many reviews. This is the fourth book we've designed for Mr. Ludden, and it's hard to keep our mind on the artwork when his dialogue is SO GOOD. https://www.amazon.com/Street-King-Drawdy-Mystery-mysteries/dp/1626601739

Headline in the Washington Post today: "Man arrested at Yellowstone for allegedly kicking bison while drunk"
Dumb and mean, sure. But in the first place, how did the bison get drunk?

Congratulations to Lane Akin! We were excited to be chosen to design the interior, the cover, and the eBook edition of The Point, and we think we did it justice. He told us he spent 20 years writing this thriller, based on his true-life experience as one of the Texas undercover agents fighting the m**h lab outbreak of the 80s and 90s.

Clandestine m**hamphetamine labs crept into Texas during the latter half of the 20th century, but certain members of the Texas Department of Public Safety’s Narcotics Division were hellbent on stopping the malicious tide. Agents Dan Allen and his rookie partner, Kate Starnes, encountered a multi.....
