Prepare Your Manuscript for Publication

Publishing a book involves more than uploading a manuscript. The interior file, cover, book description, author details, categories, keywords and selected publication format must be prepared according to the requirements of the chosen publishing platform.

Craft Mind Innovations provides structured publishing assistance for authors who want professional support while retaining involvement in the decisions affecting their books. Our team can assist with manuscript preparation, formatting, cover-file coordination, metadata development and submission support for selected third-party self-publishing platforms.

Craft Mind Innovations is operated by Craftmind Innovations LLC, a Texas limited liability company. The legal company is responsible for customer agreements, billing, project coordination, delivery and applicable customer support.

How Our Publishing Process Works

A structured workflow from consultation through platform submission assistance.

What We Need From You

To complete the publishing process efficiently, clients may be required to provide:

  • Final or near-final manuscript
  • Correct title and subtitle
  • Author or pen-name information
  • Author biography
  • Book description or source information
  • Final approval of edited text
  • Final approval of the cover
  • Ownership or authorised use of supplied content
  • Publishing-platform account access or participation, where necessary
  • Timely feedback and approvals

Clients are responsible for confirming that they have the legal right to publish all text, images, illustrations, quotations and other materials they provide. Any delays in receiving required information, approvals or account access may affect the estimated completion timeline.

What You May Receive

Depending on your written proposal and selected services, deliverables may include:

  • Formatted eBook file
  • Print-ready paperback interior
  • Print-ready hardcover interior, where applicable
  • Platform-compliant cover file
  • Book-description copy
  • Suggested categories and keywords
  • Publication metadata document
  • Submission-support documentation
  • Approved final project files
  • Technical publication assistance

The exact file types, number of formats and included services will be identified in the proposal before payment and project commencement.

Your Publishing Rights and Accounts

Subject to full payment and the applicable written agreement, clients receive the agreed rights to custom final deliverables created specifically for their project.

Third-party assets—including licensed fonts, stock images, templates and platform tools—remain subject to their respective licence terms.

Where practical, the client should maintain ownership and control of their publishing-platform account. Royalties generated through a client-owned publishing account are generally administered by the applicable third-party platform under that platform’s terms.

Customized Publishing Quotations

Publishing costs depend on factors such as:

  • Manuscript length
  • Manuscript condition
  • Editing requirements
  • Number of book formats
  • Interior complexity
  • Cover requirements
  • Illustration requirements
  • Selected publishing platforms
  • Requested timeline
  • Additional marketing or production services

After reviewing your project, we provide a written quotation describing the selected services, deliverables and price. Any advertised starting price applies only to the services expressly identified in the applicable offer. Additional editing, design, illustration, formatting, platform fees, printing charges or third-party services may be quoted separately.

Who controls my publishing account?

The agreed account arrangement should be confirmed before submission. Where practical, we recommend that clients maintain ownership and control of their publishing-platform accounts.

Royalties associated with a client-owned platform account are ordinarily managed and paid by the third-party platform according to its terms. The applicable arrangement must be described in the project agreement.

Do you provide an ISBN?

ISBN assistance depends on the selected publishing platform, format and service package. The source and ownership of any ISBN should be explained before publication.
