Booking Projects
I’m closed to new work until August 2023. Summer availability will be limited due to medical reasons. Please book early before I close.
Premade covers can be customized at any time (outside of holidays) but please allow for a week turnaround.
In general, the one thing I can squeeze in in terms of graphics is full-wrap add-ons or promos for existing clients whose ebook covers are already complete. Please allow a one- to two-week turnaround.
Editing Notice: I am only accepting editing bookings from previous editing clients. I cannot take on new clients at this time. My schedule is booked a year in advance now and as I’m working on several series, consistency is important to those clients.
Existing (and previous) clients, please book as usual. See my availability below.
2023 editing booking notice: I’m pretty much booked solid. 2024 editing booking notice: I’m generally booked January, March, May, Sept-November every year, and likely will be in 2024 as well. This means the earliest slot is April 2024 for edits.
(Note: you can book at any time. But if I’m booked solid, that means I can’t start your project until I’m done others.)
For large-scale projects, please book well in advance if possible. I only have 1-2 editing slots open a month and I won’t pencil anyone into my schedule without a down payment first unless they’re a regular client in good standing. It messes with my finances to pencil someone in and then have them not deliver the project; please book only when serious. I have several regular clients who book regular slots 12-18 months in advance, so know there is usually a long wait for editing.
Typically cover art is booked four to six weeks ahead of time, FYI
If you want something done sooner than the turn around times I project, you can inquire about a rush charge, which will vary depending on the project.
Current Email Queue
I usually answer email within one to three business days.

Some inquiries that come in Thursdays/Fridays might not be responded to until Monday or Tuesday. I do not check or answer email on weekends. You can usually look for any current availability updates at my Facebook page.
I am always unavailable weekends and Canadian holidays. Inquiries from clients go directly to my “work” folder and are not seen by me until my usual office hours. Thank you for your patience!
