The process
How a publishing project moves
Six stages, each with a clear handoff, so you always know where your book stands.
- 01
Tell Us About Your Project
Share where your manuscript or idea stands today and what you hope to publish.
- 02
Consultation & Project Planning
We define scope, formats, specifications, and the sequence of work together.
- 03
Design & Production
Interior design, cover design, and formatting are produced to specification.
- 04
Review & Refinement
You review proofs and we refine until the details are right.
- 05
Publication Preparation
Final print-ready and digital files are assembled for your chosen platform.
- 06
Launch
Promotional materials and launch collateral bring the finished work to readers.
Platform preparation
Files prepared for the platform you publish on
LCM prepares interiors, covers, and digital editions to meet the submission requirements of the platform you choose.
An important distinction
Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and similar services are independent third-party platforms. LCM does not own, operate, control, or speak for them. LCM prepares your files to their published requirements and guides you through submitting them; your account and your rights remain yours.
