SUGGESTED RESOURCES

Illustrator & Designer

Maggie Cousins is an illustrator and graphic designer with over 20 years experience. She has illustrated several children's books for members of GNYIPA as well as non members. Her work is simple, colorful and playful, because all final illustrations are digital and this means they can be reproduced in print as well as e-book. She has also designed and created book covers for members and non-members. She has also designed and created logos and have done so for many private clients. To see more of her work and find out more about Maggie please visit my website http://maggiecousins.com

CIP Data for Independent Publishers
Adrienne Bashista
http://www.cipblock.com/

An important feature that independent publishers and authors should consider including is a CIP Data Block (also known as: "Publisher's Cataloging-in-Publication Data"). The information contained in the CIP Data Block includes your book's ISBN number and several types of codes that are used by librarians for proper cataloging and shelving of books. The inclusion of a CIP Data Block can help your book's chances of being purchased by library systems because the data block relieves librarians of the work involved in trying to determine what the book's genre is and where it should be shelved. Adrienne Bashista is a professional librarian who produces a properly prepared CIP Data Block at an affordable cost. I have used Adrienne for my work and I recommend that you take a look at her website and consider hiring her for your next book.

Editor
Rachel Mann
rachelkmann@gmail.com

Rachel has very strong English skills. She reads a section to get a sense of what's being said, before inputting her suggested changes. She works in Track Changes, and she turns work around fast. Rachel communicates frequently via e-mail and she responded to my questions on grammar in a timely fashion. She has been an outstanding associate editor on my self-help book and I highly recommend her.
