Purple Works Press is a boutique, full-service creative agency. We specialize in writing, editing, book publishing, design, publicity, and digital content.
How we can help you
WRITING & EDITORIAL SERVICES
Ghostwriting
While we believe everyone has a story in them, not everyone feels they have the confidence to tell it in their own words. Nathan and Sarah have ghostwritten articles, memoirs, business content. How do we become you? It starts with a phone call.
Developmental & Substantive Editing
Some manuscripts need more love than others. Allow the experienced editors of Purple Works Press to provide a deep structural editing for clarity, flow, organization, and narrative strength.
Copyediting & Proofreading
We all need a little help to clean up for grammar, consistency, and accuracy.
Children’s Book Editing
We specialized in editorial support for picture books, early readers, and middle-grade storytelling.
BOOK PUBLISHING & PRODUCTION
Independent & Boutique Publishing
We aren't a vanity publisher. We don't accept every manuscript that is submitted. The genre of the book is as important as feeling that the author client and the team will have a good rapport. For more about our process, see our about page.
ISBN Setup & Metadata
Leave it to us to ensure your books have the proper ISBN registration, imprint setup, copyright and distribution-ready metadata.
Interior Layout & Book Design
A book's cover has the power to result in a sale or to be placed back on the shelf. Our designers are highly experienced (combined, over 40 years) to ensure yours gets placed in the basket.
Illustration Coordination
The right illustrator can give true context to your words. If you have an illustrator you want to work with, great! If you want us to look for one, we're happy to that as well.
Print & Distribution Support
We ensure that the layout and book cover are ready for IngramSpark, Amazon/KDP, and international distribution channels.
