Software

  • Milanote

    A digital note card board for planning and organizing creative projects.

    I use this every single day.

    Formatting software to create beautiful ebooks and print books with ease.

    I use it to format all my books.

Tools

  • Universal Book Link

    A free page listing every retail link for your book in all available formats.

    I use for all my book buy links.

  • Pirate Ship

    Discounted shipping labels through USPS and others.

    I used it to ship domestic and International ARC boxes affordably.

Physical ARCs

  • 48 Hour Books

    Custom book printers for bulk ordering high quality books needing a turn around.

    I printed my hardcover ARCs to make a tight deadline and they are the nicest prints.

  • Arka Packaging

    Customize designed eco-friendly packing material for products and for shipping.

    Where I buy my custom ARC PR mailer boxes from.

Publishing Distribution

  • IngramSpark

    Beautiful print paperbacks and hardcovers with hardcover option for dust jackets.

    I use for all my print books except the Amazon Paperback copies. (Those are KDP because they pay more. But IngramSpark does the Amazon Hardcover for the dust jacket.)

  • Draft2Digital

    Ebook distribution for all digital retailers through one account for convenience.

    I use for all my ebooks except the Kindle copies. (Those are KDP because they pay more.) I use D2D for ebook copies over Ingramspark because they pay more with better customer support.
