The Difference
Publishing alone, or with a team that cares.
You can do all of this yourself. Most authors do not want to spend months learning how, and AI can help you make more errors faster.
Self publishing alone
- Guessing at trim sizes and print specs
- Templates that make your book look like AI slop
- Rejected files and re-uploads
- Figuring out ISBNs and accounts by yourself
- Wondering if it looks professional
- Wishing you had real people to read it and give you feedback
- Asking AI for help, then feeling overwhelmed by tons of files sitting in a folder
Publishing with CDM
- Built with people who care
- Built with a creative director and an editor who speaks, reads, and writes in multiple languages

We shape your manuscript into a book.
We start with the heart of your book: what is its purpose? Then we map out the structure, the trim size, and the format, so every decision after this one is easy.

- A clear plan from day one
02 · Design

We work together to find the best platform for your vision. Your book, your accounts, your ISBNs. You keep your rights and your royalties.

Beyond the Book
You write. We handle the content.
Publishing is only the beginning. We create and deliver the content behind your book, so you can spend your time writing and connecting with your community.
Why Work With Us
Print production experience behind every project.
Our founder spent years as the Art Director of national magazines, handling covers, layouts, photography, and print production on monthly deadlines, working alongside editors, sales reps, and marketing teams. That same attention to detail goes into every book, journal, and magazine we produce, from the first layout to the final print ready file.

Our Own Proof
We produced our own book, start to finish.
Done Proving is a ten chapter book written to help creatives break free from lies. We created it and published it on Amazon KDP in two days. With a background in print production and a team of creatives who love what they do, we bring that same focus to getting your book out as soon as possible.

Questions
A few questions and answers before we start.
Do I keep ownership of my book?
Yes. Your book, your accounts, your ISBNs. You keep your rights and your royalties.
Do I need a finished manuscript?
No. You can come with just an idea, and we will create the vision and build the plan together.
Where will my book be sold?
There are many publishing platforms. We will talk through what you envision for your book or books, then choose the best platform for each.
What do you design?
Print and digital design for books, magazines, and journals, from cover and interior to formatting and publishing setup. Illustrators on our team also create infographics, illustrations, and more to support your author brand.
How long does it take?
It depends on your project. We set a clear timeline together on your discovery call.
What does it cost?
Every project is different, so we quote after we learn about yours. Start with the short questionnaire and we will follow up with a discovery call.
