Frequently Asked Questions
How Much Does it Cost?
Illustrations are $40.00 each or we have a standard package that includes 8 illustrations and story writing for $265.00. You can decide if you want 8 illustrations for one story, 8 individual stories with 1 illustration each, or any other combination.
How Long Does it Take
Great work takes time. But, not as much time as you think. We have about a 3 week turnover time for our 8 illustration package. It takes about 48 hours per illustration and then we need time to format your story, have you review the final copy, and get it to you.
How Much Material do You Need?
Surprisingly little. We can work with a phone call where you just tell us the story. If you want to send an email with an already written story, pictures, and additional resources, that helps with accuracy and efficiency, but it isn’t required. Please don’t feel like you are required to research every fact and have every detail perfect before you talk to us. Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
Do We Print Books?
To keep prices as low as possible, printing books is not included in our standard package. We do have a list of businesses that can print your book and would be more than happy to help you set up printing services.
How Can I Get a Wood Cover?
Yes! We custom make our wood covers and they are $60.00 each. We include our family storybook logo, but if you have another image, you would like engraved on the front, we can do just about anything.
Where Can I Find Examples of Your Work?
You can find them here on my website or by clicking the link to my storybook. I send out a new version of my book as a Christmas present every year to my family so you can download and review the latest stories and art I have included.
We make short, narrated videos of stories as well. Visit our YouTube Chanel for a few examples. If you are interested in turning your story into a video, reach out and we can talk about timing and pricing.
