THE UPLOAD METHOD: Work Off-Line via our Templates
Â
SOME of our authors like to work on their own. They have their own way of doing things. They have meticulously selected their font, looked at margin structures and page layouts. They have designed their chapter headings and had a colleague or friend design the book cover for them. They have done all the requisite spelling and fact checks. Copy-edits are done and their manuscript has been professionally edited...
