Young
Adult Novel Package.
This package is for high-quality Young Adult Novels or 'Young Readers'.
These can be soft or hard cover books. This is the correct package for
stories of between 15,000 and 50,000 words.
All of the following
are included:
Full manuscript editing.
A complete editing of your story including grammar, spelling, plot development,
character development, and pacing. A reading level assessment is also
included with Full manuscript editing to help you better target a certain
age group.
CIP data.
This bit of information, placed on your copyright page, is helpful for
selling books to school libraries. The Library of Congress does not
furnish CIP data to self-publishers (We don't know why.). We generate
this data for you so your book isn't wrongly excluded from school libraries.
ISBN number and barcode.
We will give you a Big Tent Books ISBN number and barcode if you choose.
This may not be the best option for you but it is available to you at
no cost should you want it.
Book designer.
You will be assigned a book designer at the start of your project. Your
designer will make recommendations on the size of your book, the layout
of the book, and the placement and number of illustrations if any. Although
your book designer will make recomendations, the final decisions are
ultimately up to you. Later, when the illustrations are completed, your
designer will assemble the covers and interior of your book, preparing
it to be printed. Your book designer is an important member of your
project team which includes your editor, illustrator, book designer,
and project manager.
Project Manager.
Every book project is led by a project manager. It is your project manager's
job to know what the status of your book is and ensure that we are always
doing the best possible job for you. You can always turn to this person
with questions about your project.
15% Illustration Discount.
You get a 15% discount on the illustrations for your book, including
your cover art. The vast majority of books in this category have little
or no artwork on the inside. The little art that exists is always black
and white. The cover art is usually intense and eye-catching.
Apply for Copyright
We will apply for a copyright of your story which will help protect
you should someone infringe upon your literary rights.
5% Printing Discount.
As a 'package author' you will get a 5% discount off of our published
printing rates.
The discount applies only to Dragonpencil's printing services, though
you aren't locked in to using our printing.
Apply for PCN or LCCN
The Library of Congress issues control numbers for books prior to their
publication. This number goes on your copyright page and is sometimes
required by libraries. We will obtain this number for you.
Big Tent Book store inclusion.
If we build a website for you, Big Tent can process and ship orders
for you. Otherwise, BigTentBooks.com will always be available to you
as a bookstore customer. We will keep your book in stock and re-order
from you when we our supplies run low.
