A Note About Interior Formatting

Manuscripts that need extensive formatting require extra work and quality assurance from our staff. Examples of extensive formatting include the use of subheads, screenplay formatting, end notes, repeated indented quotations, and so on. If you think your manuscript might require special formatting, please contact us. We're happy to discuss your needs and possible solutions.
