Step 1: You email me with an idea of what you are looking for (see price-guide below).
Step 2: I propose a project, and a price.
Step 3: We coordinate on your aesthetic vision for the book: favorite colors, etc.
Step 4: You drop off the book and pay me the first 1/3 as an installment.
Step 5: I bind the book and mail it back to you.
Step 6: Once you receive it, you pay me the remainder of the balance.
