I have a freelance BOOK DESIGN studio called UNION PAGEWORKS (http://www.unionpageworks.com). I have been doing freelance design work since 1989. I mainly contract with publishers to create designs for jackets, covers, & book interiors. I am fluent in InDesign, Quark, & Photoshop; and I work on all aspects of book design & production from concept through the creation of final pre-press files.

  I met with Kate this week about designing a book cover for me. She has a very impressive portfolio. I could instantly tell that she knows what she's doing.
