Creating a Test Book

Creating a test book will make your publishing experience more enjoyable. 

A test book is an early version of your vision for you beautiful book. You get to see how your images, type size, layout, and paper choices actually look in the real world. It’s a new form of a working draft to Edit, flip through, make notes, and learn.  

What creative project is perfect on the first try? The painter, novelist or performer must revise, rewrite. Great work comes through revision. Our books are no different. 

First there is the vision or idea, and then the dream of what it  will look like in print? You can see it, but you’re  not quite sure how to get there.

That’s the purpose of the test book. If  you’re not sure how to create your  book you collaborate with someone who does. This collaboration is the first step in creating your artist book. The creativity of writing stories or poems continue in the form of the visualizing and organizing your dream book.

I’d be happy to offer a free consultation for you to get started on that process of visualizing your Artist book.
