Knowledge concerning the creation of other ebook formats is a plus. Prior work with a publisher is fine, but we'd prefer the applicant not be working for another publisher while they are working for us.
Proof Reader
This position has been filled.
The job of the proof reader is to make sure the galley proofs of the book have no formatting issues. Proof readers are paid in ebooks and a small honorarium of $5 a title for their time.
Graphic Artist / Cover Artist
This position has been filled.
We are seeking someone to do cover art. Lead time for covers is typically 30 to 90 days in advance of due date. The artist works directly with the author and the Editor-in-Chief to create an appealing cover. Poser or stock photos are fine, but post-work in Photoshop or a similar program is a must. We want our covers to be unique, not yet another version of photo art that's appeared on books at two or more other publishers. Payment is negotiable. Thank you for your interest in working with Shadowfire Press.
