Introducing an editing, design and placement-with-publisher service catering to the indie, artistic or low-budget.
If you have a book you are working on or are ready to publish, I can help, at the work level and budget of your choice.
My name is Doniphan Blair. In addition to editing and publishing cineSOURCE, I have designed and edited a few books and created dozens of commercial booklets for A Media Studios.
Indeed, I just placed with a London publisher my first major book, "Love at the End of the World: Stories of War, Romance and Redemption" by Tonia Rotkopf Blair.
It provided me some in-depth experience both managing, editing and designing the book but also writing query letters and introductions, preparing presentations and promo pieces, and obtaining contacts for 140 publishers, of which almost twenty responded.
In addition, I negotiated one contract, but after contacting two lawyers specializing in publishing, a few published authors and studying various options.

I can also help you with self-publishing. What this means is designing and setting up the book for printing with one of the new, top-end, on-demand printers, where you can get a couple of copies of a regular book, including setup, for under $100, and of an art book for under $200.
After 30 years of publishing magazine articles and 12 years of publishing cineSOURCE, I got into book publishing in 2018, placed one book, created another strong contender and am working on a few more.
Given books are one of our most time consuming arts, and the last critical step is to get it out to readers, this might be a good time.
