Publishing Guidance & Book Planning
Practical support before you publish your book.
For authors who need help reviewing their options, planning the next steps,
or preparing for publication before committing to a full book design package.
Publishing a book involves more decisions than most authors expect: editing, cover design, formatting, ISBNs, print files, metadata, Amazon setup, pricing, categories, and launch materials.
These guidance packages are for authors who want help understanding the process, reviewing their options, and deciding what to do next before moving forward.
If you need the book fully designed, formatted, and prepared for publication, please see the full book editions.
This is for you if:
​
✓ You have written a book, or are nearly finished, but are not sure what comes next
✓ You want to publish professionally without wasting time, money, or energy on the wrong steps
✓ You feel unsure about editing, design, formatting, Amazon setup, metadata, or launch materials
✓ You want experienced guidance before hiring different people or committing to a full book package
✓ You would like a practical publishing plan based on your book, goals and current stage
Why Work With Me?
​
I am Nada Orlic, the designer behind Erelis Design. I have spent more than 20 years designing books for self-published authors, independent creators and publishing clients around the world, with more than 4,000 covers completed.
​
My background is in book cover design, publishing design and author presentation, so I look at a book from both a visual and practical point of view. I can help you understand what your book needs next, what may be missing and which steps are worth taking before you spend money on editing, formatting, upload help, or promotion.
​
These guidance packages are not generic advice. They are based on your book, your goals and the stage your project is in. You receive honest feedback, practical next steps and support from someone who has worked closely with authors through many different publishing situations.
If you are not sure what to do next, this gives you a more grounded way to move forward before committing to a full book package or hiring several different people.
Client Feedback
Bill Hutton,
UK author
​Nada isn't just an amazing specialist book cover designer, she has taught me so many helpful things and guided me through the process of self publishing which I wouldn't have had a clue about. She is truly a kind and passionate person who really wants your book to succeed. I can't recommend her highly enough.
Ann Harris,
Australian author
"Nada was an absolute pleasure to work with. As this was my first time creating a book cover, I had a lot to learn. Nada was incredibly patient and supportive throughout the entire process. She went above and beyond - not only delivering a beautifully designed book cover but also offering valuable advice and guidance on other book related aspects. Her expertise and willingness to share insights made the experience as smooth as possible. I highly recommend Nada to anyone looking for a skilled and reliable book designer.
Emmanuelle Blanc,

This was my first time creating book covers, and Nada made the process exciting and meaningful. She allowed me the freedom to explore possibilities, guiding me with gentle support and care. This process was deeply personal, involving years of work, and Nada brought it to life with grace and respect.
I followed my intuition and WOW. Nada is your creative ally, the one who will transform your vision into something extraordinary.
Frequently Asked Questions
​
Do I have to use all the services in a package?
No. Each package is flexible. You stay in control and choose the services that fit your goals. I am here to support you, not to take over.
​
Can I upgrade later if I start with a smaller package?
Yes. If you begin with the workbook or email support and later decide you need more help, you can upgrade by simply paying the difference.
​
Is cover design included in these packages?
No. These packages focus on publishing guidance. If you need a custom cover, I offer that separately through my book cover design services.
​
What if I already have an editor or formatter?
That is great. I will coordinate with your professionals or recommend trusted colleagues if you need help finding someone.
​
How long does the support last?
Email and full-service packages include guidance and replies for up to four weeks after purchase. Most authors find that is enough to complete key publishing steps. If you need more time or support later, you are always welcome to book a follow-up.
