Michael Vito Tosto – Designer

Quality book designs with affordable pricing. 15+ years in the business. I advise first-time authors. Let's create something great together.

Overview

Just because you're self-publishing doesn't mean your book can't look professional!

ELEVATE YOUR BOOK WITH EXPERT, PREMIUM, CRAFTED DESIGNS

With 15 years of experience in book design and publishing, I specialize in crafting high-quality covers and interiors that capture the essence of your story and engage your readers. Whether you need a striking cover that stands out on the shelf or a beautifully formatted interior that enhances readability, I bring a meticulous eye for detail, a deep understanding of typography, and a passion for bringing books to life.

I know that every book is unique, and I take the time to collaborate closely with authors to ensure their vision is fully realized. From concept to final files, I offer personalized guidance and expert consultation to create a polished, professional product that meets industry standards while reflecting your style and genre.

I still do my interiors on Word, so they have a very crafted feel. I focus on clean, reader-friendly layouts that enhance the reading experience, whether in print or digital format. My expertise spans fiction and nonfiction, classic and contemporary, and I pride myself on delivering premium results tailored to your needs.

Publishing is a competitive world, and high-quality design can make all the difference. Let’s work together to create a book that looks as good as it reads—one that stands out in bookstores and online marketplaces alike. I’m here to help you every step of the way.

Reach out today, and let’s make your book the best it can be.
