Hi, Chris here. I am a highly-rated and popular coach/collaborator on the Reedsy platform. My specialty is helping out first-time children's picture book authors.
I have designed and illustrated many books since 2015, providing start-to-finish creative book design, illustration, technical services, project management, promotional graphics, and other self-publishing services. In 2020, I worked with seven authors to produce nine picture book titles in one year!
I got started in 2015 with a self-publishing project of my own, an artist's book titled River Journal Workshop, which earned an Amazon #1 bestseller rank in the Independent Artist category. The Kindle version has been downloaded thousands of times.
Today, I apply everything that I've learned working in self-publishing and the Reedsy platform to my Gift Booklet studio and print shop.

As a first time author, I found the perfect partner in Chris! He is a master of his technical craft with a great eye for visual storytelling. He wields these powers to bring characters & scenes to life in highly original ways. He also runs a terrific process, allowing plenty of room for creative collaboration while keeping things well organized and moving forward. Can't recommend Chris highly enough!

I was a newbie to the self-publishing, Chris was amazing helping me through each step. When we got off the track, he led the project right back where it needed to in order of the completion date. Chris welcomes my voice on creating the characters for my book and got them right. Chris was wondrous to work with, and I would use him again for additional projects.
