In this blog post, I’ll walk you through part two of my step-by-step process on how to make a book in InDesign that will help you create a polished, print-ready book.

Have you ever wanted to publish your own book but were unsure in how to design it? Learning how to make a book in InDesign is the perfect place to start.

Today’s world is mostly digital and having an amazing website just isn’t enough. Being found is. There is no point to having a beautiful website with all your offerings, services and portfolio of projects out on display if people can’t find you.
