Our Services
Boutique publishing tailored for authors and readers who cherish thoughtful stories. At Cypress and Sage Press, LLC, we offer flexible, affordable self-publishing services, editing, formatting, design, and personalized self-publishing instruction, plus selective traditional publishing under three imprints. No cookie-cutter packages. No hidden fees. Just real support for the stories the world needs now.
Manuscript Review & Book Editing Services
Every great book begins with honest feedback. We offer developmental editing, line editing, and final proofreading tailored to your genre and audience — from picture books and poetry to Southern gothic, memoir, fantasy, and Christian nonfiction. We identify growth areas, strengthen your voice, and prepare your manuscript for Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, and beyond
Book Design & Formatting
Your cover is your first promise to a reader. We create high-impact cover design and professional interior layouts that meet industry standards for print and ebook. Whether you need a poetry collection layout, an illustrated children’s book, or a devotional journal, we ensure your book looks beautiful on the shelf and reads cleanly on every device. Original illustration available for Layla Bean Kids projects — custom quoted.
Publishing Made Simple
We walk authors through the process from manuscript to marketplace, including ISBNs, formatting, distribution, pricing, royalties, KDP, IngramSpark, and more. Whether you want to publish independently or simply understand your options, we give you the knowledge to make informed decisions and maintain control of your work.
