Practical author platform creation
and promotional support
for your book
Writing and publishing a book is a major achievement, but it doesn't automatically mean people will find your work.
Promotion is often the hardest part of being an author. There are no shortcuts and no guarantees. But you can give yourself a much stronger starting point by making sure your author platform, book materials and promotional assets look professional, consistent and credible.
This is where WKW Productions can help.
I offer practical support for authors who want to present themselves and their books properly, without feeling overwhelmed by websites, design, print materials or the basic building blocks of promotion.
The aim isn't to promise sales. It's to help you give your book the best possible chance. I can include some or all elements of these services in my main Indie Publishing packages. Ask me for a quote.
Here are some of the ways I can help…
AUTHOR BASICS WEBSITE
For authors who need a simple, professional online home.
An author website doesn't need to be complicated, but it does need to be clear, credible and easy to update. It should tell people who you are, what you've written, where they can buy your book, and how they can stay in touch.
My Author Basics website service is designed for writers who want a clean, professional site without trying to build everything themselves.
I set up and create a website using the popular and accessible Squarespace platform. The basic package includes:
a simple author homepage
book pages
about page
contact page
buy links
basic search engine considerations
clear navigation and structure
Squarespace setup and handover guidance
This is not about building a huge, complicated website. It's about giving you a solid author platform you can actually use.

BOOK DESCRIPTIONS & AUTHOR BIOS
For authors who need clear, professional copy around their book.
Many writers find it difficult to describe their own work. You may know your book inside out, but that doesn't always make it easy to explain quickly and clearly to a potential reader.
I can help with practical author and book copy, including:
Amazon book descriptions
short book descriptions
back cover copy
author bios
website copy
launch page copy
short promotional summaries
The goal is to make the book sound clear, professional and appealing without overselling it or making claims that don't fit the work.

IMPRINT LOGOS OR AUTHOR IDENTITY BRANDING
For authors who want their book to feel more professional and consistent.
Some independent authors choose to publish under their own imprint name, especially if they want their book to look less like a one-off self-published project. Others simply need a cleaner, more consistent visual identity across their website, book files and promotional materials.
I can help with:
simple imprint logos
author branding basics
consistent colour and type choices
book mock-ups
basic visual identity for author websites and materials
print-ready logo files for book covers where needed
This is not full corporate branding. It's practical, author-focused design support to help your book and platform look more polished.

PRINTED PROMOTIONAL MATERIALS
For authors attending launches, talks, events or book fairs.
Printed materials can still be useful, especially if you're speaking to readers face to face, selling books directly, or attending events where you need something professional to hand out or display.
I can design practical promotional materials such as:
bookmarks
postcards
roller banners
posters
flyers
event signage
simple reader handouts
These can be designed to match your book cover, author website or imprint identity, giving everything a more consistent and professional feel.

LAUNCH & ONLINE ASSETS
For authors who need simple digital materials to support a book launch or relaunch.
You don't need endless graphics, but having a small set of useful assets can make it easier to talk about your book online and point people in the right direction.
This can include:
book cover mock-ups
launch graphics
quote graphics
website banners
newsletter graphics
social media profile or header images
simple promotional images for events, talks or announcements
The focus is on useful, practical assets rather than creating content for the sake of it.
