blank slate communications
Blank Slate Communications is our creative family’s LLC. We offer design, editing, and some marketing services to authors, and several of our books are published under the Layla Dog Press imprint, hence the doggie icon. Sadly, Layla has journeyed over the rainbow bridge, but we still love her and think about her every day!

design
I’ve designed over 150 book covers and have done at least that many interior layouts—as both a freelance cover designer and in my role as designer for Amphorae Publishing Group, a traditional small press I co-founded in 2014 and for which I’ve served as designer and editor.
Also we’ve designed marketing collateral and online ads, including for social media campaigns and BookBub promotions.
editing
The Makansi crew has well over twenty years of experience writing and editing fiction and non-fiction, and we offer both developmental and line editing.
You can learn more about books i’ve edited at Amphorae Publishing Group.
*Note: we are not proofreaders.
marketing support
BSC provides both traditional and self-published authors with design and campaign advertising and marketing support. Our team has years of experience in social media marketing/advertising across platforms, including Amazon ad campaigns.
