I'm happy to announce that "Thinking Like™ a Designer" is now available at CreateSpace:
https://www.createspace.com/3462255
You can also search through other retail outlets like Amazon.com. using ISBN 9781453639276
This book is written for the client who works directly with a designer rather than going through a publisher or editorial staff. The subtitle is "How to save money by being a smart client," and that's the main benefit of the book.
(Actually, although it's addressed to the client, it's really helpful for the designer who works directly with client-authors with limited experience in publishing. Buy a copy--or two, or ten!--and lend it to a deserving client when the project arises.)
"Thinking Like a Designer" covers the range of topics from starting the writing process, contacting the designer, setting up a schedule, making sure all the right things are included in the materials that go to the designer--and perhaps most important, proofreading! Don't miss "The Football Game" on pp. 16-17.
Scheduled for later this year: "Thinking Like™ an Editor" and "Thinking Like™ a Printer."
