Wondering if there any designers on here who can help with this?

I am attempting to get a book layout finished by tomorrow early afternoon but I know almost nothing about it.
So.. I need a pro to make sure everything's done properly for the printers.

The book is basically 97 short bits of writing laid out like poems / lyrics, with one per page.
Plus front / back covers and spine, all in colour. (The designs for these are done, I just need to make sure there's enough room for bleed, etc.)

I have an (incorrectly formatted) word document for the inside of the book which needs sorting out...
and I have jpegs for the covers and spine.

Anyone fancy helping? Happy to pay £50... no idea if that's fair as I have no idea how much work is involved. I'm sure people will tell me if it isn't fair!

Cheers, Gaz

I can do it but will be more than £50, that's a couple of hours work on indesign probably. £150 I guess.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
