I help independent authors, publishers, and creative entrepreneurs take their books from manuscript to masterpiece. ABOUT ME

I’m Sarah Beaudin, a freelance book designer from Canada who has recently run away with the circus. I operate my design studio out of a suitcase, affording me a unique perspective on current global trends in both graphic design and storytelling. I have clients across the gl

obe but I love working locally whenever I can, engaging with the communities I visit. While I provide a variety of design services (including self-publishing packages and marketing design), my specialty is book design. I have ten years of design experience, and I’ve created over 100 covers. I stand proudly by the fact that people do judge books by their covers, which has a direct influence on sales. If you would like to know more, or if you’re ready to get started on your project, please get in touch.

What punctuation mark are you?

If I could choose I would be an em dash — versatile, playful, interrupting, a little informal, and never to be confused with an en dash. My editor friends may disagree, but I think it's use (or misuse) is more a matter of taste than a hard rule, making it a designer's best friend.

The Great Wall of China is at the top of every tourists' must-see list while they're in the Beijing area... but only because they haven't yet heard about "The Eye of Binhai" in Tianjin.

I am counting down the days until I move to Beijing so that I can bask in the glory of this beautiful new library.

Rotterdam-based firm MVRDV has unveiled a massive library with out-of-this world glowing, undulating interiors in the Binhai district in Tianjin, China.
