I've been using and teaching book formatting for years, but it's always been a messy, complex, anxiety-inducing process... even when you know what you're doing (and I remember spending days pulling out my hair trying to learn how to do book and ebook formatting from scratch.)
So I've been Vellum-curious for years. I knew it produced great looking books; that everybody loved it; that it was easy to use. But I could never try it out, because I'm a PC user and it's only for Mac. So today I finally went down the rabbit hole of "renting" space on a Mac device online, so I could run the software and format a book. Overall, I'm pretty excited about it. This first video is just short and quick, showing you how to sign up and get started; I have a longer video on using Vellum here:

Hey there - I'm Derek Murphy. I'm a fine artist who became a book cover designer, then started writing young adult scifi and fantasy. I've spent almost 20 years living abroad, have a PhD in comparative literature (revolutionary politics in Paradise Lost), and have been featured in CNN for renting castles to use as writing retreats. Although I'm not working with clients anymore, I've built a ton of resources to help indie authors write, design and publish bestselling books.
On this channel, I talk about writing, publishing and creating personal freedom with unconventional business strategies and providing value. My videos are unpolished and a little raw, because we travel full-time and I focus on content, not production quality.
