Special Pages added to your book
For a very personal way to express your thoughts and feelings, you can add additional pages to any of our books or eBooks. On these Special Pages, you can write whatever you want, and we’ll lay it out so that it is in the same format as the rest of the book.
These Special Pages are perfect for any number of occasions:
• to write a longer dedication page;
• salute someone retiring;
• include a poem you've written;
• offer words of advice or sympathy;
• tell someone how very much you love them;
• commemorate a special occasion;
• express thanks to someone for being a part of your life;
• or maybe you’re looking for a very unique way to propose marriage.
You can purchase as many pages as you want to say as much as you want, and we will help you address your needs on an individual basis.
The cost for this service is $30.00 per page, and one page consists of approximately 300 words — that’s about 30 lines with 8-12 words per line. You will be surprised at how much you can fit onto one page. If you have a lot to say and need more than a couple of pages, we’d be happy to work something out with the pricing.
This is a special service that is not automated, so you and we will have to complete a couple of steps to make sure what you want to say appears in print the way you’d like it.
Here is the basic process for Special Pages:
1. Order a book or eBook online.
2. Order this service online. (either with your book order or separately)
3. Prepare the text you want inserted.
4. We’ll email or call you with instructions on how to get your text to us.
Keep in mind that this process will add more time to your book production — usually an extra day or two — but imagine the surprise your effort will create. There really is power in words.
Here is a sample of a message in Special Pages:
To my Dearest Rainey, for all the inspiration you provide me.
I wish that I had all the right words to describe what you mean to me. You are funny, smart, charming, beautiful, and the best lover I could ever have. You took a chance with me when you said, “I do.” Thanks so much for that.
You changed my life. You brought me joy. You gave me hope.
Then something happened between us, something that made you even more beautiful. On July 27, 2008 at 2:57 am, you gave birth to our beautiful 8-pound, 5-ounce, 20-inch-long baby daughter, Mary Katherine. You became more than a wife, a lover and a friend that day; you became the mother of our child.
Every day I say thanks to God for bringing you into my life. I often think of the wonderful series of coincidences and events that brought us together: a cup of coffee at 7-11, which I spilled on your shoe; a thunderstorm that kept us inside; a phone number that did not work (my sloppy handwriting); a Google search; discovering we both loved “Field of Dreams” and “Bull Durham”; a night of nothing but cuddling; a spontaneous road trip; the first time you said I love you, which made my heart want to burst; and most of all, your smile when I told you the same thing.
I wish I could be with you right now, but, Rainey, always know I think of you every moment I’m here at the base and when I’m on patrol. I hope this book helps you think of me.
Take care of our baby girl, and always remember that I will never stop loving you.
The man who can’t wait to hold you again, Bill
That’s just one example of what you can say. What additional pages are all about is having something to say that’s all your own. If you have it in you, we can add it to your book.
