About Me

For the last twenty-five years, I have worked as a graphic designer and communcations specialist, both as a freelancer and in a corporate setting. In addition, I hold a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing, specializing in history and historical fiction.

I combine a unique set of skills enabling me to work with you and your book from writing to production to publication.


I create completely customized cover and interior designs, using industry-standard design and layout software and high-quality typefaces and stock photography, to make every Willow Hill Press book unique and compelling.


Your book is published under the Willow Hill Press imprint, giving your book a professional and traditional presence, but you retain all publishing rights and ownership of all files and other elements.


You retain all sales royalties and can obtain unlimited copies of your book at production pricing.


I specialize in editing and preparing for publication historic and period images, including photographs, documents, maps and more.

I look forward to working with you and your book!

Sarah Park Rankin
