Do you often feel isolated as a book designer?
Do you wish you had a mentor or trusted community to turn to for support and guidance?
You're not alone — and it's time to create something new, together.
I've been a full-time book designer for 15 years—the last decade of which I’ve been a freelancer and solopreneur. I've loved helping countless authors bring their visions to life.
But through it all, I've felt firsthand just how isolating and challenging this career path can be. (Although, it’s exciting and liberating too.)
That’s why I’m thrilled to tell you about the Book Designer Collective—an exclusive membership created just for book designers, where you can:
✅️ Connect with other book designers in a private community—without the competition mindset
✅️ Expand your skills and elevate the quality of your services
✅️ Break free from isolation and thrive in a passionate book design community, with people who actually get it
✅️ Elevate the quality of self-published books and better serve you clients—creating a more fulfilling and rewarding career
Sound good?

Hey, I'm Rachel—book designer, entrepreneur, and dog + horse mom.
For over 15 years, I've been deep in the world of book design. I started as an employee and worked for two different publishers, then transitioned to freelancing in 2015, and finally founded Printed Page Studios in 2021, where I focus on working one-on-one with self-publishing, nonfiction authors.
I've had the privilege of helping countless authors transform their dreams into beautifully crafted books, but along the way, I discovered a challenge that many freelance book designers face: isolation and the lack of a supportive community.
For years, I longed for a place where I could get help, where I could connect and collaborate with other book designers—a place that simply didn’t exist.
The Book Designer Collective is my way of turning this vision into reality—and I invite you to join me in building a community where we all thrive.
When I'm not designing books, I'm likely reading a book, riding my horse, Chance, or walking my dog, Roo :)
I simply cannot wait to meet you inside the community. 💫
—Rachel
