One key issue that authors working on a manuscript for Nimble Books need to keep in mind is that “complete” means complete, just as ”literally” means literally and “genocide” means genocide.
I won’t do anything with a manuscript until it is really, truly complete; you must have finished all the bits and pieces and you must be satisfied that the text is ready for editing. There are two main reasons for this: first, it is a much more efficient use of my time; and second, until the manuscript is “copy complete”, I can’t calculate the page length, and without the page length, I can’t calculate the spine width, which means I can’t work on the cover.
