Professional. Magical. Indie.

Here at Kairos, our goal is to make your journey towards self-publication an enjoyable one. We offer affordable solutions for perfecting your written manuscript and creating a magical book design, working with you until you have a finished product that you love – and one that can stand proudly next to its traditionally-published counterparts.

Benita Thompson
Designer
Benita is a self-starter with a passion for beautiful books. She has self-published several of her own books and understands the intricacies of preparing a manuscript for publishing. Benita has been working in book design since 2016, has worked with Realm Award nominees, and is lead formatter/co-cover designer for Story-weaver Publishing.
