My manuscript—“The Double-Edged Sword of Prescription Drugs: Understanding Possible Side Effects” by Barry Michaels DC, MPA—is edited, formatted, and waiting to go live. The only thing missing is a polished, professional cover suite that Amazon KDP will accept without a single warning.

I need a designer who knows KDP’s ever-changing specifications inside out: trim size 6 × 9 in., correct bleed settings, precise spine widths for both paperback and case-laminate hardcover, CMYK colour space, and the mandatory quiet-zone for KDP’s barcode. When I upload, the automated checker must pass all three files the first time.

Deliverables
• Press-ready PDF for the 6 × 9 paperback (front, spine, back, with blank barcode area)
• Press-ready PDF for the 6 × 9 case-laminate hardcover (adjusted board wrap, hinge, and spine)
• High-resolution JPEG of the front cover optimised for Kindle and the product page

You’re free to propose style, colour palette, typography, and imagery—just ensure the final look feels authoritative yet approachable for readers concerned about prescription drugs and side effects. If you have past KDP successes, let me know; smooth approval is my top priority.

I’ll supply the final interior page count, ISBNs, back-cover blurb, and any endorsements as soon as we start so you can calculate exact spine widths. Looking forward to seeing concepts that make this book stand out while staying 100 % within Amazon’s technical boundaries.
