About the Founder

You Wrote the Book — I Help Authors Bring It to Life

I’m Frank Deardurff III, and I’ve been designing, publishing, and marketing for nearly 30 years. I’ve helped bestselling authors, built high-converting websites, and created graphics that move books. I’ve been on both sides of publishing — traditionally published and self-published — and I know what it takes to make a book stand out.

You don’t need a publisher’s approval to publish like a pro. You just need the right design, layout, and platform. That’s what Author Design Studio is here to help you do.

You Only Get One First Impression—Make It Unforgettable
