My name is Dr. Kent Gustavson and I am the owner of Blooming Twig Books, a great little independent publisher. I developed The Skeleton Method to specifically work with public speakers, because speakers need a little hand-holding, and they have no lack of IDEAS and STORIES. It’s my job to add a little magic, and help those speeches, articles, ideas and stories transform into a publishable manuscript.
The Skeleton Method offers full-service and turn-key book production as well as ghostwriting and manuscript development. We specialize in award-winning cover design, interior layout, illustrations, line drawings, copy & content editing, printing & much more.
