Wish to Self-Publish?
Self-published books now account for over half of all books published in America. This amounts to a revolution in the publishing industry.
Self-publishing
has had a long and distinguished
history in this country. Some of our greatest writers—including
Walt Whitman, Henry David Thoreau, Gertrude Stein, and Henry Miller—have
subsidized the publication of their own books. But in the last few years self-publishing has truly become mainstream.
Authors do so because
they can’t find a publisher willing to take a chance on
their work or prefer to keep complete creative control of the
publishing process in their own hands. For most authors, publishing
a book goes beyond words.
It embodies a dream that has taken
years, sometimes decades, to flower.

If you've finally reached the end
of your long creative journey and you're ready to self-publish,
we know you want to wrap your hands around a final product that
you can truly take pride in—whether you plan to sell copies
or give them away.
We want your book to make the impression that you want and it deserves. We want to make it a pleasurable experience from beginning to end for anyone who picks it up. And if you want to sell your books, you can do so through Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com or arrange for purchase on the ipad, Nook, and Kindle, and have copies available for purchase by bookstores through America’s largest book distributors. We can even arrange for a live sales force to market your book to corporate chain-bookstore buyers.
There’s no longer any way to tell your book is self-published. |
