Questions about the self-publishing process?
We’ve got answers. Fire away!
Here you’ll find the answers to some general FAQs. If you don’t see the answer to your question here, you can contact us through email or our contact form.
Aside from the actual writing (that’s for you, the author), we handle all other parts of the publishing process. We call this our “smorgasbord” of services—take what you like, and leave the rest. Editing (grammar, punctuation, spelling, and some content if needed), designing storyboards (for picture books), illustrations, layout (margins, text and illustrations placement, pagination), cover design, formatting per printer’s specs. And . . . we coach you through the entire process.
Just download and fill out our one-page Pre-Client Interview (Word format or PDF format) about your book and we'll send you our Fee Structure so you can see exactly what your book would cost to publish. It contains all the services we offer and the cost for each. To see the cost of your project, just select the services you want, then add up the costs in that column to find the bottom-line cost.
A 50% deposit is required to begin the project with the remaining 50% to be paid only after the project is complete and your book is available for purchase. However, if illustrations are required, you’ll send a 60% deposit and pay the remaining 40% at the end.
We used to guarantee that from the time of the first deposit to your book begin available for purchase to be 45 days. This is no longer a guarantee, but it is by far standard practice for our company!
We take no royalties. You are the author; we are the publishing contractors. You contract with us to do whatever is necessary to get your book out to buying readers. After we complete that process for you, all royalties come to you.

We accept all major credit cards - American Express, Mastercard, Visa, Discover - and Paypal. The 60% (or 50%) deposit is to be received before work begins, then the final payment when the project is complete.
Wire transfers are also accepted, but there may be an additional $25 service fee.
Send us the information about your book and we'll send you our Fee Structure so you can see exactly what your book would cost to publish!
If you would like to order your books in bulk from a printer in China, we can only recommend some services that handle those requests.
