From manuscript to finished volume
If you are an independent author ready to submit a completed manuscript, our team is here to assist. We provide copy editing, cover design, layout and design at no cost to the author.
If the writing in your book does not meet our quality standards, then we will give you a list of developmental editors we think can help. While we do not spend our time writing or rewriting your book for you, we want you to have as many options as possible to find someone who will help: People who are not part of our staff and that do not answer to our editors--professional, outside editors who only answer to you.
Send us a message
Use this form to submit a portion of your manuscript (1st, 2nd chapters, and the final chapter along with information about you and your writing career in PDF format--Do not send you entire manuscript) for consultation and possible publication. Note: Our staff will never call you or send you an email asking you to send money for publication. If you receive a request asking you to purchase gift cards or wire money, please contact your local authorities. We sell books, not publishing services.
Frequently asked questions
What are your submission guidelines?
How long does printing take?
After we notify you that we are willing to publish your manuscript, we only accept completed manuscripts in digital text formats. We focus on historical research, personal memoirs, and independent, historical novels. We publish other works (fiction and nonfiction) for authors for whom we have previously published their other work.
Depending on your manuscript, our process can take anywhere from six weeks (for pristine work) to one year (for properties that need additional work. Our goal is to make your book looks as professional as possible.
Do you offer editorial services?
What selling to bookstores?
Yes. Every accepted project undergoes professional proofreading and custom interior layout design by our staff. If we cannot bring your work up to what we consider publishable standards, we can (if you want) refer you to dozens of independent copy and developmental editors. Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee that we will publish work you have had professionally edited.
We do not market to bookstores. We strictly market online and through Amazon and PayHip.
