Standard Package

Are you an aspiring author? We’d like to help you publish your book.

Firstly we want you to know that you don’t need us. If you choose to, you can self-publish all by yourself, and it isn’t particularly hard. There’s lots of information available to teach you how. For example check out David Gaughran’s tutorial, or this awesome guide from the good folks at Reedsy.

However, we realize that maybe you don’t care about all that crap and you just wanna focus on writing. That’s where we come in.

We are not a traditional publisher, with all the hassles and delays that that entails. Nor are we a vanity publisher, gouging the author with ridiculous up-front costs and leaving them stuck with a garage full of books that they will never sell. Rather, we take an indie approach, using our own self publishing experience and know-how, and we leverage that for our clients. This hybrid business model allows us to remain agile, economical, and effective.

Our standard package includes:

  • We pay industry standard royalty rates of 10% of cover price.
  • You retain all copyrights.
  • We do not charge you money to publish your book.
  • We accept unsolicited manuscripts and we don’t require agents.
  • We make your book available on Amazon in both paperback and ebook formats.
  • Optionally, your book can be made available for order at brick and mortar bookstores and libraries. (a setup fee applies for this additional option)
  • We provide beautiful cover art.* – check out our catalog for examples
  • We build your web presence with a dedicated author page and book pages on our website, Amazon and Goodreads.
  • We run ads on Amazon to get your book in front of avid readers as they shop.*
  • We do require that you make a small commitment to marketing the book yourself – details here

As members of the Alliance of Independent Authors, we support and adhere to ethical publishing standards.
