Author Services
Methodology
We publish great books! Our author services cover the publishing experience from manuscript to bookiversary events. Your publishing partner/editor will shepherd you through the process of bringing your story from draft to print.
To make this process an enjoyable one for our authors, we dedicate time and resources to a small (but growing!) calendar of releases each year. This means we cannot publish every manuscript that is submitted. However, we do offer a la carte services to help you polish and publish your work.
Contact us to discuss your manuscript & our process.
