Your royalties are paid directly into your bank account. We don’t take any of your royalties. Your royalties will be NET, and the royalty fee will be charged by the outlet that sold your book: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc.

Yes, you get to choose your ink quality, paper weight and book size. We send you a list to choose from at the start of your publishing journey. Your book size is fixed once the book has been formatted. You are free to change your paper weight and ink quality at any time in the dashboard that is created for you.

You keep 100% of your copyright, and you own your book and all associated rights entirely – that’s what separates our service apart from others. The sales and distribution accounts are set up in your name.

There are no hidden costs. All prices are quoted at the start of the publishing process.

You have complete control over setting the retail price of your book, so you are free to charge as little or as much as you like. We guide you on this aspect as part of our publishing service.

The average turnaround time is 4 to 8 weeks, but this is not guaranteed in all cases. Generally, the quicker you are in sharing your feedback and approval of our work, the quicker we can get your book published.

We use PDF proof copies of the book as they are faster and more cost-effective.

You can order as many copies of your book as you like, but they are charged at cost price. This means you are just charged purely for the printing and shipment cost of the books you order.

This is handled through the Print on Demand facility of the publishing platforms where we publish your book. For example, if someone orders a book on Amazon, Amazon’s Print-on-Demand facility prints and distributes the book to the customer and you are paid your royalty.
