Just contact us about it using the form on this page.
If your manuscript is in a finished state, apart from a final round of edits and checks, then it's probably best to sign up so we can get the work under way because it does take time to complete the preparation work.

Have you already published?
We are regularly approached for help by authors who have had problems with self-publishing. If you have had disappointing results or other problems we are happy to do a free assessment with a view to identifying what may be done to deal with the issues.
As one author said "The trouble is that you don't know what you don't know" so sometimes there can be fairly simple measures that make a big difference.
In other cases it can be more cost effective for us to re-publish a new version of the book under our umbrella.
Just contact us for a free assessment if you have a self-published book that you need help with. Contact us about it using the form on this page.
We are members of the IPG (Independent Publishers Guild).
We are seeking new and established authors. Have you written a non-fiction books that shares your experiences and expertise? Do get in touch. For fiction, we are keen to support unpublished authors. More generally, we believe in freedom of expression so favour editing with a light touch and shun political correctness.
Self-publishing
We recognise that some authors would rather self-publish than publish with us or any other publisher. For that reason we offer a basic self-publish package that deals with things that most self-publishing authors don't want to handle for themselves.
