Book Publishing
Independent publishing, done properly
Self-publishing gives you control and far better royalties than a traditional deal, but it comes with a long checklist: ISBNs, copyright registration, trim sizes, bleed settings, categories, keywords, pricing in several currencies and store rules that change every year.
Our publishing team works through that checklist with you. We set up your books in your own publisher accounts, so sales and royalties go straight to you and you never depend on us to access your money.
Your book can be released as an ebook, paperback, hardcover and audiobook, with print-on-demand distribution to thousands of online stores, libraries and bookstores worldwide.
- Published in your own accounts
- Ebook, paperback and hardcover editions
- Keyword and category research
- 100% of royalties paid to you

FAQ
Questions about book publishing
Have a question that is not answered here? Our consultants are happy to help.
Talk to a specialist
Do I keep my royalties?
Yes, all of them. Your book is published in accounts that belong to you, so the stores pay you directly. We do not take a percentage of your sales.
Which platforms will my book be on?
Usually Amazon (Kindle and print), Barnes & Noble, Apple Books, Kobo and Google Play Books, plus IngramSpark, which reaches more than 40,000 bookstores, libraries and online retailers.
Do I need my own ISBN?
We recommend owning your ISBNs so you are listed as the publisher. We will walk you through buying them from Bowker, the official ISBN agency in the United States, and assign one to each format of your book.
How long does it take to publish?
Once your manuscript and cover are final, most books are live within 2 to 4 weeks, including time for you to approve printed proofs.
