Send Us Your Manuscript

We're looking for a few great books each year.

We are always looking for great manuscripts. If you have written a book that you think we might be interested in publishing, please send us a book proposal to the address above or send it as an e-mail attachment. We will take a look at it, evaluate it and give you our opinion. There is no charge for this service. We can only publish a few books a year but we know there are great book ideas out there.

 

We can publish a book for you at a very resonable cost!

New developments in digital technology have reduced the cost of printing books. It's now possible to print books in small press runs for public speakers, teachers, poets/writers and local historians at costs that are in the hundreds of dollars rather than the thousands of dollars. These books are nearly identical to expensive offset books and provide dozens of options including color photos, hard cover bindings and perfect bindings.

 

We can take your manuscript and photos and produce a profesionally designed and printed book for you. Here are the services we offer:

 

Press runs of 25 to 5000 copies

No need to fill up your garage and basement with boxes of books that you might not sell. You can print as many as you need now and print more later. Two-week turn-around time!

Dozens of format sizes

Color or black and white illustrations

Page counts of 25 to 1000 pages

Color covers

Professional Book Design

Editing

Cover design

Wide Choice of bindings, including hard cover

Inexpensive additions to second and subsequent printings

Who needs a book?

Public Speakers

An attractive, printed book adds to your credibility and provides an additional income stream as participants buy your book, or you can add the book as part of your program. Because we can print in small press runs, you can update your book often and even print a new one for each event.

Teachers

Why use handouts when you can consolidate your lesson plans, work sheets and diagrams into a bound book. It's great for workshops where you can provide fellow teachers with your entire technique. Students buying the book add to your income.

 

Local and Family Historians

You've worked for years collecting your information. Now it can present it in a professionally printed book. It's inexpensive enough that you can give the book away as Christmas presents to your family. We can include photos and charts. L:ocal historians can provide information on various aspects of the town in an attractive format for sale in your museum or archives. You can create your own book about famous former residents or events.

Poets/Writers

Handprinted chapbooks are great and provide the personal touch, but to be considered a professional there is nothing like a real book. We can match poets up with illustrators to produce beattiful books you will be proud of. We will work with you to create just the kind of look you want. It's so inespensive even starving artists can afford it!
