Nice Testimonial by one of our authors
I'd like to thank my publisher for the ease in which my ideas are getting "down on paper." I also think that they had a nice marketing plan "thought out" for the book.

The short stories combine moments of humor with adventure - and lessons in life, in the style of myths and fables.

Our article -- on POD (Print on Demand) Technology
Some authors may decide to use a publisher when they write their books. The publisher's expertise and knowledge is often well worth the nominal cost to use an industry professional. A knowledgeable publisher can often save an author time and trouble. In some cases, the cost of the publisher is just a little more than purchasing your own ISBN!
Publishers will typically work with their authors to customize services. Some authors merely need an ISBN and some help with formatting issues. Others will want editorial assistance. A good publisher should serve the needs of their authors.
An additional benefit that should not be underestimated is that using a third-party publisher gives your book added prestige. This may be particularly important if the book is a credibility-builder for your business.
