"I embarked on the self-publishing route mainly with the intention of leaving something tangible for family and friends to remember me by. I`d tried another self-publishing company previously, but found their set-up too expensive and confusing, so began to look elsewhere. Fortunately I hit upon PublishNation - altogether a more user-friendly site for a first-time author.
Prices (and exactly what you get for the money) are clearly laid out and explained, and having a dedicated-contact makes it easier to get guidance as needed.
I can`t praise David enough for his endless patience in guiding me - an inexperienced computer-user - through the self-publishing process. The book that`s resulted is all I could have hoped for - indistinguishable in appearance and layout from the output of conventional publishers, and at a cheaper price than friends have paid elsewhere - and the eye-catching cover was exactly what I had in mind.
I can thoroughly recommend that any writer seeking publication should get in touch with PublishNation, and see what it can do for them.
To see what was once only pages of manuscript turned into a real book that you can hold in your hand is an emotional experience not easy to explain - a dream that would never have been turned into reality without David`s patient assistance.
I have other books I`d like to publish eventually - if and when I do, I`ll have no hesitation in turning to PublishNation again."
"I have just published my fourth book with PublishNation. For someone new to writing for publication the whole process can be more than a little daunting. However, Gwen and David at PublishNation, with their understanding, expertise and endless patience, will take away all of the worries and make the reality of seeing your name in print a painless, enjoyable journey. I cannot recommend PublishNation highly enough. All I want to do as an author is write my next book and I know that by handing over all of the mechanics of publication to David and Gwen I can do exactly that, secure in the knowledge that my book is safe in their experienced hands."
"Like any new author taking their first tentative baby steps into the world of publishing, I was apprehensive about who to put my trust in. After extensive research I came across PublishNation and gave them a call. From my first conversation with Gwen Morrison I felt instantly at ease, and knew that I had found someone I could place my trust in.From that first informative talk, right the way through to the final publishing of my book, Gwen and the team at PublishNation did all they said they would, on time and with great skill and understanding. I can't recommend them highly enough to any author and I shall look forward to a long relationship with PublishNation for my future works."
"My book is called Catherine Weissenberg. I wanted to have just about 30 copies of my book on finding this ancestor for my family. The problem I found was the fact that a very interesting colonial American ancestor has hundreds of descendants and a family feud. Then I came across this new way of publishing which means I could have not just 30 copies for immediate family, but also all those American cousins can buy copies at no cost to me.
Publishing this way has meant that I can afford it on my pension. I got lots of help as most of the time I did not have a clue what I was doing. I am going to keep up my genealogy hobby and I will write another book on another branch of my ancestors. Who knows, it might even end up as a series. There are companies out there who help amateur genealogists to do this and charge thousands per copy of each book!
My book will not sell much as it is really only of interest to my family but it is very affordable and I will know what I am doing next time. Thank you Publishnation"
"As a first time author I was apprehensive about how to get my book published but a friend recommended PublishNation and I was wise to follow her suggestion. The process from manuscript to finished book was aided by David who was amazingly patient with all my questions and the many changes that I made. I can recommend PublishNation to an aspiring author, just get writing and then put yourself into David's hands!"
