"I have just published my third novel with PublishNation.
Once again, the service has been first class. I self-imposed a tight deadline for publication and both Tracy and Gwen went that extra mile to help me achieve it. I cannot speak highly enough of how helpful they have been and would not hesitate to recommend PublishNation to any aspiring writers."
"By the time I had discovered PublishNation I had completed the text of my book. I handed over the draft and PublishNation were able to put everything together in a timely and efficient way. David always answered any emails I sent either the same day or the next day. He made a few suggestions and was able to direct me to a book cover picture. PublishNation added the final touches to the front and back covers and I think it stands out. I found ordering a proof copy was invaluable, being of the ‘old school’, as it allowed me to read my almost finished book as if I was doing so for the first time. In turn, that allowed me to pick up and correct the few remaining typos. David suggested retail prices (I’d add, think of a fair price you want to market your book at). Then, the book was published in paperback and Kindle format. The whole process was straightforward, even for someone who did not grow up with the internet. In addition, the Writers Guide sent, contains all the useful and practical information you need after the book is published."
"I needed to find a new publisher for my latest novel so I spent a lot of time searching the Internet without finding exactly what I was looking for and then I found David Morrison’s PN PublishNation web page. This was a stroke of good fortune. I sent an E-mail to David asking a few preliminary questions and I received a detailed reply within 24 hours which impressed me, but as I was soon to discover there is much about PN PublishNation which is impressive. Both David and Gwen Morrison take time to explain every detail of the publishing package that they offer; there are no fees to pay up front, and later when your book is available for sale on Kindle and on Amazon they give you a step by step guide explaining exactly what you need to do to check your sales and revenue figures, how to set up an account for your royalty payments to be paid into, and they even open an E-mail account, personal to you, to receive information from Kindle, Amazon and Lulu (the book printers and sellers). They show patience and understanding if you are a computer illiterate(which I am) and in my view provide a first rate service to their writers. As an author, you are treated with respect and given all the time you need to get your manuscript absolutely right (it doesn’t seem to matter how many times the manuscript passes backwards and forwards; until you are entirely satisfied it does not get sent off for printing). The quality of the finished book is excellent and the publicity package they offer as an optional extra is very fairly priced. Overall I think David and Gwen Morrison pull out all the stops to assist their authors, and I am certainly very happy to recommend their services."
"I surfed, searched and scoured the net after writing my first book – hopes raised, optimism to the max – knowing that I had finally finished the manuscript and was ready for the world to see it. And then the sharp realisation hit: that the publishing word is a minefield – so many companies ready to pounce and take advantage of your innate desire for your book to be a bestseller. Then I came across PublishNation – kept it in my favourites tab – read through the website about ten times – thinking there must be a royalty catch somewhere. My finished manuscript kept staring at me, I took a chance, picked up the phone, spoke to David and began the process. Well, four months later ‘Fusion of Evils’ is selling remarkably well. David and Gwen provided clear, professional advice, black and white guidance and exceptional value for money. I love my book. I’m glad I placed it in their hands for it to be published and for a dream to be a reality. I unreservedly recommend PublishNation. All you have to do is just pick up the phone – there is no hard sales pitch, just a friendly duo wanting to do well by you and your book. Thank you!"
"Having written a book forty-odd years ago, I decided to have a go at getting it published as an activity in my retirement. I researched various ways of doing this on the internet, including costs and decided self-publishing with PublishNation was the easiest way of doing this, at a reasonable cost. The process proved straightforward with David guiding me effortlessly through it, ensuring I was happy with the finished product. For this book, I didn't take advantage of the marketing services offered, although the free promotion on Kindle was very worthwhile, enabling family and friends to obtain a copy. I enjoyed the process of editing and in some cases rewriting sections of the book, bearing in mind I'd last looked at it so long ago. Therefore, I'm writing another as a hobby, which I find very satisfying. The information for authors on the PublishNation website is well ordered, easy to access and helpful. I will definitely use PublishNation again, as it's writing which interests me, not the mechanics of trying to self-publish using the online tools available from Amazon and others. This time I will use the marketing services in an attempt to stimulate more sales!"
