Assisted Publishing for
Authors, Writers, Poets

Welcome to The Author's Friend.

We provide assisted publishing services to authors, writers, poets, historians, editors, anyone in fact, who is looking to turn their manuscripts into books.

Our services help authors deal with the entire publishing process, from beginning to end. These include:

• Manuscript Preparation: proof-reading, editing, typsetting, layout and cover design etc

• Printing and Binding Solutions

• Publishing Services including copyright assistance, legal deposit and ISBN

• Marketing, Sales and Promotion of the finished product - a quality produced book with your name on it

The service provided by The Author's Friend is based on three core principles:

1. We give you more books for your money than traditional self-publishing or print-on-demand specialists

2. We work with authors on an individual basis, to provide you with the service you desire, and based on your real and present needs. We don't force you down the 'package route'

3. Assisted publishing means that it is the author who retains copyright, and all other publishing rights to the work

Many of the titles which we have helped to publish are available to buy from our online catalogue or you can browse our online gallery of books. If you would like to see your own book among these titles, you can speak to someone today by Contacting Us or you can Get a Quote online.

Assisted Publishing is the rapidly growing alternative to traditional publishing routes, and more and more authors are turning to it. Subscribing to our News Blog is a good way to keep in touch with all that is happening in writing and publishing circles.

If you are interested in learning more about how The Author's Friend works, we have put together a free information booklet on Assisted Publishing Services. To receive your copy write to us at infobook@theauthorsfriend.com.
