Our philosophy…

All manuscripts are carefully reviewed and edited, and, best of all, our authors do not pay a single cent to be published.

• PublishAmerica never issues fees or charges of any kind;
• PublishAmerica pays each author an advance and royalties for book sales, like other traditional companies;
• PublishAmerica solely underwrites all expenses involved with acquiring, editing, producing and printing a book.

Our publishing process…

PublishAmerica believes that every writer has a message worth reading, whether he is well into the draft of his fifth novel and she has just put pen to paper for the first time.

• Copyeditors go through each manuscript line by line, searching for errors in spelling, grammar and mechanics;
• Authors work with a team of graphic designers in perfecting a book's cover and layout;
• A digital printing process called "print-on-demand" allows books to be printed one at a time, as orders are made.
