ON-DEMAND PRINTING
    You can now print one or more copies of your book and sell it to others (or buy it for yourself) without having your own merchant account. "On-demand" printers will give you a page on their website for each title, which includes a picture of the book's cover, descriptive text, and an author bio. Once an order is placed, the on-demand printer will print, bind, and ship it, and send you a royalty. If you want more information, contact us via e-mail or call 650-355-4640 (PST), and we can help you with the process.

Here are some benefits in choosing on-demand printing:

  Ability to print one or more copies for you or your customers
  Ability to update content
  No need for your own publishing company
  No merchant account required for credit card sales
  No excess inventory to store
  No personal website required (or you can link to your website, if you have one)
  Free web page for your customers (with picture of your book cover and a description)
  Free ISBN barcode for your cover
  Royalties sent to you

E-BOOKS    If you want a downloadable electronic version of your book, we can create an "e-book."

TRADITIONAL PRINTING    If you're interested in traditional printing for larger print runs, we can create your book in the format you will need for the printing company.

No matter how you want your book formatted, we can help.
