✨Questions✨

Things People
Often Ask Us

✨Do I need any writing experience?

Not at all. Many of our best books were written with authors who had never written anything before. You bring the story β€” we bring the craft.

✨How long does the whole process take?

From first call to published book, most projects take 12–20 weeks depending on the length and complexity of your book.

✨Do I keep the rights to my book?

Absolutely. You own 100% of your book β€” the words, the illustrations, the ISBN, and all royalties. We are a service, not a publisher taking rights.

✨What age range do you publish for?

We publish picture books (ages 2–8), early readers (ages 6–9), and chapter books (ages 7–12). We don't currently work on young adult titles.

✨Can I use my own illustrations?

Yes! If you or someone you know has illustrated the book already, we can work with existing artwork and focus on writing, publishing, and launch services.
