​
What royalties do we offer?
We pay 75% net royalties, so our authors earn a lot more than they would with a typical traditional publisher.
​
When should I expect an answer from you?
Usually between 20-45 days. We will respond no matter if your work is accepted or not.
Due to an increase in submissions, it may take us longer to provide a formal response to a submitted manuscript.
​
How much does it cost?
It is free to submit, of course.
​
The publishing costs may vary between $500 and $10000, depending on which option you choose and what you need. It also depends on your content, word count, etc.
Why is it paid?
​
Simply because this way we can give a chance to more books. If we get some help from the author, we may do a lot more for the book. This way we can give a chance to new authors, risky books and we can afford to pay 75% royalties. Overall, the idea is to split not only the bill but the risk!
