From start to finish everyone and…

From start to finish everyone and everything that Author House helped Paul Cabell self publish his first book 📖 was greatly appreciated. They were very informative and professional in
with handling everything that was needed to complete my book "God Is First & #1" for the Ministry. Paul highly recommend any up & coming new authors to use Author House Publishing for their books too. Thanks 😊.

Not a pleasant experience

My heavens! I have just spent quite a time with this company to try and sort out publishing my book. The cost was quite a bit and I felt too much so they then came up with a much reduced cost BUT would not allow me to go away and think about it - the hard sell technique was applied to a ridiculous extent. They even said that I could not be serious about publishing and accused me of wasting their time!!!

My experience with Author house was a profoundly exploitative one.

Run. Away. From. Author house. Run as fast as you can. My experience with Author house was a thoroughly disappointing and painful one. It was is all about money for them. There is no face to the business. Just numerous calls to expand services and pay more money. I only communication with someone called Homer Florez which I doubt is a real name. The editorial assessment of my book was just a ruse to keep me paying money in instalments like a telemarketing scam. No value added. When I eventually realized their con, it was radio silence. I want to say I'm grateful I decided to terminate the agreement but I still feel violated.

AuthorHouse has very competently…

AuthorHouse has very competently produced our book, and has fulfilled its contractual obligations to post its sales information to the designated sales sites. But as the customer, I felt I had to chase information from among the half-dozen or so staffers who handled different aspects of design, production, marketing, manufacturing and distribution. No single staffer is assigned to the client who would then be responsible for providing all information. And I’ve more than once been made to feel that I was being a bother for asking questions.

So many delays

So many delays. Poor communication. Been waiting four days for a single email reply to correct an issue with my front cover.

I will not be using them again.

This first volume had a bit of a rough…

This first volume had a bit of a rough start. I needed to rewrite it several times in order to pass protocol standards. And the cost was more than I anticipated to launch this book - the size mandated splitting it into multiple volumes, which added to the cost factor. That said, working with the various departments at AuthorHouse was not difficult, and the finished product, I'm pleased with. I still am unsure as to whether I'll recapture the investment, only time will tell. I imagine Author House has a rule, not to encourage authors by praising their book ahead of time, or even encouraging authors too much, as this could easily backfire - however, this is one thing I would like to see them change a bit. Even if the book is not that great - a little encouragement goes a long way, especially with a first-time author, and I've received none that I remember to date from anyone at AurhorHouse. I'm not talking about "hey - this thing's a hit" or "I've never read anything better"; but, just something simple like "this book has some good thoughts" or "I can tell you put a lot of effort into this work". Again, words of encouragement mean everything to first-timers like me - who aren't even sure they qualify as bonafide "authors" at this point! Anyway, let's just say I'm testing the waters with AuthorHouse. The publishing had a few hiccups, but all in all it went well and the book is out. I'm pushing for volume two at the moment, which should really tell if things are going in the right direction.

I have self-published with AuthorHouse…

I have self-published with AuthorHouse four times. I think that alone is a strong testimonial of support. I scoured the internet for other publishers, read reviews, made phone calls, and gathered all pertinent information. AH comes out on top every time. Professional, timely responses to questions, and quality of the product, all winners! I am happy to recommend AH to any author who is thinking about self-publishing.

No Timely response!

The book was supposed to go out for Christmas. The graphic designers kept messing up the art, the MS Doc was not copy-pasted properly, meaning the ITALICIZED text didn't match the original script. The book jacket had mistakes that weren't corrected and I didn't receive my final copies before the Pitchfest in Beverly Hills like the other authors, so I felt stupid, unprepared and unprofessional. All in all, it was a miserable pain in the ass, after spending $14,000 with poor results.
