First, congratulations, you’ve finally finished your book. That’s a huge achievement! So now you’re probably planning the next step, getting it published. You may have written a novel and sent your manuscript to agents and traditional publishers; received a few rejections slips perhaps? Or maybe you’ve decided you would like to self-publish your book but not sure where to start.
You may have written a memoir or a family history and wish to have it printed for the family to cherish as an heirloom. Perhaps you want to create a cookbook or a beautiful children’s picture book and sell it worldwide. Whatever your reasons are for wanting your work in print, we can help you realise your dream by helping you every step of the way.
Not sure how to make your manuscript into a book layout? Graphic design not your forte? It can be daunting when you realise just what is involved in the production of a book, ISBNs, CIPs, POD, ePub; sound like gobbledygook…? That’s okay. We can decipher the mysteries of self-publishing for you.
We can help you with as much or as little of the process as you choose. You’re the boss, so you remain in charge. Look on Lighthouse Publisher as a friendly assistant with your best interest at heart.
