We publish all genres.

Why use us in particular?

For three important reasons

1) In an industry that is filled with fraud we are completely honest.

2) We are experienced and qualified not only in the publishing of books but in the literary side of publishing, our literary editing is the best in the country.

3) We are, as far as we know, the cheapest. We purposely set our prices at the lowest we can afford and still deliver the service.

We charge only £950 to publish your book.

The Authors Library Press

was set up by a professional author with long experience in publishing from both sides, as an internationally known author published by top publishers in Britain and abroad (Penguin, Methuen, Bloomsbury,Teatrales, Christian Bourgois, Samlaget) as well as, on the other side, working as Senior Drama Consultant for the second largest drama publisher in Britain, and as editor for other important publishers in Britain. He is also the principal translator of Strindberg's plays.

Royalties

You get 100% of all the proceeds from the sale of your book.

Copyright

You own the copyright and can republish at any time.

Distribution

Authors with us have the option of using Gardners distribution and will be listed for sale with Waterstones, WH Smith, and the other major bookshops.

We will put you in touch with an experienced promotion service.

(Your book will of course be listed on Amazon.)

So, if you do literally nothing else to promote or distribute your book, it will be available for sale online through us.

How long does it take?

Generally we aim to have the book delivered to your door within eight weeks

Printing costs

As a very rough guide an 80,000 book with no illustrations costs £4 per copy to print.

Unsure of your work?

If you're not sure, send it to us and we will make a judgement. We don't of course publish everything we are sent.

We are looking for writing of good quality but we have no preconceived ideas about what constitutes good quality.

Some good writers lack confidence, it doesnt cost anything for us to look at it.
