Pricing questions, answered.
- Can I order a single copy?
- No — the minimum print run is 25 copies. The calculator will show you the exact unit cost plus shipping for your chosen quantity.
- Do you handle eBook and audiobook too?
- Yes — both are available as à la carte add-ons. eBook conversion and distribution come bundled from the Gold package upward, and audiobook can be added to any package.
- What does the quote include?
- Printing, binding, the cover finish you chose, basic pre-flight checks and shipping. ISBN, editing and design are quoted separately so you can mix and match.
- When do I pay?
- Because all raw materials and production are invested upfront, we take 100% of the payment in advance — securely, on this page — before we begin your print run.
- Do I keep all rights?
- Always. You keep a 100% author profit share and every right — print, audio, film, translation — stays with you forever. We never take a percentage of your royalties.
