Choose How You Want to Publish Your Book

Start with print, or explore digital, audio, and marketing options based on your goals.


Most authors start with print publishing


Choose between black & white and full-color print publishing based on your book type and content. Then choose between three flexible publishing packages designed to support your goals — from getting started to publishing with maximum impact.

Black & white and full-color print publishing are our most popular publishing paths.

Every author receives professional design, worldwide distribution, and print-on-demand fulfillment so your book is always available with no inventory required.

Black & White Publishing
Best for novels, memoirs, and most nonfiction books

Ideal for text-driven books that do not require full-color interior printing. Choose from three publishing packages with flexible levels of support, format options, and marketing extras.

Paperback, eBook, and hardback options available depending on package
Best fit for books where affordability and competitive retail pricing matter most
Explore Economy, Basic, and Ultimate black & white publishing packages
Full-Color Publishing
Best for children’s books, cookbooks, art books, and highly visual titles

Designed for books that rely on vivid interior color to tell the story, showcase photography, highlight illustrations, or deliver a visually rich reader experience from the very first page to the final spread.

Strong fit for illustrated, image-heavy, and premium-format books
Multiple package levels available based on your printing and presentation needs
Explore Economy, Basic, and Ultimate full-color publishing packages
