Gina Simone reviews Outskirts Press
I chose Outskirts Press as my publishing company because of the incredible reputation they hold in the industry for self-publishers. Their website is user-friendly and easy to maneuver. Their customer service agents are always ready to answer any questions. They take the stress out of the process of self-publishing by streamlining the entire operation. My first-time author experience was made SO easy by working with Outskirts Press. They explained the process every step of the way, their editing and graphics teams were a joy to work with. The vision I held in my head of this book coming to life has manifested in my hands, all due to the professionalism and experience of Outskirts Press. Thank you!
Bernard Bentley reviews Outskirts Press
This is my third published book with Outskirts Press. The details and the overall quality of my book is astonishing! The team leaders who worked endlessly to make this publication a success were highly skilled. They made helpful suggestions to me which made the process easier than ever before. With my latest book I decided to go with full color illustrations. It is amazing to see how the vivid color really brings my book to life. I plan to start writing for my next book in the upcoming weeks. Outskirts Press is my only publishing option.
Judy Eicheldinger reviews Outskirts Press
Outskirts Press delivers. Everything was upfront with no surprises and professionally implemented each step of the way. I’m thrilled with the end product and overjoyed that with never having attempted self-publishing before, I ended up choosing an outstanding company, one which I will wholeheartedly recommend to others. What I can’t express profoundly enough is my appreciation for every single person who I encountered on this journey. The encouragement that I received from this publishing team was not expected, but was so kind. There is no price tag that you can put on that but they certainly represent the best part of Outskirts Press. Thank you for being a reputable and safe place for authors to come. Your services are top notch and I thank you for helping me get my book to print!
