Outskirts Press can help you self-publish your book in paperback, hardback, eBook and/or audiobook format allowing you to reach readers on every platform—because we know that more formats mean more readers which means more sales.
We offer premium glossy or matte covers in the book sizes that all authors are looking for (including the popular 4x7 mass market paperback size and the 8.5x11 workbook size). In fact, with 58 formats available, we’re sure you will find exactly the right size for your book. See details on all available binding, paper and cover finish options for each book size.

Five books, SNOW MEN, MERIDIAN, THE RED SHORE, SPECIAL MEANS, and IN THE BLACK -- four 1st Place Awards from the Colorado Independent Publishers Association’s EVVY Awards and four Outskirts Press Best Book of the Year Awards! How could I possibly ask for more?
IN THE BLACK is the fifth novel I have published with Outskirts Press. The reason for that is simple. Without question, they are the absolute best in the wilderness of independent publishers. The OP teams I have worked with are a great bunch of professionals who know their business exceedingly well and made this latest novel the absolute best it could be. None better. You are all top-notch, first class, and I thank you for all the awesome efforts you’ve made on my behalf.
