Jane Gandolfo Author of 5 award-winning mystery books published with Outskirts Press

Several years ago when I decided to write my first book, I searched diligently for a company that offered the quality options and support that I felt I required. Coming from a background in advertising and public relations as well as being the owner of an antique business, I knew from personal experience and from the trade that a lot of the outfits calling themselves "experts" to self-published authors were anything but. The horror stories were abundant!

I decided on Outskirts Press partly as a leap of faith and partly from their excellent track record. I'm delighted to say that my decision to trust Outskirts with "my baby" has paid off many times over. I am currently writing my fifth novel and will once again put my manuscript into their hands. The customer service is excellent and I have never doubted the skills of the editors, proofreaders, cover artists and author representatives that I have been assigned to work with.

I have won two CIPA EVVY Awards which would not have been possible without Outskirt Press. Am I happy with Outskirts Press? You'd better believe it!

McKensie Stewart Author of 3 fiction books published with Outskirts Press

I knew I wanted to write a novel but had no idea how to publish the finished manuscript. I researched many publishing companies and Outskirts Press’s One-Click Fiction Package was the best value compared to the other companies. Throughout the publishing process, everyone I encountered was professional and advice helpful. There are many parts of this package that were useful but the five hours of marketing secured six opportunities for me to showcase my book. I am currently writing my second novel and will go with the same package.

Maureen Scanlon Author of 2 award-winning self-help books published with Outskirts Press

I chose Outskirts for my 1st book, My Dog is More Enlightened Than I Am because I loved how they package everything at a set price and makes it easy for their first time authors.

When publishing my 2nd book, My Dog is My Relationship Coach, there wasn't a question that I would use them again. The communication and expertise from editors, designers, and marketing is priceless! There is a continued relationship with Outskirts after publishing as well to share awards and achievements the books received. I will continue to use Outskirts for the streamlined process and value of the price of publishing.

C.E. Haupt Author of 4 books published with Outskirts Press

Many people in the industry don't realize the gift you are given when you receive a consultant that helps you through each and every step and even goes the extra mile to make it happen. Tina is one such person and for five years she has been the impetus for me to publish my books, a lifetime wish. Thank you for that.

W. Blaine Wheeler Fiction and poetry author of 2 books published with Outskirts Press

I have published nine books using both traditional and self-publishing methods. I can–through this experience–say that without any doubt, Outskirts Press is categorically the very best option. Throughout the entire process of publishing my book, Missing Palm Tree: Stories From America’s Clandestine Service, all of the members of the staff who assisted me were polite, knowledgeable, and kind. They never failed to answer my many questions quickly. They never intimated that I lacked technical abilities even though I do. I cannot recommend highly enough that authors–first timers or experienced–use Outskirts Press for their publisher.

I would like to say thank you to everyone at Outskirts Press who has made my dream come true. I really like everyone at Outskirts Press. They are very nice and helpful. I was so thrilled when I received my book. I am so lucky to have Outskirts Press as my publisher and I will definitely introduce my friends and family members who are writing now to Outskirts Press. Thank you again.

John Timmerman Author of 2 books published with Outskirts Press

One-Click publishing was just right for me! The 'process' pushed me to finish my book and get it published! It was a great ride! I am a teacher and thought, 'Oh, I can write.' The editors showed me that I was rusty. They were great and really improved my final product. One-Click publishing with Outskirts can take you from a dream to reality in a very short amount of time.

All involved, from the cover design to editing to marketing were amazing! The One-Click team are miracle workers if you are seeking to get your book published quickly and efficiently.

Dr. Selena Nicholas-Bublick Author of 6 children's books illustrated and published by Outskirts Press

Writing a book is hard work but is only the first stage in the publishing process. Many more steps are required to produce a book with fabulous illustrations, minimal mistakes and a beautiful eye-catching cover. The One-Click Children’s book package facilitated the metamorphosis of my countless hours of typing into the final product I envisioned and am extremely proud of.

John Randall Dye Author of 6 books published with Outskirts Press

Outskirts press is located at the corner of Dreams and Reality. I had a dream to publish a book and Outskirts Press made it a reality. Do I like the services they provide? I must. I currently have six books published. I have been blessed to have Rebecca A. as my go-to person. She was always there to help me along in the process.

Diane Dettmann Author of 6 award-winning books published with Outskirts Press

Twenty-Eight Snow Angels is my second publishing experience with Outskirts Press. Once the book was completed and, in my hands, I fell in love with the custom cover and the photos that were integrated into the text added such a warm and personal touch. The positive reader response to my memoir, Twenty-Eight Snow Angels, makes my heart soar! Many thanks to Outskirts Press.

Curtis Czarniak Educational book author published with Outskirts Press

I could not be happier with my experience at Outskirts Press. My initial inquiries were handled promptly and efficiently. Once I decided upon a publishing package my author representative shepherded me through the entire process. My book was published about a week ago and I am thrilled with the end product - a very professional looking presentation designed by the people at Outskirts. You pay for some additional services but I found that the cost of the services I purchased was money well spent. I would not hesitate to use Outskirts again to publish my next book.

George A. Machado Memoir author published with Outskirts Press

Outskirts Press has been a great partner in the process of writing and publishing my book Horns and Halos. Jamie Belt and Dana Nelson were great to work with. They were professional, supportive, and excellent communicators.

Writing a book and publishing it can be a grind! It is work and takes dedication, persistence, and commitment. I felt the team at Outskirts Press stood with me during the entire experience. If they did not have the answer right away, they made sure they found out and communicated with me promptly.

I just ordered my Author copies and should know more in two weeks. I can only hope that the marketing and promotion of my book receives the same professional hands-on approach.

I tip my hat to Outskirts Press and thank them for a job well done! Jaimie and Dana were the absolute best!

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!

Diane Wheeler & Mike Kohut Memoir authors published with Outskirts Press

A new journey without a road map always begins with a first step in the general direction of your destination. Writing, publishing and marketing a book is a similar venture. Outskirts Press and our Author Representative provided targeted information via many Outskirts Press articles and e-mails to guide my co-author and I through the publication process. We actively participated in the presentation design of our text, images and book cover. We couldn’t have arrived at our destination without the professional help of our Outskirts Press team. It was both an educational and pleasurable experience. Thanks!

Gene Gade Fiction author published with Outskirts Press

I am a 67 year-old rookie in the publishing process and I needed help. My Author Representative provided excellent assistance. She was competent, but also sensitive, flexible and patient, while guiding me through the necessary steps. I was really impressed with the whole Outskirts Press operation. They provided opportunities and assistance at every step and clearly care about turning out the highest quality product, while respecting the author’s freedom and goals. They provide high-quality support at a reasonable price.

Rev. Dr. Oscar P. Grant Children's author published with Outskirts Press

The knowledge, expertise, and patience of my Author Representative can only be described as phenomenal. I was blessed to work with an Outskirts Representative who really knew the publishing business and more importantly, her joy and fun guiding my book through the publishing process really alleviated any stress. From the introductory call to the book printing, this has been an exceptional experience all around. I wouldn’t change a thing. There may be publishing houses that claim that it’s better to go to them, but my business goes to Outskirts Press, because they are the BEST!

Bernard E. Bentley Children's author of 3 books published and illustrated by 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.

K. Raymond Zabielski Fiction author of 3 books published with Outskirts Press

Let’s face it. Getting a literary agent is extremely difficult. Luckily I came across Outskirts Press and after digging deeper as to how they work and what they offer, I decided it was exactly what I was looking for. All questions were answered right up front. My Author Representative was always there to help guide me. This gave me the freedom to continue writing, while they took care of the nuts and bolts of getting a book out into the market. I presently have my first book published, the second manuscript being edited now with a third in queue. I look forward to having all six books in this series published by Outskirts Press and I couldn’t be happier.
