Have you been struggling to get your book manuscript into print? Are publisher rejection notices piling up? Is it beginning to seem like your book project may never get off the ground? If so, you are not alone. Most unpublished authors are routinely rejected by publishing houses due to closed-door policies. They no longer accept unsolicited manuscripts at all! Fortunately, independent authors are welcomed at Illumina.
Illumina Publishing helps first-time authors get their books designed, printed and included into international distribution channels. The books are top quality, and are competitively priced for retail and wholesale markets.
We specialize in cover & book design, interior layout, illustration, digital photography, and offer a variety of other publishing services. Illumina also develops and builds internet web sites to maximize our client's net presence, and online sales.
Illumina will supply printed books in any quantity, using either traditional book manufacturers, or via print-on-demand (POD). POD is popular with self-publishers because books are printed and shipped one-at-a-time as needed. POD eliminates the sizable initial investment of traditionally book printing and warehousing. POD orders are processed online, then printed in the required quantity and shipped to purchasers... without the author having lifted a finger.
Illumina's POD books are also "returnable." This eliminates a primary concern of booksellers and wholesalers about carrying POD book titles.
Illumina takes the hassle out of self-publishing. We will design & layout the book, copyright our client's intellectual property, procure ISBN & Library of Congress numbers, and purchase laser bar codes. We build author web sites, and design post production promotional advertising.
Don't reinvent the publishing wheel. Bring your book project to Illumina.
