crucial. This goes for all elements of your title, with quality editorial, design and printing all crucial to helping your book stand out from the crowd. While no publisher can guarantee bestseller success, we do guarantee that your book will meet the same production quality standards as any commercially published title. Our professional approach ensures your book has the best possible presentation, improving its chances in a competitive market. Publishing for Fulfilment Not every author intends to sell through bookshops. For some, it’s about preserving family history, compiling a poetry collection or simply realising a personal dream. These objectives are no less valid than those authors who want to sell as many copies as possible, and we believe that publishing these books is just as important as any other. We’re here to support these projects too. Every book, even if it’s just for personal enjoyment, deserves to be created to the highest standard, and
we bring the same commitment to quality to these works as we do to widely distributed titles. Embracing Independence Being an independent author is rewarding but can sometimes feel isolating. As you will have read so far, the number of different elements that go into successfully self- publishing a book is daunting for any author, especially if they are looking to execute some or all of them solo. That is why authors should seek out honest advice from other authors, publishers and professionals who know what they are talking about. Backed by years of experience, organisations like Troubador are dedicated to supporting you throughout the journey, giving you the freedom to enjoy the process while leaving the heavy lifting to the professionals. We also encourage authors to share their experiences with us and with other authors – because every story adds to the vibrant world of self-publishing and inspires others along the way. You can see some examples of success stories on our website.
