You may want to write about your family history or important events in your life that you would like to be passed on to future generations. Maybe you have written poems and would like to have them printed and bound in one place. Almost everyone has an idea for a novel or a children's story. Perhaps you have written a series of stories that might help someone else going through the same thing in life. There are a variety of ways to be creative and tell your story. Let us help you figure out how you want to make becoming an author a reality!

YOU ARE INVITED!

• Will I retain the profits from my publication when self-publishing?  Yes! Once you hit the publish button on a platform you have chosen and have feedback that your book has passed review for publication, the profits from your publication will be yours.

• Can you help me with pricing of my publication? Yes, we can give you ideas about pricing and help you determine this according to profits desired. Most self-publishing platforms take a certain percentage of your proceeds and charge for the printing of your product. 

• Can you help with marketing my publication? We can talk about your marketing plan during the Review of Edits or after publication for the same hourly fee of $50 an hour. Beach Bards Publishing, LLC will not market your product.

• Will I be able to use Beach Bards Publishing as my book publisher? No, we are not your book publisher. You are self-publishing. We can guide you through the process of self-publishing and give you feedback during the editing process. We do not publish books outside of our own written publications. 

• Will I be expected to pay before services? Levels 2, 4, 5, 6 will require an hour prepayment. Level 3 requires payment in advance based on the number of words.
