Quaystone Books

We will typeset your book for 99 British pounds (or the equivalent in other currencies).

We use LaTeX, (in our opinion) the best typesetting programme, to typeset paperbacks, and Sigil, the best ebook creator, to produce ebooks. Occasionally, we use Scrivener, a programme familiar to most authors.

We use open-source fonts to avoid licensing problems.

The fee is not payable until we send you a finalised PDF for publication.

Our fee does not include expenses you might have to pay to a third party, for example, you might need to buy an ISBN. If so, you pay for it direct to the supplier.

We will alert you to any errors in your book which we spot. But we do not proofread or edit your book.

By instructing us to publish your book you confirm that you own the copyright.

As we are based in England, we reserve the right not to publish your book if we think it will---or might---transgress UK law.

Please note: our fee of 99 British pounds is for typesetting your book and does not include a cover. Our fee for designing a bookcover is negotiable, but is normally in the region of 200 British pounds to include paperback and ebook versions.

post scriptum: We are sometimes asked why is our price is so cheap when some of our competitors charge thousands. Basically, if you are a new or unknown author, you are very unlikely to make any money from your book, no matter how good it is. If you do, it will be like winning the lottery. In the absence of good fortune—such as the editor in a major publishing house finding your book on Amazon: the equivalent of finding a proverbial needle in a haystack—you will not sell many books; at least, not enough to recoup hundreds—certainly not thousands. And, to be honest, we are still likely to make a profit (albeit a small one) even if we only charge 99 British pounds for typesetting a book.
