Personal design call and support
throughout the process

Once you sign your publishing agreement and submit your manuscript, we schedule a conference call for you to talk with a design team specifically assigned to work on your book. You also have access to personal assistance throughout the publishing process.

Custom-designed full-color cover

Your cover designer creates a cover using stock art or your custom image that reflects your vision for the book and helps make it more marketable.

Custom designed full-color interior

Unlike many self-publishers, at AuthorHouse, we don’t use templates. Your book is custom-designed based on your input during the design call with your book designer.

ISBN distribution number

AuthorHouse will provide a unique ISBN, which stands for International Standard Book Number, for your book at no extra charge. The ISBN is a standardized number used by publishers and booksellers across the world to identify and order your book.

Available Formats & Technical Details

Select from several publishing standard book sizes, including: 8.5" x 8.5" or 8.5" x 11"”. These formats have an allowable page count of 4 to 480 pages.

Full-color book self-publishing includes:

• Up to 50 color images
• image manipulations
• 1 CD galley
• 2 hours of designer services
• Glossy paperback book

Retain your rights

Publish with a traditional publisher and you give away your rights. With AuthorHouse, you keep all your rights to sell to other countries or to Hollywood.

Set your royalty amount

With AuthorHouse, you determine the amount you want to earn in royalties and set your book's selling price.
