Specialties
Our aim is to produce attractive, well-designed books at a low cost to the customer.
The process couldn't be simpler. We work closely with you to create a beautiful, custom-made book in as few as six weeks. You give us your book's digital content, and we design, format, print and bind your book using the newest technology. Our short-run printing services allow us to print as few as ten copies of your book, in comparison to traditional print runs that can number in the thousands (and often end up being stored in the garage for years). We also keep the formatted book in our digital archives, making reprinting simple as the demand for your book increases.
We hope you'll consider working with us. Our collective half century of experience in the book business, combined with our knowledgeable staff members and publishing contacts, provide a unique wealth of resources at an affordable price. Still have questions? Feel free to call us at 518-689-1083, send us an email, or, if you're in the area, set up a time to come see us! We're located across the street from Market Block Books at 291 River Street (Suite 180 - 2nd fl), Troy, NY 12180.
History
Established in 2006.
Our business was founded by two independent bookstore owners who were tired of seeing overpriced, poorly made self-published books brought in by authors. They wanted a company where writers could speak directly with the person helping bring their book to life. Since 2006 we have worked with authors to produce over 500 titles (tens of thousands of books).
