Introducing Smooth Sailing Press...
What began a few short years ago as part-time manuscript editing for a handful of authors, has today evolved into a unique blend of both Traditional and Subsidy Publishing for Smooth Sailing Press. Although our attention as a publishing house is keenly focused on assisting authors in “self-publishing” their books, Smooth Sailing Press will also publish a book “traditionally” by purchasing a manuscript from the author and paying royalties.
The advantage to the author of this blending of publishing models is obvious. Smooth Sailing Press has the marketing tools in place to promote the titles that are proprietary to Smooth Sailing Press, and can make them available to the self-published author. However, the greatest advantage to the author is that each project is treated the same no matter who owns the copyright! In essence, you the author join our editorial and creative staff in the hands-on production of your book. There are no templates to choose from, no “pre-designed” book covers to add your title to. Every book project is unique and prepared for printing one at a time.
