The fixed-price proposal meant I knew exactly what I was committing to before I signed anything. The work came in on time, on budget, and I kept every right. That's rare.

I'd worked with three other services before American Publisher. The difference is the attention. Nothing felt like it was being pushed through a system. The book looks and reads exactly as I imagined it.

Zero KDP rejections. They handled everything: metadata, categories, A+ content. My book went live and correctly categorised on the first upload, and I haven't touched the account since.

Questions we're asked.
Can I add my own branding?
Yes. Supply your brand colours, fonts, and logo and we apply them throughout.
Does it print correctly?
We set bleeds, gutters, and crop marks to commercial-print and Lulu/IngramSpark specs.
Is a digital version included?
Yes. A fillable PDF and reflowable EPUB are both included in the standard scope.
What do I send?
Word document or Google Docs with your content. Rough layout sketches help but aren't required.
