Manuscript Evaluation
This is our honest appraisal of your idea, your market and suggested format.

Copy Editing and Proofreading
Professional editors and proofreaders will prepare your manuscript to publishing standards, getting the manuscript ready for layout.

Graphic Design and Layout
Our experienced graphic artists will prepare several cover ideas for your review, with our recommendation. They will also do layout of the book and prepare two proofs for your review before publication.

Printing
We’ve been working with printers for decades, from local/regional companies to Hong Kong. We know the right printer for the job.

Storage, Marketing and Distribution
We will store your books, promote them with a press release and event, and distribute them to retail outlets and bookstores. Other services include listing on websites, advertising in Virginia Publishing publications and promotion through social media such as Facebook and Twitter.

Pricing
A typical book could be a 5 1/2” by 8 1/2” soft cover book, 160 pages, with full color cover and printed on uncoated white paper stock. While every proposal is custom, and you can pick and choose what you need, a book like this would cost you from us $4 to $6 per copy for 1000 copies.
