How the Publishing Process Works
INTRODUCTION
NEW & RETURNING CLIENT PROCESSING STEPS
-
Make sure your manuscript is completed. Only send a copy to us in some type of Word Document format only. You can send it on a CD, Thumb Drive, a Word Document attachment in an email or press "Send My Files" and upload it to us from there.
HOW THE PROCESS WORKS
-
The manuscript is received from the author to the publisher, then a book identification number is placed on it to monitor the book's progress when going into publication. Next, the manuscript is divided into sections called "Bookblocks". Each section will be assigned to an expert in that field. These sections will have "Steps" that the author will be pressing into to correct, review, and validate the work prior to pre-publication.
PUBLICATION PROCESS PERFORMANCE
-
When you go into the Processing Room you will be going through different steps to ensure that the work product (manuscript transformation into book) is correct and complete. Once you make the final approval of the work product sections, the manuscript will be assembled into a digital book by the publisher for a final review. When you sign-off the approval of the work, the book will receive an ISBN & Barcode and then sent into pre-publication for a review with our printing and distribution houses to make sure that we didn't miss any steps prior to actual publication.
LAUNCHING YOUR BOOK
-
When everything is in order and all documents are signed; given the green light to the publisher, the publisher will make the book available to the public at a global distribution level through the online database system so that booksellers can have knowledge and access of your now published book.
