Unpublished Authors:
As an aspiring author you can list an electronic version of your manuscript in the Crestbooks book store at the cost of $39.50 per manuscript. By doing so, you become your own publisher, editor and author. Crestbooks immediately becomes your retail bookstore outlet. Each subscription will list a single manuscript for the duration of six months. You will retain all legal ownership rights to your manuscript. As your books sell, you will receive royalties at the rate of $5.00 for each book sold. Books will sell for a flat rate of $8.00 per copy.
Well published authors on average receive $3.50 per copy after paying large upfront publishing costs. You will receive better returns without the expense or risk right here at Crestbooks.
This process is considerably more affordable than traditional publishing methods and provides a immediate medium to expose your manuscript to a vast world of readers. If yours is one of the many manuscripts rejected by the mainstream publishing companies each year... this is the outlet for you.
Authors retain all rights and ownership of their manuscript and can remove them from the book shelf upon written notice or e-mail.
Crestbooks will receive your manuscript, deposit it directly onto our bookshelf in PDF format making it immediately available to the public as an "ebook". There is no reason your manuscript can't be selling today. You could be one of the many authors receiving quarterly royalty checks from Crestbooks
Note: All manuscripts made available by Crestbooks are in PDF format. For information on how to convert your manuscript... click here - 'How to create a PDF file'
