I paid 5,000 to have my book published. They had a contract that says if they do not sell 1,000 books in 6 months you can get a full refund. Not even close. In fact my book is still selling and I believe they are stealing my royalties since I have a friend that bought one and also I have received no money in my bank account fore 3 or more months. The people there are either of Indian or Pakastan descent by the accent. Do not trust this company. Harvey Jones A Simple Kansas. I survived!

Americas Book Writing - DO NOT TRUST THEM
Americas Book Writing is a mixed bag of publishing packages. On the positive side, they did a good job on creating and hosting/supporting my author website. However, I invested $xx,xxx on what they called global distribution. I was promised that I would at least double my investment and that I would have been crazy to turn down this package. However, I have not seen a dime from it. I requested a "cash out" for the global distribution over a month ago and was told that I had $xx,xxx coming to me. An ABW rep had given their word that I would be getting the "cash out" on three occasions. Once I called them on it, I have been ghosted and have not heard from them.
DO NOT TRUST Americas Book Writing with this kind of publishing package.

A Scam Company With A Pretty Webpage
I hired Americas Book Writing at the Platinum Level to help market my new book which was just being published. My book received several excellent reviews on Amazon, but this company broke its promise to me of selling a guaranteed 6,000 books. In fact, they sold exactly ZERO books for me.
My contract stated that 40% of my investment would go directly to advertising. In my case, I paid $7,500.00, which calculates to a healthy $3,000.00. This was a lie, as not a penny of my investment was spent on advertising. They couldn't even put a keyword campaign together for me.
Following a request to my representative to assist me with a simple cover design on Lulu, they entirely botched the job. At this point, I requested a refund, to which they responded with a phony contract for 2,500 book sales in NYC. (The contract date passed, and they told me the deal had fallen through.)
As I persisted with a request to honor their contract and return my funds, they ceased communication with me. Even the homepage chat refused to answer my messages.
Upon investigation, I discovered that the two addresses of this company, (the one on the homepage and the other under the name Silicon Tech, were both fake.)
Fellow writer, there are other resources out there that are legit, but America's Book Writing is not one of them. Save yourself a world of hurt and avoid them like the plague.

Do not give them anything huge scam
They take advantage of people pretty badly. Never give them any money because once you do, they won’t do anything. They have a guarantee of sales but don’t fulfill this. They will constantly ask you to upgrade or pay thousands of dollars more. They handed my project off to someone else and he asked for another 1500 just for web hosting when Godaddy charges this for 100 dollars.
When I didn’t pay he didn’t do anything. I already paid 2000 for marketing and nothing was done. Once someone made a comment such as “we’re still doing this even though you already paid.” They’re a big scam and do not give them a dime.

Undeniably a Scam
Lots of false promises, and even though you sign a contract guaranteeing sales or your money back, they’ll ghost you after they make 0 sales and you will NOT get your money back. It’s a scam, please avoid. (Was with them for a year and no sales, but lots of attempts at upselling)

Beware
Beware! Beware!
Definitely avoid this company ABW
(American Bookwriting) that promises, but does not deliver. I paid a substantial amount of money to them …….and then I was ghosted. They went dark. No Communication. Jay Cooper, Ben Andrews, Michael Kenway, and Rachel Hayes are individuals who string you along, stall, delay, make more promises and then poof… they are gone. They completely failed the “Golden Rule” standard.
They showed a lack of integrity, honor, and professionalism. I lost the bulk of my money I sent to them. Do not be fooled. Avoid them. They are not trustworthy.

Stay away from them
Stay away from them. Don’t be fooled. They have marketing packages yet are unable to market your books without you having to pay money for additional plug ins. They are a huge scam. They will keep asking for more money and it’s absurd. I paid for a package and it wasn’t enough. They want thousands more dollars and act like it’s no big deal.

Run around
It seems like their game is to mess up people’s book project and then when People try to cancel, they turn into Ghost.
They don’t even have a website, so you can download your manuscript. I told them that if you email the manuscript the margins and pictures will be off. Also, they stall your project and try to get more money out of you for a promotional campaign. They claim to have all these people that can help you with your illustrations, but they get the pictures from other people work.
When I went to their website, I could not find any of the books on their website or in stores. Check for yourself.
