I am very grateful to Josh and Ryan for helping me to publish my mother’s memoir. I was not the ideal client as I have a very busy life, but they were there on a daily basis coaching me through the process. The cover is beautifully designed and I am very happy with the layout. As promised, her book is on Amazon, Kindle and Barnes and Noble and we have been receiving royalties. I highly recommend this option. The press release option was well written and sent to an extensive list of outlets. Josh and Ryan delivered on all of their promises and I appreciate the patience they extended to me and their personal support of my 96 year old mother’s dream! Highly recommend!

A very small book but I was treated well

They are concerned about the details. Their revised texts had a few mistakes, but the formatting was high quality.

First Ozay and Taylor Michael are awesome people to work with if you are thinking about getting your manuscripts published. The company is easy to work with and they do what they say they will do. They offer many services to serve your every need after publishing. You can choose the road you wish to travel and they will be there to assist you. I have had a bad experience with another company so I am speaking from experience when I say any additional books I decide to publish in the future Anderson Publishing will be my first call. They are super to work with especially as a first time writer being published. Your success is their business.

Anderson publishers helped me believe that the book they are publishing for me will do really well. They have accommodated my financial situation and I couldn't be anymore happier than I am. Also, ava whom I have been working with has been so amazing. I couldn't ask for anyone better to assist me and my needs. Thank you to ava and anderson publishing.

If there were a zero-star option, that is what I would give Anderson Publishers. My experience with this company was extremely disappointing and costly. It involved repeated delays, unauthorized or unapproved changes, poor formatting, pricing mistakes, weak communication, and a lack of accountability when problems were raised. I hired Anderson Publishers expecting professional support with publishing, formatting, cover design, copyright filing, and promotional materials. Instead, I spent months correcting issues that should not have happened in the first place. One of my first major concerns was the cover design. I was promised a unique 3D cover, but the final result did not match that expectation. In my experience, it felt much closer to a lightly modified version of a concept image I had shared rather than a truly original design. I was also frustrated by changes that appeared to move forward without the level of clear approval I expected. The formatting process created additional problems. Errors were introduced into my manuscript, and I had to spend a significant amount of time catching and correcting issues myself. Some formatting choices were not professional and reduced my confidence in the quality of the final product. I also had serious concerns about the copyright service. I paid approximately $1,200 for copyright-related work, which felt excessive given the actual filing cost. I was also concerned that the copyright filing may have been submitted before the manuscript was fully finalized, because the word count associated with the filing did not appear to match the final length of my book. Despite repeated requests, I did not receive the level of documentation and clarity I was expecting regarding that process. There were also pricing issues that directly affected me financially. My book was listed at a price I had not expected, which reduced or eliminated royalties I should have received. I also was not properly prepared for how color images would impact printing costs, especially for the hardcover edition. As a result, the final retail price was much higher than I had intended. I also paid $300 for a one-minute cinematic promotional video, and I was very unhappy with what I received. It included content and visual choices that did not accurately reflect my book. I rejected the video and requested a refund, but that was not resolved to my satisfaction. On top of all that, the project experienced repeated delays. I was given multiple expected timeframes, and those dates kept moving. That loss of time mattered. It affected not only my release plans, but also time in my personal life that I cannot get back. What made this experience especially frustrating was the pattern: when problems came up, I often felt like I had to do the heavy lifting to identify, explain, and push for corrections rather than receiving proactive professional support. To be fair, the company has clear areas where it could improve: 1. Better quality control before files are sent to authors 2. Clear written approval before any design, formatting, or pricing changes are finalized 3. Greater transparency around copyright, ISBN, and promotional service charges 4. More accurate communication about production timelines 5. Better follow-through when refunds, corrections, or proof of services are requested I am sharing this review based on my own experience as a warning to other authors. I would strongly encourage anyone considering this company to ask detailed questions in writing, request proof of every paid service, and carefully review every stage before approving anything.

I am very grateful for the patience and effort shown during the formatting of my book. Their book formatting was excellent, and communication was always clear and respectful. Anderson Publishers has an outstanding and hardworking team for any type of book formatting.

I’ve had two books edited by Anderson Publishers. Their feedback and suggestions were thoughtful and really helped to improve my work. I think their service is a reasonable price, and I love that they review a sample first to tailor the editing to your needs. I highly recommend Anderson Publishers for your editorial needs.
