I've done 2 books with BookFuel, and it's been a pleasure working with my team. My books are poetry collections: beat poetry and free verse and it's a long haul getting an audience but they don't seem to mind my laid back approach to publicity. I've gotten royality payments so the books are selling slowly but surely. I intend to use bookfuel for all my projects and I'm very satisfied with their service

Publishing a novel as complex and hard-hitting as The Great Game of Scruples: Masterpiece of Post-Colonial Doublespeak requires a team that truly understands the weight of the message. My experience with BookFuel was exceptional, and I cannot recommend them highly enough for authors looking to bring their vision to life. A very special thank you goes to Kevin Butler and Frank Riley. Their belief in this project from the very beginning was a cornerstone of its success. They provided invaluable guidance and insight, showing a tireless effort in shaping the manuscript into its final, most impactful form. The high-quality editing provided by Kevin and Frank was instrumental in ensuring that the journey of Mamadou Cissé and the critique of "The Algorithm" resonated with the intellectual violence and satirical wit intended. BookFuel didn't just provide a service; they became a community of thinkers who refused to accept the "Labyrinth" as inevitable. If you are an author looking for a production team that offers both technical excellence and genuine passion for storytelling, look no further than the team at BookFuel. Oluwatayo Shoneye, Author

BookFuel are a dedicated and friendly team who helped bring my vision to life. Frank, Aaron, Sam, and Kevin were fantastic in all aspects of our working relationship. The editing phase was fast-paced, while their work was consistent and within a reasonable time frame. Editing and publishing can be slow, stressful, with many obstacles and speed bumps along the way. BookFuel made the process streamlined and smooth, without stalling or excuses. There are many dishonest companies who take your money, waste your time, and harrass you for more investment - but still fail to deliver. While BookFuel were upfront and straightforward, continually ticking off every element in our agreement.

I’ve published books both with a major publisher and by self-publishing, so when I began preparing my newest work, The Temple Within, I knew I wanted to go fully independent but with professional support. I started by researching self-publishing service companies that could handle the essentials—ISBN assignment, cover design, formatting, pricing consultation, and distribution. I narrowed my list down to three and conducted phone interviews. BookFuel quickly became the frontrunner, but I wanted to be sure. I searched Amazon for recent BookFuel titles and reached out to six authors directly. Two responded, and both gave positive feedback about their experience. That was enough for me to request a contract. After a little back and forth to clarify what I wanted in writing, I signed and got started. From there, the process was smooth and impressive. They asked me to complete a simple cover questionnaire, and within 48 hours I had a draft design. It was nearly perfect on the first try—just a few font adjustments, and it captured the spirit of my manuscript beautifully. The real test came with formatting. The Temple Within is a 455-page book of essays exploring Freemasonry. It’s closer to a textbook in complexity than a standard narrative. The formatting team and I exchanged three rounds of revisions by email, and they were consistently responsive, professional, and detail-oriented. When the final version was ready, BookFuel uploaded it seamlessly to the major outlets. I didn’t fully realize the quality of their work until a recent community event, when two men brought me copies of my book—one in trade paperback, the other in hardcover. I hadn’t even received my author copies yet. Seeing them in person, I was stunned. They were gorgeous. The writing was mine, but BookFuel had elevated the presentation to match my vision. That experience sealed it for me. Before the day was out, I signed, paid, and submitted the manuscript for my next book, Chasing the Surge: 10,000 Rides into the American Night. I’m excited to see how they handle this very different nonfiction memoir. And as I draft my first true fiction project, The Carter Rituals, there’s no question—I’ll be turning to BookFuel again. BookFuel isn’t just a service provider; they’re a partner in bringing an author’s vision to life. My journey with them has been one of professionalism, responsiveness, and results.

Working with Jim Xaviour and his team in publishing my book "Remembering Operation Python Dance II: A Fulani Nigerian Effort To Sustain The Genocide Against Igbos And Other Peoples of Southeastern Nigeria" was my best experience in assisted self-publishing. Jim provided excellent leadership through listening to me and also guiding me with detailed explanation of how to achieve my purpose. Response time for all stages of editing and reviews were great from his end. I loved what I saw of the book digitally but when I got my author copy from Amazon, I was wowed by the quality of the work that Jim and his team at Bookfuel did.

I had a previous publishing company that took 3-4 weeks just to write their version of one chapter. I was with the previous publisher for 19 months and still had 4 more chapters to finish. I css as me across BookFuel on the website. They were astonished how long my book was taking by the previous publisher. Bookfuel told me they have a Designer to design the outside of my book while the writer works on my chapters. Barry oversaw every aspect of my book. I was amazed how Barry oversaw every department & aspect of my book being finished. Great job BookFuel!
