I am thrilled and 100% pleased with iUniverse. I started out with some reservations, but they were for naught. Each consultant was extraordinary. The proceedings throughout were most professional, helpful, and friendly, resulting in a book I am so proud of. IUniverse is a found gem and a blessing to writers and readers!.

IUniverse is an excellent self-publishing company. They are responsive, supportive, and incredibly helpful: especially the editorial staff and publishing staff. Their input and feedback is outstanding and we found the additional line editing to be very worthwhile. The result is a professionally published book that is polished and beautiful.

I've published five novels with iUniverse and the latest is always the most rewarding. Quick and easy, five weeks and its in my hands. Christ Kennedy, Paladin:An Origin Story.

Straightforward great associates

I would definitely recommend iUniverse for new writers. They are helpful and communicate with the author regularly. When it comes to marketing, be prepared to say no to some of the offers unless you are wealthy. It would be nice if the marketing group could lay out all the possibilities in writing so the author could know at the outset of marketing what to pick and choose.

Well... Where do I start? I'm still walking along my journey... a journey that I allowed iUniverse to become apart of... I called them a few times before I jointed and I finally took the plunge in (2015) Fast forward to 2019 and I am now an author doing book signings within different areas and cities! Now, "hold up!" In me saying all this I want most would be iUniverse customers and soon to be authors to understand something... A BOOK DOES "NOT!" I REPEAT DOES "NOT!" SELL OR WRITE ITSELF!!!! If you aren't already coming to iUniverse with a loose plan for when, where, how, and why to promote and sell your book? I'm sorry... but, you're already "lost!" So, before going ahead and proceeding with your dreams... first ask yourself... "What is my dream?" Do you really want to be an author? Or, do you simply like the "idea" of being an author? These are both two different things... and only those who are in it for the passion and grind will last... Heart stays, the not so passionate will fall off... You know what though? There isn't anything wrong with that either, because in life we have to try different things before we find our "thing!" But hey... if you're someone who really wants to write a book, please do understand that this is a journey and not necessary a race... Not till you finish your completed transcript that is :) Note: Even for myself... although I already gauged, locked and loaded to unleash my material... I was ignorant towards the whole process... That process being that you will not be the same person finishing your book as the person you were while starting... So, to sum and close everything off I will say pick your dreams, fights, passions and projects wisely... :) There is also no right nor wrong answer here... Intuition will lead you...

I am having a great experience in publishing my first book. The editor's help me re-evaluate the Content outline. This encouraged me to put the chapters in a more natural order. This made a difference. Also, editing my transcript showed me they are high level. The Design team was also terrific. They turned two suggestions into two possible mock ups. I suggested putting the two together. The book cover is amazing. It looks great !!. The color combination with the lettering is great. I am so glad I to be with iUniverse.. The Marketing Consultant was very encouraging. She enabled me to get additional features that will help me greatly.in getting the book sold more.The company enabled me get on the Editor's Choice. I'm impressed. When I went on iUniverse's website and found my book, it made me feel good. We got it done.
