Rushmore Press - Literary AgencyReviews of rushmorepress.com

Hello! My name is Shamane Howe. I had to move forward with a copyright infringement on Rushmore Press and I am now being threatened with them doing a bogus press release saying that they have emails that they sent my edited video when they first made it. That’s not the video I am wanting. They are trying to keep my trailer that I paid for, for some reason. I have submitted evidence to the BBB and to Amazon and couple other companies to put them on notice about this company. I would like to send TrustPilot several emails of them giving me their word that they would send me my video and that they owed me nothing. Although I never received royalties. Please do your research on this company. Now this guy is emailing me saying that my email is troubling and that TrustPilot is going to drop me for extortion!!! I don’t know what these people are on but it’s not good! I find that hard to believe because TODAY was the first day that you’re able to admit that I am still owed! At least that’s what all our back and forth emails are saying. I am also taking this seriously enough to make a police report because I really don’t know what your company is capable of. You just said that I was trying to extort you. That I am spamming and lying! All are false! Please unless you’re sending my video or my money STOP Contacting me. Please go through your Attorney. Also my mother has been dead! She died years ago! She couldn’t have given permission from the grave nor pay for anything! She was on assistance and only made $700 a month so I guess that’s a another LIE he’s trying to claim as real and a insult! Defamation. How Professional! Then he is saying that I am refusing my royalties but I have countless emails and Complaints to the BBB and TrustPilot saying that I want my money! He never stated that I refused the money until today!! All the other 99 times I emailed them or filed a complaint he told them that I had already been paid! Today you asked for my check account! If you sent it before where did you send it? I sure don’t have it! I asked him to send me how much did I make in total including what he considers his cut and he called that extortion!! Another thing what kind of company keeps sending emails at 11:17pm to argue instead of fixing the problem by sending me my video! Rushmore Press! That’s who! He keeps saying that I have issues… only because I am not allowing him to bamboozle me anymore! If anyone wants to any of our emails please leave me a message. Update 2/10/2026 I found out today that Rushmore Press is still selling my book on Amazon! It’s not a third party seller.,. How is that possible when I am no longer with them?! This company is a scam! They are taking Authors books and money!the copy of my cancellation agreement to @Trustpilot @BBB and @Amazon

I recently became apart of the Rushmore Press family (less than four months) and thus far, I am extremely pleased with their performance. The customer service is outstanding. Both Michael Yang and Beth Oliver are kind, very professional and knowledgeable. They listen to my concerns, provided feedback, guidance and suggestions. They respond within a timely manner to my emails and phone calls. The creation of my book cover is outstanding! The cover designer captured my thoughts and ideas amazingly. Great Work! I am extremely happy with this company (thus far). I am looking forward to the final release of this first project and a long successful future with more to come as a member of the Rushmore family. I strongly recommend this company if you are searching for a company who truly cares about you as a customer and one that will work hard to treat you as a family member.

Everyone with whom I had contact was helpful, pleasant and I would recommend them.

I love working with the Rushmore Press. Very efficient, understanding, and professional. They definitely know what they are doing and how to get things done in a timely manner. They listen to their clients attentively and I'm so excited to work with them on future projects.

I found the attention to detail in the final review and editing of my manuscript to be impressive! It was not what I expected. I have been writing for a long time, and I actually learned a lot from the corrections made and explanations for the changes. I look forward to working with Rushmore Press on the completion of this project!

I am very pleased with my experience with Rushmore Press thus far. The cover design is better than I had expected. The contact I've had with staff members, especially Beth, has been very appropriate and helpful. Equally important, I have been contacted only when it has been necessary concerning the publication--no one has called me concerning a payment.

I have felt highly respected and valued as an author by Beth Oliver. She has consistently done her best to understand my queries, needs and requests, and has followed through with clarity. I feel satisfied with the outcome of working with Rushford Press, thanks to Ms. Oliver. Treat her well and observe and learn from her. She is a true credit to Rushmore.

Rushmore Press has given me such an exciting experience while publishing my first children’s book. My project manager Beth Oliver has been so helpful and answered all of my questions along the way. She always returned my phone calls and e-mails right away. She was very patient with the many changes I kept submitting until the book was just right. I am very pleased with this publishing company and I can’t wait to start writing a new book and do the process all over again.
