You wrote the book. You don't have to figure out publishing by yourself.
Your manuscript is finished. Now comes everything that turns it into an actual published book. Maybe you only want to get your book onto Amazon. Maybe you want wider distribution and the publishing pieces handled properly. Or maybe you want to walk away with a published book and the tools to start promoting it. That's why Assisted Publishing isn't one-size-fits-all. Choose the level of support that fits what you're building.

BEFORE YOUR BOOK ENTERS PUBLISHING
Assisted Publishing is designed for completed manuscripts that are ready to move into production. Manuscript editing and proofreading are not included in your publishing package.
If additional editing is needed, we’ll let you know before moving forward.
YOUR BOOK. YOUR RIGHTS. YOUR ROYALTIES.
Your book belongs to you.
You retain ownership of your work and your royalties. Publishing accounts created for your project remain under your control, and you’ll receive your completed publishing files once your project is complete and your balance has been paid.
Healing Time Publishing does not take a percentage of your ongoing royalties.
HAVE A RELEASE DATE IN MIND?
Tell us.
We’ll take your desired release date into consideration when planning your project, but Healing Time Publishing does not guarantee publication or completion dates.
There are parts of the publishing process outside of our control, including author approvals, revisions, proof copies, registrations, and third-party publishing platforms.
ALREADY HAVE YOUR FILES READY?
If your interior and cover files are already publication-ready and you simply need help getting your book uploaded, you don’t need a full Assisted Publishing package.
