Publishing options today are many, with different kinds of book publishers and publishing services being offered. If you’re planning to self-publish and you want to do it well, you’ll need professional publishing services. You also need to research well to make sure that you’re not getting scammed. We recommend joining the Alliance of Independent Authors to get reliable publishing information, advice and service providers. Their partner members are vetted for integrity. We are a partner member ourselves.

Editing
Our editing services include manuscript appraisals to identify where your book could improve, line and copy editing, and proofreading. We work to both UK and US conventions (Chicago Manual of Style).
Book Cover Design & Formatting
A one-stop service for all your self-publishing file needs. Get covers for both ebook and paperback and the interior files for both from the same provider. Rose, our book designer will create ebook and paperback covers and interiors specifically for your book.
Learning to produce files that meet printer and ebook publishers’ requirements takes a huge amount of time, and the process of getting them right can cause major headaches for self-publishers. Avoid the frustration by having a professional do them for you.
Images for Social Media Book Marketing
Having a social media presence helps authors to get known and so helps them sell books. But if your content (what you post) isn’t quality, then it will get lost amid the noise. To grab people’s attention, you need visual imagery that get’s your message across in a glance. Our graphic designer, Rose, creates a variety of images (both video and stills) to help promote your book.
Assisted Self-Publishing Service – Escarpment Publishing
If your book doesn’t meet the requirements for inclusion in AIA Publishing’s titles – for example, children’s books, family and local histories, picture books and non-narrative memoirs – but is still worthy of publishing, we can do it all for you under our Escarpment Publishing imprint. Escarpment Publishing is one of the assisted self-publishing book publishers that are popular with authors who want to self-publish but don’t want to do it all themselves.
