Welcome to Full-Service Book Publishing - Basic Package 
​Our book project management team makes it easier for you.

Thank you for your interest in the book service branch of Speak Through Me Communications. Our goal is to help you get your book out of your head and into your hand. The easiest way we know to accomplish this objective is to do the tedious part for you. That’s right. We manage all the cumbersome details of self publishing so you can focus on writing. We take care of all the book issues. 

Although we do other things, our focus is on formatting, editing, and designing a book of which you will be proud. We’ve broken it into a few key areas.

Interior file setup
Layout (page setup - design)

We want your book to look first-rate!

Other Things We Include
  • Strategy session (book development)
  • ISBN

  • Proof/sample copy
  • Promotional flyer
  • Listing on Amazon 
  • Polished author bio, book description, and back cover content (based on client submission)
  • Purchase more books whenever you wish, at rock bottom pricing

Important Stuff and Legal Stuff You Need To Do
  • Have the legal authority to publish this book
  • Have permission for quotes or images you use
  • If using scriptures, include the Bible version(s) – double check reference
  • Submit signed Statement of Agreement with paid invoice
  • Complete and submit all requested information
  • Complete directives for taxes and royalties
  • Decide on a price for your book. We’ll offer a few ideas.
 
What We Don’t Do
We are firm in the belief that when God gives you a message, you need to share what God gives you. As needed, we will clean up grammatical issues or anything that is potentially confusing to the reader. We do minor rewrites for clarity, flow, and design. If necessary, we will make edits that are more substantial. To the best of our knowledge, we will make content adjustments for legal purposes. ​Rest assured it is not our intent to change your message. Write what God gives you.
 
We do not assume rights over your material. What you write is yours. You retain all legal rights to your work.
 
Sadly, we make no guarantees that you will become a bestselling author overnight or ever. However, in our post strategy session we have added ideas for publicity. It's an indispensable education that can help you to 
  • determine your speaker topic(s),
  • develop ideas for list-building, products, programs, services, and passive income,

Speakers write and writers speak. It's rare to get around that one. Public speaking is one of the best ways to get the word out about your book. And, having your own book is one of the best ways to add credibility to your speaking. 


Please Note
We specialize in Christian, nonfiction, perfect bound (softcover) books. The estimated time is 4 to 6 months from the official start date (when we receive your approved files, requested information, authorization, initial deposit, etc.). We will work with you toward a reasonable time if you need your book expedited.
 
Cost - $2500
Your investment is based on an estimated 25,000 word count, black and white interior. Expect an additional charge for color interiors, images, or books that exceed 50,000.
 
I look forward to an opportunity to work together because …
 
I love turning writers into authors!

Manuscript Submissions

As much as we would love to work with you, we cannot take on every project. Please submit your manuscript for review to see if we will be right for this venture. Be mindful this is a niche service.  In order to give you our best, we prefer to limit our consideration of books. We work with adults who desire to self publish an uplifting, faith-based, nonfiction book. We manage teaching workbooks, self help, and other similar types of books,  workbooks, and journals as well.

    Use the following form to submit your manuscript for review.

    Please submit as a PDF or MS Word file.
    Based on our current client workload, expect a minimum of 3  weeks for processing.
    Max file size: 20MB
Submit for Consideration
Expect a minimum of 3 weeks for review.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Dell's Head to Hand Writer's Workshops provide a simple but fun coaching technique that releases the author within you. I thank Dell for taking my dream and making it a reality.
                    —Cynthia King, author




Dell works with both writers and speakers. She is a trained public speaker coach who helped me impart my story with what to do and how to speak publicly. Most of all, she empowered me and eased my anxiety of public speaking through a variety of insightful tips and techniques. I am blessed to know her as a speech coach.
        —Dr. Claudett Whitley Williams
