Are You a Writer in Search of a Publisher?
At Room 272 Press we like to provide new authors assistance with access to the world of professional publication. We can help you make your dream a reality.
What We Do
You write. We publish. It's that simple. If we agree your project is appropriate for the Room 272 Press brand, we'll get to work for you to make your dream a reality. If we accept your project, all we ask is that you submit a digital copy (Microsoft Word preferred -- no paper manuscripts can be accepted) of your book. We will then prepare your book for publication as an electronic book and a soft cover book and place your book for sale on the world-wide web. You determine the price of your books. The only fee for our basic service is incorporated into the price of each book sold. This fee is in addition to the actual publication cost. We will collect all royalties, deduct our per-book fee and issue your check. The remaining amount is yours to keep -- except, of course, the part you owe to Uncle Sam. Note that for tax purposes you will be considered an independent contractor, and we will file statements with the U.S. Government, requiring you complete US tax form W-9 for our records , and you will receive an annual 1099 MISC form (reporting royalty earnings) from us. We are not accountants, so we strongly urge that you consult with your accountant before spending any of your royalties.
What We Don't Do
Our basic publication services do not include editing or other forms of text review such as spelling correction or fact-checking. You accept total responsibility for the content and quality of your work. You assure that you hold full and proper international copyright ownership to any works submitted. Editorial services are available for an additional fee, scaled according to the level of service desired. In order to best represent the intent of your work, we ask you to provide the necessary additional information that goes into creating a professionally published work - "About the Author", book cover wording, etc. Basic book cover creation is
included in our services, but additional graphic services are available at additional cost. "Graphics-heavy" manuscripts with tables, photos, captions, etc. may incur additional fees which will be negotiated prior to beginning any work on publication.
Aggressive and skilled marketing of books is critical for commercial success. Even well-known authors such as former Presidents of the United States get out and shake hands and sign copies to ensure sales of their books. As a publishing house, we do not serve as literary agents or publicity departments for our writers, but we certainly encourage you to use any and all resources to market your book. We want you to write the next great best-seller!
