HELPING NEW AUTHORS GET PUBLISHED
Writing a book you want to see published? With over 50 years of experience in marketing, design and publishing (both fiction and non-fiction), as well as writing our own works, we’ve been on both sides of the publishing fence. We know the quality and services you want from a publisher, and what the publisher needs from an author.
First Steps Publishing is selective in the books we choose to publish, producing only 3-5 titles/year. To submit your work for consideration, visit our Get Published page.
