WHAT YOU GET FOR £800 (READ MORE)

For a basic fee of just £800 (or $1600), Diadem Books can edit your manuscript and publish it in an attractive paperback format, with a cover in full colour.  Your book will be available for sale from all major on-line bookstores such as Amazon Books, the largest internet bookseller, and Barnes and Noble, one of the largest bookstore chains in America.

Frequently writers, unable to find a publisher, fall into the trap of paying thousands of pounds or dollars to a Vanity Publisher for a limited amount of printed books which fail to find a market. The small fee charged by Diadem, on the other hand, is for specific services. In the first instance, your manuscript needs to be checked carefully for errors. If the manuscript is regarded as marketable, editorial revisions will be made — with the author’s approval. Diadem Books will continue to assist, both in the proofreading and cover design. Promoting the published book will be part of the service — when the book is marketed from the Diadem web site.
