Book Publishing

Your manuscript. Its next chapter.

A finished manuscript is the beginning of a different kind of work. We help you make the decisions, prepare the files, and navigate the steps between a draft and a book ready for release.

A CLOSER LOOK

The thinking
behind the work.

01

Choose a route that fits the book

We begin with your audience, goals, manuscript, and preferred formats. A publishing roadmap sets out the editorial and design work still needed, the platform options to consider, and the decisions you will approve. Production and third-party costs are identified in the project scope.

02

Prepare the details readers never see

Trim size, typography, cover dimensions, metadata, and digital navigation all affect the finished book. We coordinate these decisions before final export, check the files against the selected platform’s specifications, and flag issues for correction before submission.

03

Release with a clear handover

We can assist with author-controlled accounts on Amazon KDP, IngramSpark, Apple Books, Google Play Books, Kobo, or B&N Press where suitable. You review listings and proofs before release. Platform review, territory availability, fees, and approval remain with the platform.

BEFORE WE BEGIN

Clear expectations make better projects.

The schedule depends on editorial readiness, design revisions, proof copies, and platform review. Publishing support does not guarantee bookstore placement or sales.

USEFUL TO KNOW

Your questions,
considered.

Visit the full FAQ
01Is this traditional publishing?

Eclipse offers publishing services scoped to your project. It is not an offer of a traditional publishing acquisition or an advance. Deliverables, fees, rights, and responsibilities should be agreed in writing before work begins.

02Do I need an ISBN?

That depends on your format, platform, and publishing route. We can explain the options and help you prepare the information required. ISBN ownership, registration costs, and imprint details should be decided before production.
