It is a great pleasure and satisfaction to see one’s work published in book form.  We at Prospect Press work with our authors to publish books of quality and lasting value that will be a source of pride and pleasure for years to come.  We look forward to working with you on publication of your book and wish you every success with your writing.

Many writers and poets with a completed manuscript that they would like to have published in book form are faced with the question: “What do I do next?”

Writers of works that are worthy of publication often find that being published by a commercial press is not available to them for a variety of reasons -- their work may be too specialized or the audience for it too limited.  Many find that sending manuscripts to commercial houses or to agents involves a great deal of unfruitful time.  It is common wisdom that there are too many potential authors pursuing too few commercial publishing opportunities and, as a rule, commercial publishers simply cannot afford to gamble on the first-time or newer author.

Prospect Press, a full-service subsidy publisher, offers professional service and assistance to writers who wish to see their work published in book form, including fiction, nonfiction, poetry, memoirs, and other works.  As a subsidy publisher, Prospect receives payment from the author for handling all the complexities of bookmaking -- copy-editing, design, layout, typesetting, printing, and binding.  Prospect also offers post-publication services such as marketing, fulfillment, and warehousing.  For those who wish to self-publish, Prospect offers the expertise and experience that may not otherwise be available to an author to produce a book of professional quality.

Over the years, many authors, especially unpublished first-time authors, have decided to self-publish or have turned to subsidy presses as a means to bring their work to a wider audience.  Prospect Press, formed by experienced publishers, offers writers professional service and personal commitment in producing quality books.

Our web site will give you an overview of the Prospect Press publishing process and what you can expect, along with a question-and-answer section addressing questions that writers have raised.  We will also be happy to address any specific questions that you may have.  As an author-oriented company, we will consult with you throughout the publishing process and publish a book that we will both take pride in.  As experienced publishers, we know the effort involved in writing your manuscript and we understand its importance.  You will find that Prospect Press believes in working with you in a professional, courteous manner.
