I received the following email this week:

I am editing a collection of sermons for publication. Some companies seem like a lot of work and we don’t have the professional support we need to do it right. We are strongly considering submitting to Covenant Books or Christian Faith Publishing, but we are not sure what we would be getting into. You seem like a straight shooter. What advice can you give us.

This was my response:

Just because a company claims they are Christian doesn’t mean you should blindly trust them. Far from it! I previously wrote this article:
So-called Christian Publishers Can Be Wolves in Sheep’s Clothing

You should also read this:
COMPLAINTS about Christian Faith Publishing / ChristianFaithPublishing.com

Regarding Covenant Books, the complaints on BetterBusinessBureau.org speak for themselves.

Don’t let the “A” rating fool you. See:
Angela explains why an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau is TOTAL B.S.!

I strongly encourage you to submit your manuscript to BookLocker. We make the process extremely easy for authors and we have an excellent reputation. 🙂

About The Author

Angela Hoy is the publisher of WritersWeekly.com, the author of 19 books, and the co-owner of BookLocker.com (one of the original POD publishers that still gets books to market in less than a month), PubPreppers.com (print and ebook design for authors who truly want to self-publish), and Abuzz Press (the publishing co-op that charges no setup fees).

Angela has lived and traveled across the U.S. with her kids in an RV, settled in a river-side home in Bradenton, FL, and lived on a 52 ft Irwin sailboat. Angela now resides on a mountaintop in Northwest Georgia, where she plans to spend the rest of her days bird watching, gardening, hiking, and taking in all of the amazing sunrises.

WritersWeekly.com - the free marketing ezine for writers, which features new paying markets and freelance job listings every Wednesday.

BookLocker.com - According to attorney Mark Levine, author of The Fine Print, BookLocker is: "As close to perfection as you're going to find in the world of ebook and POD publishing. The ebook royalties are the highest I've ever seen, and the print royalties are better than average. BookLocker understands what new authors experience, and have put together a package that is the best in the business. You can't go wrong here. Plus, they're selective and won't publish any manuscript just because it's accompanied by a check. Also, the web site is well trafficked. If you can find a POD or epublisher with as much integrity and dedication to selling authors' books, but with lower POD publishing fees, please let me know."

Abuzz Press offers FAST and FREE book publication, but only accepts a small percentage of submissions, and only works with U.S. authors.

PubPreppers.com - "We Prep, You Publish!" Print and ebook design for authors who truly want to self-publish. Offers formatting and design services only, and then provides simple instructions for authors on where to sign up to have the print and ebook editions printed/listed/sold. Cut out the middle man. Keep 100% of what bookstores pay for your book!

Angela's POD Secrets Revealed Series can be found HERE.

Have a POD Book with another publisher? See if BookLocker can give you a better deal. (BookLocker offers "disgruntled author discounts" to those who want to move from other POD services.)
