The premise of Glorybound Publishing Pay-for-Services is that, we feel authors are increasingly knowledgeable and should not be offered a ‘package’ which does not provide for their needs. We prefer individualized service recognizing some authors may be able to complete their book in 4 sessions while others may take 20 because they need more help or their book is more complex. If authors are able to complete more of the process themselves, shouldn’t they benefit from it? We pass the savings on to the author. We do not hold copyrights or contracts. [Kind of like Staples when you hand them a photo to blow up; they blow it up and return it to you.] We do the same. We do whatever services the author or publisher needs and [essentially] hand it back. 

The author owns all of their own files—we just help with the knowledge and technical part of publishing. This makes publishing extremely reasonable for authors willing to dig in and do the work to present us with ‘clean files’ for publishing. 

We will bring in a manuscript [in whatever format] the author has—and continue to work with him/her to bring it up to professional standards for grammar, editing and format. That is part of the process—and the unique beauty of working with Glorybound Publishing. 

Publishing Services Consultation [$95] is the first meeting which lasts between 45 min and 1 hour. And then we will schedule up to 2 hr session [$190].

1. The author will be given an opportunity to show their project [at whatever state it is in] to the publisher. 
2. The author provides their goals for the project.
3. The Publisher presents similar books which have been published by this office with their outcomes showing options for the outcome of the project. Perhaps there is something the author has not thought of, but will potentially be beneficial for it. The experience of the Publisher is helpful.
4. Market analysis of the genre and/or book will be provided using book marketing software. Example: Is anyone interested in buying a book like this? How much are similar books selling for and how much are others making on them? How many books are on the market? 
5. What is needed by the publisher to get started with the process? File formats, copyright releases, etc. 
6. The Publisher provides an estimate of how many sessions it will take to reach their goals. The sessions are generally 2 hours long and cost $209 with tax. Payment is expected at the close of each session. All forms of payment are Zelle, Venmo, Paypal, Credit Card, cash, or check. 
7. When the author is ready to begin the process he/she may set up an appointment. The appointments are spaced according to the needs of the author [Does he/she have pictures for the next chapter? Is their editing ready? 
8. Schedule the Sessions to get to the marketing goals.
