As an award-winning self-published author, I wrote and published my first book and did everything myself: I wrote the book, edited it, typeset it, took the cover photograph and practically killed myself, trying to learn how to do everything. Now Mill City Press frees you to focus on what you do best: write. For one low fee, they will edit and typeset your book, design the cover, create the pdf file, provide at-cost printing, design a web site and a marketing plan. Best of all, you keep the copyright and all the profits. No other company provides an honest, reputable service like this. I stake my reputation on it.
