No, but we do need to review it and have a consultation with you to start. It takes 24-48 hours (in most cases) to review and contact you and give you the next steps in the process.

You order through your print on demand company account. Payment is submitted to them and usually books arrive in 3-5 business days. Rush shipping is available.

We take care of that for you! We correct spelling, grammar, content, and flow. We also have transcription available as an a la carte service for an additional fee. It allows you to record your book in your own voice, send it to us, and we convert it into book format.

Your book will immediately be in the Barnes & Noble database. Anyone can order or reques your book in store or online. However, it may not appear on shelves. Why? Keep in mind that Barnes & Noble has an inventory of billions of books by hundreds of thousands of authors (maybe more). They stock their shelves with works by well known, well sought after authors and companies. The spots on those shelves are coveted and take some steps to get there. You can (and should) approach your local Barnes & Noble store manager about getting onto their shelves. Bring them a free copy (it's an investment, so don't complain about it, write it off on your taxes as a donation), have a great intro for yourself and your book ready. Be professional and use your "best good manners". Follow up with a phone call and/or email thanking them for their time. Check back in as needed depending on the feedback you were given. Don't harass them. If you don't get good feedback, there are plenty of other locations for you to approach. If you need help coming up with what to say, contact us and we'll be happy to help you.
