AuthorHouse Reviews 

You contacted me often when you wanted money. Then you seemed to lose interest. I had to harass you to get you to just send me the free books you promised Tony was especially rude. It would help if you'd keep me apprised of how the book is doing.

I had a few lovey conversations with my sales rep before buying my publishing contract. I was sent "content guidelines" along with other information for my memoir But when I submitted my memoir it was rejected due to content, even though I followed their initial guidelines. I then was give a new list of content guidelines to follow. I would have had to make my story fictional to meet the new requirements. If you're publishing a memoir don't use them, it will only result in frustration and heartache.

I have been self-published through author house for 6 years now. The only calls I ever get is through the marketing department and I have never received the royalty payment even though I'm owed royalties. Every time I call to receive payment, there's always another excuse as to why it didn't go through. This company is a scam I highly highly advise against this company and PLEASE do your research!!!!!! Look at all the honest one-star reviews.

I had a great experience with AuthorHouse. Thank you!

The package I purchased included publication only. No editing or marketing was included and I was left to my own devices. I was surprised at this given the package was quite expensive. Now, as my book is in publication, I am nervous I will never receive payment for my work as other authors have reported that they have not received payment royalties for books sold. These reports have not increased my confidence with Authorhouse and the whole process feels like a scam. I am sad to say this has been my experience.

Efficient set up of book exactly as I submitted it with the exception I was promised font of my choice and it was substituted without my notification or permission. Unfortunately I did not notice it when proofreading.

Great to work with from beginning to end. Definitely would recommend.

The staff are very professional and want to work with the author on every step of the process.

The staff was very helpful. But most of all, it was my satisfaction with the final product.

Everyone knew what they were talking about and we very patient and professional taking me through the process.

Author House personnel was patient in receiving the final version of the manuscript and figures for the book after the packet was purchased. Once the manuscript was submitted, production of the book was accomplished in good time.

Authorhouse do a good job of actually publishing a book for a very expensive price. That is where the good work ends. They misled me regarding marketing and sales. I was informed my package included marketing but I have been continually bombarded with phone calls from people wanting to sell me marketing services as Authorhouse do not provide this. I did pay extra for book fayres. They do nothing to help with reducing high book prices set by them on Amazon. Pricing which is totally unrealistic. They just continually try to get money out of authors. Chose a UK Publishing Company to get better value for money

Authorhouse needs to be much more up front about the editing process. Total miscommunication on what was being done for which portion of my 2 volume project, with editing cost again added in, after supposedly being settled in the beginning.

My experience with Authorhouse was great they kept in communication with me about the process of my book from cover to editing. Everyone has been great to work with. My only thing I could say negative is I wish they told you all the publishing fee and publicity fees all up front. Not contact you in a week about other options. That was the only frustrating thing for me. I did buy a few packages from them. Only one mishap with the back cover, it was resolved and they handled it very well.

I was impressed with the professional manner throughout the publishing process!

good communication, excellent help , meticulous about customer needs and concerns.

The representatives are professional, knowledgeable, helpful, friendly, patient, and return calls promptly.
This was the first book that I ever had published and AuthorHouse made the whole process easy and smooth.
I would in good conscience recommend AuthorHouse to new and seasoned authors.

The process is pretty much money upfront, sign papers, get upsold, then constantly having to follow up with them, while minimal effort to reach back out is given. Emails go unanswered. The "book cover" they create is from free stock images they can find online,I hired out on fiverr for my book cover design since they couldn't do it because "theres no free images like it". Its been a process. So far this is my experience hopefully once my book is out there itll get better, since im waiting in a queue....
