Outskirts Press Introduces Professional Ghostwriting Services to its Growing List of a la carte Solutions for Self Publishing Writers

For writers, speakers, entrepreneurs and other busy professionals, Outskirts Press is now the one-stop-shop for publishing the book of your dreams, even if you don’t have time to write it!  Joining the comprehensive selection of a la carte writing, publishing, and marketing services already available comes the new, convenient, affordable Ghostwriting service for authors.

September 21, 2010 – Denver, CO – Outskirts Press, the fastest growing self-publishing and book marketing company, announced an exciting new option for authors that will further expand the company’s reach and reputation as the single, true full-service support firm for writers, artists, speakers, entrepreneurs and other discriminating professionals. 

Outskirts Press now offers professional ghostwriting services for aspiring authors of all walks of life, regardless of whether they are novices or hardened professionals. For anyone who is simply too busy or has been told, “You ought to write a book about that,” the new Ghostwriting Service is the perfect solution to help them reach the monumental goal of publication. 

Part coach, part consultant, part writer and editor, a professional ghostwriter from Outskirts Press can help writers or other busy professionals refine their works as well as anonymously compose the entire manuscript if necessary.   The book is then published, either at Outskirts Press or elsewhere, under the author’s name, with or without credit to the ghostwriter– it’s up to the author.  Most “celebrity autobiographies” involve the services of a ghostwriter and now all writers can partake in this convenient and affordable solution.

Ghostwriting is just one of many new writing services available at the new Outskirts Press Version 4.0 website at http://outskirtspress.com.  Also extremely popular are copyediting services, full-color illustration packages, and the recently announced Private Label ISBN option.   Outskirts Press recently reached a special agreement with R.R. Bowker, the exclusive ISBN Agency for the United States, to be their official designated agent so that Outskirts Press can request single ISBNs on behalf of and in the name of self-published authors for twenty percent less than those authors would pay R.R. Bowker directly.

“Thanks to our partnership with Bowker and our Private Label ISBN option, Outskirts Press clients who wish to publish their works under their own ISBN can now be assured that they, themselves, will be listed as the publisher of record and no longer need to worry about unauthorized third party ISBN vendors,” said Outskirts Press Director of Author Support, Kelly Schuknecht.

Self Publishing a Children’s Book Just Got Easier, with 24 Illustration Packages Available from Outskirts Press

August 10, 2010, Denver, CO –Outskirts Press, Inc. (www.outskirtspress.com), the fastest-growing self-publishing and book marketing company, today announced the addition of three brand new full-color illustration packages for self-publishing children’s book authors seeking affordable, award-winning illustration services. This brings the total available styles to 24.

 “Even with advances in POD publishing, self-publishing an illustrated children’s book has been challenging for authors because of the artwork,” Outskirts Press CEO Brent Sampson states.  “Finding the right artistic style, negotiating rights with the artist, absorbing the expense, praying the artist delivers the artwork in a reasonable time  – these were among the most daunting facets of children’s publishing. No longer!  Outskirts Press now offers an amazingly simple solution for all children’s book writers, regardless of where they plan to publish — 24 custom illustration packages.”

One of the major obstacles to children’s publishing is now gone. Divided between two different pricing tiers for both the budget-conscious and the value-focused, Outskirts Press removes all the guesswork and frustration from self-publishing an illustrated children’s story.   Perhaps most newsworthy, authors do not have to split their royalty earnings with the artist, which they would usually have to do with other publishers and independent children’s illustrators.

“Finally, it is economically feasible to publish a full-color children’s book with award-winning artwork,” Sampson continues. “The prices are affordable, the artwork is extraordinary, and the value is out of this world. And you don’t even have to publish with Outskirts Press to order these illustration packages, although we’ll give you a 15% discount on your illustrations if you do.”

Once the illustrations are complete, authors choosing to publish with Outskirts Pres can take advantage of the full-color Pearl book publishing package at Outskirts Press, which pays 100% royalties while offering high-quality color publishing in both paperback and hardback formats.

In addition to the full-color book publishing package and 24 illustration packages, Outskirts Press offers a wide variety of writing, black-and-white publishing, and marketing services for any writer’s needs. Visit the all-new Outskirts Press at http://outskirtspress.com to learn more.
