Your story deserves a real publisher.

You do — completely. 8Ways never takes ownership of your manuscript, your cover, or your royalties. You sign a service agreement, not a rights agreement, and you can walk away with your production files at any point.

100% of the royalty the retailer pays. Your sales accounts are set up in your name, so Amazon, Ingram and Apple pay you directly — we never sit between you and your money.

A typical full-service project runs 4–7 months: 6–10 weeks editing, 3–4 weeks design and typesetting, 2 weeks distribution setup, then a 30–60 day marketing runway before launch. Design-only projects ship in about 10 business days.

Yes. Many of our authors arrive with an outline, a stack of notes or a recorded interview series. Our ghostwriters and developmental editors work with you to build the manuscript first — in your voice, published under your name only.

No honest publisher can. What we guarantee is the work: professional editing, a competitive cover, correct metadata, wide distribution and a real launch campaign. Many of our titles have hit Amazon category bestseller lists — but we'll never sell you a promise we can't control.

Yes — every package can be split into 2–4 interest-free milestone payments tied to project stages (kickoff, editing complete, design approved, launch). No credit check, no financing partner.

Your title becomes orderable by every bookstore and library through Ingram's catalogue, and our Signature package includes direct outreach for shelf placement. Guaranteed shelf space is something no publisher — including the Big Five — can promise for a debut.

You keep full control of the listing, and we stay available for reprints, new editions, translations, audiobook add-ons and ongoing marketing sprints. Roughly 40% of our authors come back for book two.
