“This was my first experience ever with a publishing company, and American Book hasn't been anything but wonderful. They have walked me through all the phases of publishing with what seemed like painless measures. However, I know a great deal of work was put into my book by my extraordinary editor Kristin. Also the design team designed my cover from an original painting specifically created just for my books cover. What more could a girl ask for?
I look forward to working with the promotion and marketing team, and feel sure that my experience will replicate what I have already acclaimed as marvelous. Thanks to Nathan for being there for me through it all with any answer to any questions I may have. You guys at American Book Publishing are great!” -Julie Bogue, Author of There Are No Goodbyes |

“My compliments to American Book Publishing for producing a top quality cover for my fictional book "The Past And Future King." The illustration process was completed relatively quickly and I am very impressed with the final result. I also am very pleased with my editor, Oakley. Oakley offered wise advice related to improving the descriptions and character development. His comments were always inciteful which helped me make many significant improvements. He was a great mentor while respecting my views related to the content of the book and story. The staff at American Book Publishing is very professional and helpful.” -Warren M. Mueller, Author of Truth Seeker: Straight Talk from the Bible |

“This, my first book as been an exciting and tedious project all at once. American Book publishing has helped me though each step. As I timidly took each new step they helped me to make that step firm. As I made it from one step to another, they helped it look clear and let me see where I am headed. My book is becoming more and more a reality with each step.
I feel I have a whole team behind me who have my back at all times. I was so amazed when I saw my vision of what my book cover would be, come to life even better than I imagined. Editing made my words come to life as well with times spent on each detail until it was perfect. I can now see my very own hard work on the web site and on line for all to see. This is all real to me now and with American Book publishing my dreams are now becoming reality.” -Ren'ee Bonds, Author Of Not All Prisons Have Bars |

“Therese was not only the editor of my book; she was an outstanding mentor. The honesty and direct approach we both communicated helped the completion of the editing and rewriting process. To a new author, like myself, she presented patience in the face of my many questions I sent to her. She was truly a professional in every line I wrote to finish JESUS KILLER; I could not have done it without her. Thank you for having her on your American Book Publishing staff at this time.
Stella was prompt and very informative as Director of Editing for American Book Publishing. The tedious task of her skills is a team effort. Her work, suggestions and knowledge proved to be most helpful to me as a 1st time author. Through her, my editor and myself, we were able to edit my book, "JESUS KILLER", and have the finished product successfully sent to the next publishing phase. Thank you for your time spent on my book.
As an American Book Publishing artist and designer, Jana showed me her talent and God-given gift. She was able to understand what I wanted for my book cover. After I sent her a single picture and description of what I visualized as my cover, her team immediately came up with exactly what I wanted. I am very pleased with the result. Several questions were answered promptly and the cover was approved in very few e-mails. Her team at American Book Publishing was simply wonderful. Her work will differently make a difference in the success of the marketing of my book, JESUS KILLER. Thank you, Jana, for the work you do.
The Director of Book Production, Jennifer, was an inspiration in her professionalism for the completion of the PFD for my book. The final step before printing, is surely most important to the selling success of any novel. Jennifer was quick to reply answers to the questions I had about the PFD. Being reminded of the importance of correcting unseen errors is a critical part of any well written manuscript. For Jennifer's hard work; I say "Thank you."
Jeff has managed to give to me immeasurable information on the marketing of my first novel. Jeff's sincerity and dedication, to the difficult task of marketing, is shown to be very professional. His skills and techniques of marketing will help both American Book Publishing and me to sell JESUS KILLER to the public who are hungry for a well written text. I look foreword to a long relationship as we work together in marketing my book. Thank you for all of your work on this project.” -John Edwards, Author of Jesus Killer

“Whoever has said that getting Traditionally Published as a new author is nearly impossible has not had the fortune of finding American Book Publishing. While many large publishing houses have forsaken the art of providing the quality literature that is being written by unknowns, the folks at American Book Publishing have stayed true to their purpose. With real professionalism, they find, hone, and publish the work of authors who really have something valuable to say.
Never having written, nor having any experience in the publishing field, I was less than a novice. However, with the tremendous and patient tutelage of my editor, Marleena, I found a greater depth and precision to my voice as an author. Rather than suffering through a painstaking editorial process, I discovered a supreme joy in honing my craft and have been motivated to continue writing. Cover specialist, Jana, took a concept and literally made it jump off the cover of the book with intensity and drawing power. Jeffrey in the promotions department has been a godsend. All-in-all, I have been thoroughly impressed and completely blessed in my partnership with American Book Publishers.” -Jimmy Root, Jr, Author of Distant Thunder |

“My current editor Amanda was very easy to work with. She was thorough and very insightful and helped me immensely with necessary changes to the manuscript. The design team offered me fabulous covers to choose from but the one I chose really "spoke" to me. The production folks were incredibly patient with my editing requests. I have just started my relationship with marketing but so far Jeff has been helpful and kept me apprised of what I need to do to truly "sell" my book.
Overall, my experience with ABP has been professional, educational and a lot of fun. I look forward to working with American Book Publishing on my second book which is nearing completion. Thank you! -Nancy Hewitt, Author Of In Search of My Angel |

“The editing provided by American Book Publishing was intelligent and helpful, and the editing process productive. The book-cover graphics are eye catching. For color scheme the graphics department followed suggestions solicited from the author. Contacts with a copy editor and the production process generally have presented no problems. I cannot speak to the marketing approach as yet. It appears to be well thought out.” -Deckle McLean, Author of Roberto Tens Last Job |

“I'm impressed with how much American Book Publishing encourages their authors to work hard to get their name recognized. They send their authors an Author's Guide that explains all the duties of an author. Then they encourage us to put an attractive website together so we can be success, giving us pointers. They encourage us to get interviews from newspapers and radio stations so the public will know who we are. They encourage us to give presentations, lectures, and workshops so we can help the communities. Because they care, they remind us often of our duties and let us know that they want us to be successful. It feels good to know that they care about their authors and that we're not just a number. -Linda Weaver Clarke, Author Of Edith and the Mysterious Stranger |

“The service I have received from your publishing firm has been a very interesting as well as enjoyable learning experience. The editors have been very helpful and courteous, and, again quite a learning experience. I was quite surprised and pleased at the design peoples work and thought they did an admirable job of the cover—as to the other two departments I have not yet experienced their services, but look forward to doing so. -Barry Cornett, Author of Anomalies of Time |

“While cooperating with American Book Publishing we didn't experience any inconveniences! Everything was always running very smooth. Editing, marketing, design works, everything they would do, was excellent. Professional editors were always very patient and most important - they were always keen on finding the best solution for us. We very much value their hard work. The designer who created the cover for the novel The Grave of Nostradamus has fulfilled all our expectations, even more than that! The same could be said about the people working in the marketing area. Thank you, everybody! “-William Norman and Raymond J. Nabus, Authors of The Grave of Nostradamus |

“I was very excited and nervous entering the editing phase of book production. However American Book Publishing provided me with a very talented editor who guided and encouraged me through the revision process. As a first time author, I was unsure of what to expect. I had visions of my precious manuscript being torn apart, instead I found a positive mentor who fixed all my grammer and spelling mistakes as he very tactifully pointed out weaknesses in my story or gave me honest praise where I had done a great job. I could not have had a better editing experience, one in which I learned to be a better writer and thinker.” -Jenny Potter, Author of Double Rescue |

“Jason, my editor could not have been more outstanding. His line item edits were so rich with detailed flow suggestions, that I can not imagine this book without his tremendous input. His grasp of grammar and style was amazing but he also has a tremendous grasp of the history and subject matter of my book. If you auditioned a thousand editors for this project a better match could not have been made. The American Book Publishing editing process not only made the book ten times better from the vantage point of the reader, but greatly improved me as a writer. What an experience, the American Book Publishing editorial process is really above all praise. We were given some real input with respect to the cover. I work in the newspaper world and know how tough it is matching nothing but a concept with a compelling design. There were a spectrum of ideas and some we thought were awesome and some we could not make the connection. As they explained what they were envisioning and we were sharing ideas as well after a few attempts they really hit the ball out of the park. The concept of this book is a particular challenge. The design team did a fantastic job. The 5th and 6th choice would have been more than we could have imagined, but the toughest part in the end was deciding together which one was the best. They were just great.” -Gerald Tracy, Author of Making News: Jesus of Nazareth |

“I found your services during the production of my book "A Counselor Looks at the Big Book" to be both very thorough and extremely professional. I enjoyed working with my editor, Sarah. She was very patient and helped a novice author at each step. Her sugestions helped turn a rough work into what I think is a professional work. I will be eternally in her debt.
Your design department came up with a cover that I believe is eye-catching and will attract potential readers to investigate the contents of the book. At each step of the production process I have enjoyed working with the staff of American Book Publishing. As the book nears its debut, I look forward to a continuing relationship that will be mutually rewarding.” -Richard C.

“I was very excited to be involved with American Book Publishing after they accepted my manuscript, Seminole Landing. Nathan was very kind and encouraging about the novel. Angela was assigned as my editor and she was very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the editing process. She always answered my questions and corrections were made on a very timely basis. I enjoyed working with Angela very much. Jana and the design department did a wonderful job on the cover. It is an eye-catching design that goes well with the books suspense theme. I have just begun to work with Jeffrey in the PR department and hope this experience goes as well as with all the others I have had the pleasure of dealing with from American Book Publishing.” -Colleen Affeld, Author of Seminole Landing |

“My favorite part of the entire publishing process has been my interactions with my editor. Jenny has always been honest, encouraging, and helpful. I always felt like she was there representing me and my odd questions with American Book Publishing on top of helping me hone my book into a far better product than it would have been without her. I also really enjoyed working with the designer on my cover. I think I may have been a bit frustrating to work with as I completely changed my cover design ideas mid-way through, but never once were they anything but helpful as we worked to produce a wonderful cover.
So far, the other services have been nothing but professional. I hope, as we work together to market and sell my book, I'll find the people I work with in marketing and production to be as competent and helpful as my editor and designer have already been.” –Rob Seger, Author of The Father of All Lies |

“As a first-time author, I didn't know what to expect from the publishing process. I was pleasantly surprised at how much latitude I was given with the content and size of the book and the styling of the cover page. All of my suggestions were considered and most of them were adopted. I'm particularly grateful to my editor for helping me turn the collection of ideas on how to improve society into a genuine work of fiction. I'm impressed with the work of the design team in producing a faithful cover page for what must have been a challenging novel to represent. I'm thankful to all the people who have contributed to making this the first-grade book that I've always hoped it would be." - Hrvoje Butkovic, Author of A Glimpse of Another World |

“As an author, my experience with American Book Publishing has been awesome. My editor, Lauren, was so helpful and patient. When I was hesitant about how to proceed with things like the bibliography, she was quick to give suggestions. She went the second mile and gave my manuscript her full attention, even carried it around with her to work on outside of regular work time. She held my hand through the entire editing process. She was a great motivator.
I was very happy with the design team. Jana always ended her letters with a "Thank you" and an exclamation mark. Just seeing that exclamation mark gave my day a boost. It was like saying, "Aren't we having fun?!!" or "Im so happy to be talking with you today!"
Lilian did a great job with the book cover. She asked for my suggestions and the cover turned out just as I envisioned it.
Thank you, American Book Publishing!!” -Dora Lee Thompson, Author of Pocket of Guilt. |

"I could NOT have had a better, more professional experience publishing my book than I had with American Book Publishing. My editor Pam was as good as it gets, she had a passion for what I had written, professional and prompt and very encouraging. Just terrific.
Book design went over the top and captured the heart and soul of my book on the cover, Jana and her team just could not have done better, and Jennifer in production just keep things moving and on track, just made me feel important, which for a new author, is just what you need. Editing, suggestions, professional, helpful, thoughtful, engaged. I cannot thank the team at American Book Publishing enough." —Paul Price Author of Childhood Dying

“American Book Publishing has a great staff. They have been a pleasure to work with. My book cover is terrific. I almost fell out of my chair when I opened my e-mail and saw it for the first time. It certainly catches the eye. Jana and Jennifer were most helpful and efficient as we worked on my final approval and jacket.
I especially enjoyed working with my assigned editor, Jessie Elliott. He helped me turn my good novel into a great novel. He was always prompt to answer my many questions and his suggestions were always welcome. He was truly in-tune with me during this process. Many times I felt that he was reading my mind as I was writing my tale. His constant praise and encouragement gave me confidence to perfect every aspect of my story. Thank you, Jessie.” -Dawn

"As an author who has written a book published by American Book Publishing, I was highly impressed with my finished product. I would like to say that I did all the work, but the truth is that they helped me tremendously with the entire process. I love my finished product and the response to it has been great.
The editor that was assigned to me, did an exceptional job in aiding me. I was asked for input on the cover, but I did not feel as though I was alone in figuring it out. It took a little more time than I thought the whole process would take, but you know what they say, "good things come to those who wait", and my book is truly a good thing. I would recommend American Book Publishing to anyone who has a work of art they would like to publish —Amanda Konery Author of Classic Driven Panic |
