Move the sliders to see an example of monthly royalties on Amazon, before any marketing. Because you keep 100%, every dollar the retailer pays goes to you.
Example only. eBook uses Amazon KDP's 70% option (list price $2.99–$9.99) minus a delivery fee of about $0.15 per MB for a 2 MB file. Paperback uses KDP's 60% rate minus printing ($1.00 + $0.012 per page, black and white, US). Actual results vary.
Your book deserves a global audience. Tap a point to see where readers find it once it's published.
Your consultant / Austin, TXI spent three years querying agents with no luck. Union Ridge believed in my manuscript from day one and got it published. They didn't just publish my book, they fought for it.
I had tried twice to get traditionally published and gave up. Union Ridge gave me my confidence back and put my book in front of real readers. I wish I had found them sooner.
Union Ridge made the entire process feel manageable. I went from a rough manuscript to a published book, and my consultant was available every time I had a question.
As a first-time writer, I had no idea how publishing worked. The team walked me through every step, from editing to cover design to launch. I finally have my book in readers' hands.
