Make Self-Publishing the Key to Your First Book Deal
Congratulations on Your Achievement!

You have worked long and hard to complete your manuscript, and now it’s time to turn it into a published book.

Like most authors, you are now faced with one of two options to achieve your publishing dream: following the traditional or the self-publishing route. Unfortunately, the rejection rate of new manuscripts by traditional publishers is very high, due in great part to the authors' lack of sales history. This leaves most new authors with self-publishing as the only viable alternative to bring their books to market.

A Breakthrough in Self-Publishing

At Friesen Press, we can help you bridge both worlds: if you choose to self-publish, we’ll groom your manuscript into a professionally formatted book that will stand up to the quality of traditionally-published titles. Then, we’ll make your title available for ordering at over 25,000 booksellers worldwide.

If your dream is to be picked up a publisher, we offer you the unique opportunity to share the success of your self-published book with traditional publishing companies. In an industry first, we have entered into exclusive partnerships with leading publishing houses to act as their dedicated talent scout for self-published authors. That means we can dramatically increase your chances of getting noticed!

From the Oxford Dictionary to Harry Potter—you are
in good hands

We have been recognized for our dedication to excellence by the most demanding publishing clients in North America. With 25 million books printed every year in the USA and Canada, including original editions of the popular Harry Potter series and the classic Oxford Dictionary among many other publications, you will benefit from the experience of a leader in the book industry.
