Illinois Authors — Publishing a Book from Chicago and Beyond

I work with authors from Illinois pretty regularly. Chicago writers, mostly. Some from Naperville, Springfield, Rockford. The pattern is always the same — they have a manuscript, they do not know what to do next, and they are afraid of getting burned by a publishing company.

I get it. There are a lot of bad actors out there. Here is what we do and how much it actually costs.
