    ***** K When I started my journey to get my book published, I had no clue what I was getting into. The staff at Dorrance was helpful, and working with them was a pleasure.

    Dorrance Publishing provided exceptional service throughout the entire process of publishing ****** by ****** Heanton. Their team was knowledgeable, professional, and always available to answer my questions. The editing, design, and production were handled with great care, resulting in a high-quality final product. I appreciate their transparency, clear communication, and dedication to helping authors achieve their goals. I highly recommend Dorrance Publishing to anyone seeking a trustworthy and reliable publishing company.

    Dorrance Publishing puts a novice author at ease. Many people write books, but they never hold a printed copy because of the complex process of a book creating. The professional teams at Dorrance assigned to each writing project, small or huge take the writers through this journey step by step until a far-fetched dream becomes a beautiful shiny printed book. Through well executed plans and packages for advertising, promotion and marketing an author has good chances to be successful in the real world of books. I cannot hold down my excitement to see already my little children's book being sold on *************************** and ****** websites in both of its versions, printed and e-book. There is a reason why Dorrance Publishing has been making books since 1920... this reason is their excellence. *** *** ******** ********* Author of T is for Tractor, Copyright 2024

    As a first time author, I'm delighted to have chosen Dorrance as my publisher. The process began with an insightful conversation outlining how Dorrance would shepherd my manuscript to publication. The timeline, deadlines, and finished product were all as promised. My Project Manager, ******* ********, was very helpful and considerate to a first time author while always being professional. I have no reservations in recommending Dorrance to any author, first time, or experienced.

    Deciding to publish a book was requested by a few friends of mine, so I went with Dorrance Publishing and I was truly amazed with every aspect of the processing. Dorrance personnel satisfied my every desire and made my dream as an author come true.

    I published my first non-fiction book with Dorrance and will be publishing my first historical novel with them also. Maisi was my project manager. I would have given 5 stars however, the editing process was very poor. I hope it improves when I submit my novel.

    If you are a novice author and have not selected your publisher, you might look at Dorrance. After chatting with a few publishers, I spoke with ***, at Dorrance, who guided me through why I should choose Dorrance. The fact that they have been in business for over one hundred and fifteen years will get your attention. In your chat with ***, you will discover who Dorrance is in the publishing business. Looking back on my first contact with Dorrance, beginning with ***, and throughout the process, I experienced friendly professionals who were eager to assist me, at first with my Project Manager and finally, experiencing the thrill of seeing my book in print.
