As a 1st time author I was very pleased to have all my questions answered. The team was patient and answered all questions professionally and guided me with any uncertainties. They were knowledge and always polite. No question was a dumb question. Kept informed on status either by email or a phone call. Would likely recommend and would use again.Xulon Press Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience publishing with Xulon Press. We recognize that once a published book is in hand, the author is off and running with speaking engagements, marketing, and the business side of the publishing industry. So it means a lot for you to stop and post a review. Your final sentence speaks volumes: The book is beautiful, and they accomplished it efficiently.We would be honored to work with you on your next project! ~ Your Salem Author Services TeamReview from Sara T

I have been a writer my entire life, made my living as a writer and continue to write now that I'm retired. I have published countless articles and essays but would have never attempted to publish a book unless most of the process, beyond writing the book itself, was not handled for me by somebody else. Most of the steps, while new to me, were certainly understandable. I was as content as my personality would allow me as I encountered each successive part of the process. I am completely satisfied and will publish two more books with Xulon.Xulon Press Response

As a first-time author, I have enjoyed and appreciated the overall professional support from all the Xulon Press team who helped put my book together, Son of the Heartland, On the Way to the Promised Land. These men and women have been unfailingly helpful in their specific disciplines, from account management and accounting to continuous editing oversight, photo editing, cover design and other image work, and marketing and quality control. My concerns over alleged missteps by Xulon in prior authors' experiences disappeared quickly after working with several Xulon teammates, especially the editing team and the account manager. I look forward to asking Xulon to handle the publishing of my next book.Xulon Press Response

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us and with other potential authors who are looking for honest feedback. While it is important to heed the warnings of those who have gone before us, it is equally important to consider your own unique circumstances. Please know that we will always take responsibility for a mistake we may make, yet our goal remains the same: Building great books while providing a great experience for the author. I am so pleased to hear that was your experience. Feel free to share your thoughts with us on how we can continue to produce those results. We look forward to your next writing project!

A friend of mine had her book published by them. I was astonished at the poor editing. I found numerous inconsistencies and blatant errors. Scripture references were always abbreviated, but sometimes they had a period, sometimes not. Scripture quotations were not consistent. Dashes varied (em dash, single dash, double dash). The lyrics to a song were quoted without permission. This only scratches the surface.Xulon Press Response

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the editorial services on your friend's book. It is highly unusual for our professional editors to leave the issues you stated in one of our author's manuscripts. Depending on what editorial service is chosen by our author, it is the editor's job to read, review, correct, polish, recommend improvements, and in some cases, make the improvements for the author. It would not be prudent, from a business sense, to knowingly allow a manuscript to be published as you have described.However, there are times when an author is unable or unwilling to pay for the service that meets their manuscript's need. We will not push someone to purchase services - we simply offer them. In addition, there are some instances where the issue is a difference of opinion or creative expression rather than a departure from the style guide. When this happens, we open a discuss and, ultimately, honor the wishes of our author.Not having the specific details of your friend's account, I cannot speak on this case, but I do welcome a call from your friend/our author to ensure they were ultimately taken care of. Please direct them to call their account representative or ask for the customer service manager. Thank you for bringing this situation to our attention.
