            Don't ask me how (a bit of magic?) but BookLocker turned the scary prospect of self-publishing into a smooth and manageable process, from step 1, submitting the manuscript, to the beautiful print book I now hold in my hands. I wouldn't change a thing! Todd, the graphic designer, incorporated my own ideas for the book cover but made them better. The clarity of the many images is excellent, and the paper, print quality, and binding are just what I wanted. The staff answered every question promptly and transformed my dread about publishing my first book into delight. The publishing packages represent the best value out there for aspiring authors and everything promised was delivered efficiently. I will continue to recommend BookLocker to aspiring writers.

            I was a little apprehensive about entrusting my autobiography to the BookLocker team. As a naturally "hands-on" person, my mindset has always been: "If you want something done right, do it yourself." This philosophy led me to self-publish fifteen of my books. But this one was different. It was deeply personal, and I wanted it done right. Relinquishing control was a big step for me. From the very beginning, Ali put me at ease, and any lingering doubts I had quickly melted away. However, it still wasn't easy to let go and trust someone else with the publishing process. Thankfully, Ali’s professionalism made all the difference. Working with Justin was a pleasure. His "can-do" attitude and expert advice on formatting were invaluable. He handled everything so seamlessly that I felt my "baby" was in very capable hands. And then there’s Todd—what a genius! Although I had sent him a cover design I was happy with, he made one small tweak that transformed it into something truly remarkable. His expertise really elevated the final product. Finally, the proof paperback I received from the printer was simply beautiful. The attention to detail and quality exceeded my expectations.

            This is my first experience with BookLocker, although I am an author with seven books previously published by *************** ***** ***** *** **** ****. I was wary of self-publishing, but soon discovered that Angela and her team delivered everything they promised and more. To begin, I want to commend the entire crew for maintaining excellent communication as the process unfolded. I also couldn't be more pleased with my book cover. My experience when dealing with traditional publishers was that I had little or no input as to the imagery and design. This was a very different experience. Working with Todd E****, the BookLocker graphic artist, we came up with an eye-grabbing cover, which I'm hopeful will sell books. As I mentioned in the beginning, I was an author with a literary agent and formerly looked down my nose at self-published books. But times and the market have changed in a huge way. I'm proud of my self-published book and I have an audience waiting to read it. I'm looking forward to pursuing further projects with BookLocker and thank them for their professionalism and congeniality.

            Angela and the entire Booklocker team have once again outdid themselves! I just finished publishing my 7th historical fiction novel with Booklocker and would highly recommend them to anyone considering getting their book on the market. They offer the highest author royalties for the lowest production costs and their highly skilled team gets it done with minimal fuss. I am always amazed at what their cover graphic artist comes up with! Todd always goes above and beyond. This time he incorporated a personal design of mine on the cover and his attention to detail was outstanding. I will use Booklocker again and I recommend them highly.

            I have just finished publishing my fourth book with BookLocker and have published three books with a traditional publisher. I much prefer working with BookLocker. I am very pleased with the services they provide. I know exactly what I'm getting when working with BookLocker. No surprises. i can concentrate on writing and let them take care of things such as formatting, cover design, converting my book to an ebook, creating a trailer, etc. It was my dream for many years to write and publish books, but it was very frustrating until I found BookLocker. I recommend BookLocker to any writer who wants to see her/his book in print. Giving them a 5-star review was a no-brainer. Randy

            BookLocker is fabulous! As newbies, especially technically, the gracious, rapid, and professional help made the publishing experience enjoyable (and possible). We are thrilled with the final result. Every member of Angela and her team deserves credit. Ali and Justin got us out of a formatting hole that we could not manage. Brian developed a wonderful book trailer. Todd was delightful personally and created a wonderful cover. I give them more than 5 stars. Kristin

            Angela and her team, Ali, Brian, Justin and Todd at Booklocker deserve a note of thanks. I spent years completing this autobiographical non-fiction book and knew what I wanted. Finding the right publisher took up a significant amount of my time. I kept seeing reviews and going back to Booklocker. After compiling my book, I pulled the trigger and contacted Angela to begin. Angela and her team welcomed me and guided me through the process right from the start. Todd took my photo and created a cover based upon a mock-up idea I had. The redesign, color corrections and layout were perfect! I even slowed the process down when I wanted to change some things after the first galley print. Booklocker has impressed me with their quality and professionalism, and the final product is outstanding. I knew early on I had selected the right publisher! Thanks for the excellent work!

            I have published five books, one with a traditional publisher and the other four with a self-publishing company. When my original self-publisher went out of business several years ago, I diligently scanned the landscape hoping to find a suitable company to republish my still-in-demand flagship work. I was fortunate enough to discover Booklocker, and can now say without hesitation that my publishing experience there was as good as it gets. The Booklocker team has perfected the “start-to-finish, step-by-step” process so that both experienced authors and publishing neophytes simply cannot go astray. My reprise edition of ******* ***** ** ******* *** ****** *** ***** is significantly better than the original, thanks to the considerable professional expertise, timely interaction and unwavering dedication of Angela H** and her caring team.
