Less than I had hoped for.
When I chose Outskirts Press to publish my third book, I had high expectations. The website gave me many reasons to trust the company to do the best possible job. As I began, I hit setback after setback. I had difficulty understanding and following directions, perhaps due to my lack of technical expertise, and I had to submit my questions by email, and then wait for an answer that I needed at the moment. I would have preferred to talk with my coach by phone, but that was discouraged. As I proceeded through the publishing process, I was left in the dark regarding the specific details of my book such as layout, color of my cover, size of print - I would have liked to see a sample of what the finished product would look like. I felt left out of decision making, uninformed regarding the final product, and uncertain what was being done. The final book was satisfactory except for the cover. It was lack-luster and disappointing. I was not given the chance to view and critique it and to suggest changes. It appears to me that once I paid the fee to this company, they lost interest in me unless I bought additional services.
