Charles Landreth, author of Sword Bearer


“Overall my experience was great. This was my first book and I had a lot of questions, but didn’t feel rushed each time I talked to Outskirts. The only item that I would like to have seen that I didn’t was a general timeline of each step of the process. I asked for this a couple of times throughout the process, but got no answer. I understand that the schedule would be flexible as there are other authors with work being done, but knowing how long each step generally takes would be helpful. I’m a very organized person and knowing what to expect reduces stress for me, but I also had two instances where the Outskirts rep didn’t get system notification that I had completed a step and I feel like I lost some time due to that. But again, overall it’s been great, and I plan on publishing my next two books through Outskirts. Thank you for all your assistance, and for providing a good outlet for new authors.”
