Nice and fulfilling experience
The whole journey was beautiful and well worth it. I took my time whenever it appeared I didn’t understand anything in the process. The company was helpful. showed understanding and very supportive all the way. Publishing was a great journey I never believed I could embark upon.
Great multiservice small company
Having worked with AuthorHelp for the formatting of my latest book (see previous review) I turned to them again to see if they could help with my website, begun in 2015 but currently undergoing problems. Once more the service was excellent. Robin sorted out important security issues and updated the home page, explaining each step in language comprehensible to a non-techie like myself. This was a huge weight off my mind, allowing me to proceed to the next phase, the creation of a Photo Gallery on the site. Needless to say, I shall be turning to the Red Cape team at AuthorHelp to get this up and running once the photo selection is completed. The advantage of working with a small family company which is multi-service, covering different needs of authors while providing a reassuring personal touch, cannot be overestimated. Thank you!
An impressive service
Authorhelp are professional and helpful. It’s a rare combination and I was impressed with the patience and flexibility they showed during a process that was less than straightforward. I would highly recommend them.
Thanks to Author Help
Robin and Henry were professional, responsive and detail oriented as they quickly got my book published. Robin offered helpful editorial suggestions that improved January 6: A Novel, and the cover Henry designed has been enthusiastically received. Author Help's systems worked. Overall, value easily outweighed cost. Bravo!

I totally recommend Author Help’s service. I worked with them for my first book. They are very responsive and they provide perfect service. I definetly will work with Author Help for my future book
I would use them again.
I could have done with more information about dealing with the technology of the first stages, but, once I found I could keep asking questions and have Zoom meetings, it all went fine and I felt really supported through this brand new experience.
I'm glad I chose Author Help, and would recommend them.
Great Experience!
Working with Authorhelp has been a fantastic experience! Everything was seamless and I couldn’t be happier!!

I was given wonderful service and attention as if I were writing the next Number 1 novel. Author Help and especially Robin gave such great advice and walked me through every step, making my experience completely enjoyable! I can't recommend them enough!
Jeff Figoni; author of DECEIT
A friendly, professional team providing an equally friendly professional service to people that have little, or in my case, no knowledge of what is involved in getting a book published. Robin and his team of proof-readers, copywriters, and graphic designers are vastly experienced, knowledgeable, and instinctively know what works and what doesn’t. They bring so much to the table. All this, together with a large plate of patience, helped me through the process to the final product. I would therefore not hesitate to recommend them to anyone who is thinking of travelling the self-publishing road. They are ready to help all along the way. A big thank you to all in the team at Author Help who helped me achieve my goal. The next book is nearing completion so I will be back.

Robin has been fantastic to work with over the last few months. Robin made everything clear from the start and as the project progressed, and he was extremely patient me as I made my amendments and never rushed the process. It was a pleasure working with you and your team Robin! Thank you for bringing my book to life!
Outstanding.
I received sustained
I received sustained, focused, and detailed advice from Author Help. And there was no waiting around. From Day 1 right through to publication they were available. Like most budding authors, I was flabbergasted by the complexities of getting a book out to readers both on and offline. So a big thank you goes to Robin and Jen. I could never have done this without you!
As a new author
As a new author, I didn't realise the complex business that needs to be done to get a book on the market. And as a 68-year-old retired man, I would never have understood the technology needed to do this without AuthorHelp!

Seven Reasons to Hire Author Help to Guide You to a Successful Publishing Experience
My self-publishing experience with Author Help was excellent in all ways.
1. Communication was excellent. Robin Phillips provided all necessary information and step-by-step guidelines on the process and responded quickly and clearly to my questions.
2. He was flexible in making changes to the formatting to tighten the layout and switching the trim size in order to shorten the page count.
3. He carried out the proofreading corrections I made quickly and accurately.
4. The cover artist took my design suggestions and created three attractive cover options from which to choose.
5. Robin was helpful and pragmatic in recommending pricing options.
6. The entire process from submitting the Word documents to the appearance of the print books and e-books on Amazon took only about six weeks -just in time to give them as Christmas gifts.
7. The cost of the whole process was very reasonable in comparison with other companies I consulted. Payment was made in three installments as different parts of the process were completed.
I couldn't have been happier with both the self-publishing process and the final product. I have already recommended Author Help to a couple of other aspiring authors.
