Who are the squares?
Basically, we are you– just a few happy paces farther down the self-publishing path. We are a mother-daughter team of authors and self-publishers. When we started, we had no idea how to get our manuscripts into a bound format, where to find an ISBN, or how to design a cover. We even wondered if using a public printer would run the risk of plagiarism. That sounds paranoid now, but back then our books were our babies– they still are– and we worried for their safety. It was hard to share our first stories with someone else. Were they good enough? Were they ready for the world? That’s why we understand that your project is special to you and we want to see it turn out the way you want.
Between us, we have a wide range of life experiences and interests that lend to our understanding of, and interest in, your unique project. Life is multifaceted and vibrant. We take pleasure in helping you tell your story.
