"Larry's Talks"

Actually, a very good experience. There were some bumps in the road, but overall it was a good experience. There was a persistence in delays that hampered my production. At times it seemed an interminable time was used to get from A to B. Generably speaking, all units showed good professionally.

"First time client"

This is my first book with this company. So far the process to publication has been smooth. I had wonderful consultants 3 or 4 of them.
There is always room for improvement. I will consider them for my next project.

"Take a step and let them help you..."

I was a little unsure when I started working with iUniverse.
I have been excited since we published on 36 thousand locations for people to have access.
They give results every quarter, I'm waiting to see the results in the next four weeks!
Take a step, watch your steps, and move forward in a healthy way!

"I will continue to rate low until my…"

I will continue to rate low until my inquiry has been addressed rather than passed on to someone who has been unresponsive. Voicemail says on vacation, but then are there no contingenecies. Error occurred that was not ours and we halted distribution of the book bt now it has been two weeks and we are making no revenue nor enjoying the fruits of our rewards (not being able to share with family and friends even). Let's hears from you iuniverse!

"Excellent"

iUniverse gave me a very smooth publishing experience. The team that I worked with knew all the answers to my questions, and were very accommodating. I've now published with them twice!

"Missteps and Lack of Attention to Details"

My first book( children’s Picture book) published with IUniverse and a tremendous amount of work on my part, with designing and redesigning cover, back cover, and interior design, numerous times.

After 4 phases of corrections, the finished book was printed with the proof phase watermark still on 12 of the pages.

Would not release my own book to me so I could get it out for a timely review and after a lot of angst, did provide a version that I could get reviewed.

Continually trying to sell me more services along the way with foreign speaking employees that are pushy, not informed,and call at all hours, as late as 9:30 at night.

My book is now at an offset print stage and waiting 10-13 weeks for that process.

Every step in the publishing process there have been numerous missteps.

A lot of micromanaging on my part as the author and little attention to the details—- first run of my book, after over 300 corrections for a 44 page book, every other page was blank— is 1 example.

"Satisfaction with all the help I…"

Satisfaction with all the help I received to help me meet my goals. The marketing or sales department is a bit pushy!

Thank you!

"Spiritual Drafting"

Honestly it was little intimidating to get started. And I wasn’t sure if I should trust the recommendations that iUniverse was suggesting. My thought was they just wanted more money. But that wasn’t true. Their editors helped enhanced the story. I would use them again.
