YOUR PRODUCT. YOUR PROPERTY. YOUR PROFITS.

A professionally published
book that remains yours.

Serious production, whether you’re
printing one title or an entire list.

We help develop, design, and prepare your book for publication while you retain ownership of your work and control of your publishing accounts. Here is what that means in practice.

Your Product

Your book is a creative work and a valuable product. It should be developed, professionally designed, and produced to reflect the quality of the ideas inside it.

Your Property

Your manuscript, intellectual property, and publishing accounts remain yours; so you maintain creative control of your book beyond our work together.

Your Profits

With our model you retain the vast majority of your profits. Which is unlike the traditional publishing model where the bulk of your earnings go to the company publishing your work.

Author ownership is not an add-on to the Sonder Press model. It is the foundation of it.

HOW IT WORKS

A clear path from manuscript to finished book.

We walk you through practical steps so you know what happens at each stage and how it contributes to the finished product.

One book. A streamlined process.

01

Understand the Book

We begin with your manuscript, goals, timeline, and the kind of publishing experience you want to create.

02

Build the Right Plan

We identify the editorial, design, production, printing, and distribution support your book actually needs.

03

Create and Prepare

Your book moves through the selected services with coordinated guidance and professional production standards.

04

Publish with Ownership

We help execute your publishing plan with practical and clear next steps. You leave with a finished book and complete control of your publishing assets.

YOUR GOALS COME FIRST

Made for your readers.

Built for your plans.

A novel, illustrated children’s book, workbook, and keepsake each ask something different of their design and production.

We help you consider the details that matter: the reading experience, intended formats, materials, printing quantities, and how copies will reach your audience.

Those decisions shape a book and gives you a solid foundation for publishing it.

LET’S TALK BOOKS

Bring your book into the world with clarity, confidence, and control.

Tell us what you’re working on and where you could use a hand. We’ll review your project and discuss how Sonder Press may be able to help.

You bring the idea. We help bring it together.
