Author package: from 1,9 £/book

You save £1900 or more

Focus on writing - we take care of the rest

The Author Package makes it easy for you to publish your book. You get help with all aspects of publishing - from typesetting and cover design to printing, warehousing and distribution. You avoid tedious administration, expensive and time-consuming packing and picking, and mailing to customers and retailers. You'll have time to focus on your writing - we're your trusted partner to take care of the rest. At the same time, you save at least £1900 compared to procuring everything included on your own.

By using the Author Package, you get a complete package that includes all the services you need. You will be assigned a project manager who will be your personal contact throughout the book project and who will work with you.

As well as saving you a lot of money compared to buying these services separately, you also save a lot of time, as you do not have to search for designers, sign agreements with distributors , obtain print quotes, order print and take care of warehousing and dispatch. We have also quality assured our offer and external consultants - which is difficult to do on your own, especially without experience and industry knowledge. With us, you always get high quality throughout the production process.

You save at least £1900 with the Author Package

Publishing your book with our help leads to a quality-assured publication at a really great price. Below we have listed some of the elements included in the Author Package and what you would have had to pay for it if you bought these separately at market prices*:

* Prices are approximate and are not a commitment. The prices in the price comparison are based on the market prices available to us at the time of writing. The price is based on a book of standard length (approx. 200-250s, black and white cover, soft cover). All prices are exclusive of VAT unless otherwise stated.

So you'll save somewhere between £1900 and £3800 by using the Author Package, compared to buying the services on your own. And that's not even counting the printing, which is included in the Author Package! The amount you save by using us is often less than the full cost of the package, including printed books and e-books.

And in addition to the above, there are time savings for handling all the formalities yourself - e.g. ordering ISBN, signing agreements with retailers, project managing the production, receiving and handling orders, etc.

Bookea is the largest self-publisher in the Nordic region and we have used our many years of experience in the industry to create this favourable package. We've listened to our authors and worked with them to customise our offer to better suit your needs.

More benefits of the Author Package

If you want to sell your own book through your own channels in parallel with distribution in bookshops, the Author Package is perfect. You decide how many copies you want to sell through us and how many you want to take home for your own sales. 10 author copies for yourself and your closest friends or most of the edition? The choice is yours. 

How much does the Author Package cost?

Each book is individual and the price depends on a number of parameters, such as the number of pages, book format, choice of paper, print run, etc. The more books you print, the lower the unit price.

For a standard book (max 250 pages, 135x210mm format, black and white cover), the Author Package with 100 printed books costs only £990 (excluding shipping and book VAT). If you choose 300 copies instead, which we recommend as a minimum edition for those who want to reduce the printing price, you pay only  £1750 excluding shipping and book VAT.

If you print larger editions, the unit price will be clearly lower, please email us at [email protected] with your wishes and we will return with a quote!

Let us do what we do best and focus instead on doing what you do best - writing books! With us, your manuscript is in safe hands.
