How many Authors/Co-Authors allowed at Comp 1 Table?
Minimum/Maximum of Authors is 2
How many books will each Author receive?
Each of you will receive 60 quality books, with YOUR chapter inside delivered to your door.
How many pages will be included in this book package?
Maximum pages is 100
What format will this book be available in?
All of our books are printed on trade paper (Paperback). We do offer to print your books in hard cover at an additional $12.00 per book including shipping. eBooks are available as well.
What if I want to add colorful art or photos to my section of the manuscript?
Colored pages can be added for a charge of .75 each page
What size is this book?
Book Size: 5.5x8
Do you offer the published book in a different size such as 6x9?
No- changing the book size means that the manuscript has to undergo a new formatting session. If we were to allow different sized for this project, it would mean more money being charged. You have the option of publishing your own book and choosing which size you desire.
Since I am sharing book space with another Author, who holds the copyright or ownership of my manuscript?
Each Author will own his/her copyright of the work submitted for production. Copyright registration fee is included in the price per Author.
What else is included in the Comp book?
Griot Publishing will include a page outlining how other authors can become published, and reserves the right to inform readers of additional products and services in any publication. All authors taking part can promote any product or service they offer in their bio at the end of their chapter, however you cannot do so in the body of your chapter, only at the end. This extra page will not be included as a charge in your package. Griot Publishing reserves the right to reject productsservices that are a conflict of interest to the co-Author or book subject.
Who owns the copyright to the book?
Griot Publishing owns the copyright to the actual book, however, YOU (Author) retain full copyright for your own contributed chapter. Since you are the owner of your chapter within the book, you can use it as an article, expand on it to write a complete book or record it for a bonus mp3 audio. You do not have the right to use your co-Author’s chapters outside of the contract without the written permission from him/her for any reason.
Will I get printed credentials for my contributions to the compilation book?
Yes! Your NAME appears on the FRONT COVER along with your co-Author.
Will I be able to have any information about me and my business in the books?
Of Course! At the end of your chapter there will be room for you to include your name, your business name, your website, address, phone, an offer to encourage people to your website. The idea of the book is to showcase you to the world, so we make it easy for the media and potential clients and customers to contact you.
What price should I sell my books for?
The book will be priced at $16.95 each and printed in the barcode. We included the price on the back cover to allow you leverage to adjust the price as you wish. We recommend that you sell your book for $12.95 + $2.95 shipping and handling. You can also sell it for $16.95 and offer free shipping. At the end of the day, it is up to you whatever price you choose to sell it for.
Do I have to split my book sells with my co-Author/Authors?
Of course not. Whatever you make on your book sells is your profit. You don’t even owe Griot Publishing any part of your profit either. Each Author will obtain his/her own amount of books to sell as they wish. All Authors will keep their own profits.
Can I order extra books outside of those included in my package?
Yes. You may order up to 5000 books at one time. If you want to order more than that in a single order, contact customer service for a price quote.
How much does it cost to order extra books?
Each additional book priced @ $3.95 + shipping & handling.
Will there be an ISBN on my compilation book and if so, how much is the ISBN?
Griot Publishing ISBN is included on all compilations
Can I purchase my own ISBN for the compilation book instead?
No. Compilation books are not considered to be self- published material. Each compilation book is published under Griot Publishing House Inc. and will contain our number. Read more about ISBN’s here.
Will you edit my manuscript before including it in the Comp book?
Yes. We will perform basic editing on every manuscript being submitted for each Comp Table. If your manuscript requires extensive editing, you will be given the option to purchase our proofreading/editing service that will correct your manuscript and get it print ready. You can also work with your co-Author to help you with your chapter to avoid additional costs.
What if my chapter is rejected?
It is almost impossible for us to reject a chapter. This is because our goal is to connect you with other Authors who would make great co-Authors in a comp book. However, while we believe we can find a place for any Author, we are aware that there may be that one time where we will have to reject a chapter. If WE do not accept your chapter (at the sole discretion of Griot Publishing), we will refund 100% of your down payment, so you have nothing to lose!
How long does it take for my books to reach my doorstep?
Books ship 2 days AFTER all Authors have signed off on their manuscript. Deliver takes between 4-7 business days.
How much do I have to pay for shipping my books to my doorstep?
Standard Shipping within the US is included in the price. Contact customer service for any shipments outside of the U.S.
How much can I make off of my book?
That depends on you. The profit that you can make is based on a few factors:
1. How much you sell your book for;
2. How many books you purchase at one time. When you replenish your book stock, the more books that you purchase the cheaper the unit price is. The cheaper the unit price is, the more you will profit. For example: If you purchase 100 extra books @ $3.75 each, and you sell them for $12.95 each, that means a $9.00 profit for you. You will make approximately $900.00 profit after spending only $375 plus shipping and handling.
What if I change my mind?
Each Comp Table has a set amount of Authors which have deadlines, so once you've committed to be included in a Comp book, we prefer that you follow through with your commitment for that book. Although there are no refunds (except if WE reject your chapter), we do understand things happen. So in some instances we can transfer you to a future book project at a later date if required. For full terms and conditions see here
Will the book be translated into other languages?
We have no plans to do so at this stage. However, should a foreign publisher be interested, then we will definitely look into expanding to other countries!
I have written a book/have a manuscript - can I send it to you?
When you want someone to review your work, you should have their undivided attention. The Griot Publishing staff already has their plate full working with other Authors trying to make deadlines, so with that being said, please do NOT send us any manuscripts/books or ask us to read any at this time. We do offer an Assessment service if you desire professionals to proofread your work.
Are there any other payment plans available...possibly more than 6 months?
Because others are on the same project and deadlines have to be made, we do not offer payment plans that will exceed past 6 months. Because we do not offer refunds, we have made our payment plans under $100 to assist in making it easier for you to make your payments. Please make sure that this is something that you can commit to before making your down payment and sending in your manuscript.
Can I claim the publishing cost as a tax deduction?
Well, we're not tax advisers or accountants, so please get a professional's advice.
What we Do
At Griot Publishing, we want to provide a format and system that would not only print your books for you, but help guide you in putting your thoughts on a paper canvas. We provide you with the means to publish your book world-wide in every format: Softcover, Hardcover and eBook. We are working on providing the Audio Book format in the near future. We don’t make empty promises such as “your gonna be a best seller”, or "we can get your book on ever major bookshelf." We are up front with you, and although we provide you with the tools and knowledge on how to market your book, we understand that the best person to make your book a success is YOU.
