We focus on stories with LDS characters confronting difficult issues, but those issues, including sex, violence, and sacred ordinances, must be treated tastefully. No blasphemy or anti-Mormon slants. We’re a family-run firm, and we are very responsive to authors’ questions and concerns. While we edit thoroughly, we make no changes to the text without the author’s express approval. The author has final approval of cover art as well. We produce our books with POD technology, so production time is generally less than six months from acceptance. Cover price for trade paperbacks under 300 pages (about 90,000 words) is a competitive $14. 95.
