Many authors have discovered the hard way how difficult it is these days to get their book published.

To illustrate just how hard it is, The Weekend Australian ( July 15-16 2006) submitted Patrick White’s Eye of the Storm, one of Australian literature’s most lauded novels to 10 Australian publishers, and not one of them expressed interest. If Patrick White cannot get published, you have to ask yourself what chance you really have!

Melbourne Books is responding to the demand of authors who have labored long over their manuscript to make their publishing dream a reality.

We can walk you through the publishing process from editing and layout to distribution and book sales.

We can advise of the appropriate page layout, cover design, editing, production, marketing and distribution for your book and deliver a professionally produced book to your requirements.

You will retain all rights to your work and determine in close consultation, how many books you want to print.

You may only want sufficient copies of your book for family and friends, however if your ambition is to have the book available in bookstores around Australia as well on the internet, we can provide assistance.

If you are interested in discussing your book project, please complete the Submission form on this website.
