Have you been struggling to get your book manuscript into print? Are publisher rejection notices piling up? Is it beginning to seem like your book project may never get off the ground? If so, you are not alone. Most unpublished authors are routinely rejected by publishing houses as a result of closed-door policies. Most houses no longer accept unsolicited manuscripts at all! Fortunately, independent self-published authors are welcomed at Illumina.

Illumina Book Design & Publishing helps first-time authors get their books designed, printed and accepted into international distribution channels. The books are top quality, and are competitively priced for retail and wholesale markets.

Illumina also develops and builds internet web sites to maximize our client's net presence, and online sales. Check out our web site gallery.

Illumina will supply printed books in any quantity, using either traditional book manufacturing or print-on-demand (POD). POD is popular with self-publishers because books are printed and shipped one-at-a-time as needed. POD eliminates the sizable initial investment of traditionally book printing and warehousing. POD orders are processed online, printed in the required quantity then shipped to purchasers... without the author having lifted a finger.

Illumina takes the hassle out of self-publishing. We will design and lay out the book, copyright our client's intellectual property, procure ISBN and Library of Congress numbers, and order laser bar codes. We will build your a customized author web site, and design post-production promotional advertising.

Don't reinvent the publishing wheel. Bring your manuscript to Illumina.
