Publishing through Archway was very expensive Publishing through Archway was very expensive. My book was a children's story in need of illustrations. The illustrations provided by Archway were poorly done, and I only had 2 chances to make corrections. My suggested changes were ignored. The drawings did not meet my expectations.

Quality Printing, But Modest Support I knew what I was getting into and wasn't expecting too much. They did a good job formatting the book and doing all the stuff behind the scenes to get it listed in Amazon, B&N, and make it available in catalogs. However, don't fall for the marketing add-ons. They send out press releases, but there's no follow-up. In short, there's no guarantee or real effort to try to get your book reviewed or in stores. Maybe I had a poor marketing rep, but they only did the bare minimum and were never proactive. I always had to reach out to them. It's not a scam, but there's not a ton of value in what they claim as marketing.

I published my first book with Archway… I published my first book with Archway Publishing a few weeks ago. They were very professional and helpful through the whole process. My book was 612 pages and took a lot of work to complete, but they were there each step of the way to make sure the book was completed the way I wanted it. I would highly recommend Archway to anyone wishing to publish.

Little things mean a lot In general, the experience was okay. However, a question I asked about empty pages was not answered correctly. Little things like these mean a lot. The printed copy has empty pages that could have been used. I also missed a typo that I want to fix.

Archway Publishing has been a great…team of experts Archway Publishing has been a great experience for my first publishing experience. My initial quest to get the ball rolling during a time life got extremely busy, and had to put this process on hold. No matter how long it took, Archway was ready and waiting for me, as they were about their business. The process was exciting, scary, fun and now published and ready to share.
