Are you ready to harness the secret power of 'Underground Publishing' to quickly deliver your message to the world ?!?
If you are already a member of the Author Underground...
We figured out Self-Publishing so now you don't have to …
The only thing left is for you to finish your book!
We have taken away the excuses that used to hold you back when it comes to writing, publishing, and marketing your book.
No longer do you have to be concerned about agents, query letters, rejections and publishing houses.
When you indie-publish, the only thing you need to concern yourself with is writing the best book that you can, because publishing is guaranteed.
Today’s technology makes this possible!
What used to be reserved for only big corporations and big publishing houses is now available to you. Professional printing of high-quality books is now affordable to the independent author and boy, it is a game-changer!
Today, we see unknown authors rising up in the Amazon rankings, all based on the quality of their work and not on who published them.
If you have ever wanted to write, publish, and market your book, NOW IS THE TIME!
We went from 1 title to 9 titles in less than 2 years!
After 15 depressing months of being with a “traditional” publisher, we finally ‘wised up’ and pulled our book from them in order to go 100% independent.
Man, are we glad we did that! That very first month, we made more in royalty money than in a full year and three months with those other guys.
Not only that, but we were able to ‘put the pedal down’ and publish one title right after the other until we got it down to a system.
Now, we not only publish our own books in less than 40 days, we help numerous other authors publish theirs too.
