ABOUT

Our Story

Frank Ferrari came to self-publishing knowing nothing. Like most first-time authors, he turned to the internet for guidance and found no shortage of resources, all promising to get his book published. What he didn't find was anyone explaining how, or anyone who seemed particularly bothered about the state of the manuscript before it went anywhere near a reader.

Eventually, Frank found something that actually worked: David Gaughran's Starting from Zero course that walked him through every stage of publishing on Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) platform, step by step. The lesson was clear – anybody can self-publish, as long as they're prepared to invest considerable time and effort in learning how.

Not everybody has that time. And most writers would rather spend it doing the thing they love, and are genuinely good at: writing.

That's why Hoss Publishing exists.

A one-stop shop for everything your manuscript needs, from first professional edit to the moment it goes live on Amazon. Hoss provides editing and proofreading to Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading standards, manuscript formatting, cover design, metadata, category positioning, and full KDP publication.

But what makes Hoss Publishing different isn't the list of services – you can find similar services anywhere. Our approach is what makes us unique. You can do all of this yourself. If you want to learn, we'll teach you, every step of the way. We won’t try to mystify you, and we won’t try to keep you dependent on us. We provide honest, skilled support, delivered by someone who has been through the whole process and has come out the other side with a published book – or three.

Whether this is your debut or the next addition to your growing catalogue, Hoss Publishing can refine it, shape it, and bring it to life. And if you choose to watch and learn along the way, you might find that by the time your next book is ready, you don't need us anymore.

And nothing would make us more proud.
