I cannot recommend Author Gate highly enough. As a new author, the entire process has been a huge learning curve, but from the very first submission through to publication and marketing, the whole team have been incredibly supportive. Every stage was clearly explained, thoughtfully managed, and handled with genuine care and professionalism. I never felt rushed or out of my depth; instead, I felt guided and encouraged throughout. The team worked closely with me at every step, and I am truly grateful for their patience, expertise, and enthusiasm. A massive thank you to everyone at Author Gate.

My experience with Author Gate was very positive. As someone who didn’t have any experience in publishing or writing, I was nervous at first, but from the very beginning, they made me feel comfortable and supported. Their team offered such helpful suggestions for rewrites that really made my book shine without changing what I wanted to say. I felt like they truly listened to me, which meant the world. They never belittled or made any of my questions sound silly. Never patronising. All of the women I spoke to were especially kind and welcoming. They always took the time to explain things when I had questions and made the whole process feel a lot less overwhelming. Having heard lots of horror stories I was nervous to go with Author Gate first, but I am glad I did. I know I am lucky to have found a legitimate publishing house that cares about its writers. It’s clear they know exactly what they’re doing. It’s not been easy at all, some of it has been really hard work. But in the end a good rewarding experience, and I’m really looking forward to continuing to work with them in the future to promote my book.

I chose to publish my book Obsession with Author Gate because they genuinely cared about the heart of my story. From the beginning, their team took time to understand my characters, not just the plot, and helped me refine the narrative in meaningful ways. Their editorial guidance, especially around character motivations, strengthened the story and clarified why each character made the choices they did. The process felt collaborative and respectful, and I always felt heard. Overall, I had a very positive experience with Author Gate, from development through publication. I would confidently recommend them to other authors seeking thoughtful, professional support. I’m also grateful to have found a legitimate publishing company and a true traditional publishing house that values quality storytelling as much as I do. In addition to publishing, Author Gate provided extensive marketing support. They handled press releases, assisted professional video packages, built and managed my author website, and organised public appearances and signings. They also supported social media promotion, coordinated outreach to reviewers and media outlets, assisted with online advertising, and ensured proper distribution and metadata so my book is available for sale online and in bookstores.
