Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the country, but its creative, academic, business, and literary communities have always had an outsized influence.
Authors throughout Providence, Newport, Warwick, Cranston, Narragansett, and the rest of Rhode Island are writing books with audiences that extend far beyond New England.
Seacoast Press helps those authors bring their manuscripts to market through professional publishing, distribution, and marketing services.
A Professional Alternative to Traditional Publishing
For many writers, traditional publishing is no longer the only path worth considering.
The conventional route may require securing a literary agent, submitting to publishers, waiting through lengthy review periods, and potentially giving up significant control over the book.
Publishing independently offers more freedom, but it can also leave the author responsible for managing every part of the process.
Seacoast Press provides another option.
Authors can work with an experienced publishing team while retaining their rights, maintaining creative involvement, and receiving 100% of their royalties.
Editing, Design, and Production
The quality of the finished book matters.
Professional editing can strengthen the manuscript while preserving the author’s voice. Custom cover design can help the book appeal to the right audience. Professional interior formatting creates a cleaner and more credible reading experience.
Depending on the publishing program selected, Seacoast Press can provide editing, custom design, interior layout, ebook preparation, distribution, and other production services.
The finished book should reflect the quality of the work the author put into writing it.
Nationwide Distribution From a New England Publisher
Authors do not need to choose between working with a regional publisher and reaching a national audience.
Books published through Seacoast Press can be made available through major retailers such as Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Target.com, Walmart.com, and other retail channels.
That gives Rhode Island authors access to professional publishing support close to home without limiting the potential reach of their books.
Marketing Opportunities for Authors
A book cannot succeed if no one knows it exists.
Seacoast Press offers professional marketing programs for authors who want to increase awareness and strengthen their public profiles.
Services may include Amazon bestseller campaigns, digital advertising, social media promotion, publicity, and press coverage opportunities on NBC, CBS, and FOX affiliate websites.
The appropriate strategy depends on what the author hopes to accomplish.
Some authors want to reach more readers. Others want to build authority, support a business, attract speaking opportunities, or strengthen an existing personal brand.
