    I would not go with this company as they do not do what they say they are going to do. For instance, I have sent 10 of my published books to them and they have not responded with sales amounts. In fact I am CONCERNED THAT THEY HAVE REPRINTED MY BOOK WITH THEIR LABEL as I am not receiving any royalties from them and I am seeing my book available in random bookstores.I would hope that this problem can be solved without the need for legal action.

    Poor communication and lack of transparency. They dont answer questions or get results. They even act like it is hard to send you earned royalties. Almost no return on the massive investments you make with them. It is strongly implied that all the investments will help you get a big contract with a traditional publisher. Sometimes months go by without a phone call or email.

    Are these people a good company to deal with? Do you only have to have one publisher of your book or can you have many sellers? Meaning different companies

    What can I say about Authors Breeze publishing other than (and I am quoting ***********, son of Ecthelion II in LOTR) FLEE, SAVE YOURSELVES IN WHATEVER MANNER YOU CAN!Yes, run screaming into the night rather than use these grifters. Here are my SPECIFIC complaints:1. Spotty knowledge and conflicting advice regarding publishing in general. (***********************)2. Good sales pitch and not followed up. (***************************)3. They said I could speak with my team leader. All phone numbers blocked and no returned calls. (They talked freely to get a payment, though)4. Formatting was a joke. 5. Pitched that they would republish a book in a week6 months later nothing! (Said that Amazon was having trouble on their end. This was not true. (Not sureis this to be construed as a lie?)7. Had to do a charge back through my CC account. (Pending so we'll see)Well, that's my story and I'm sticking to it. Have fun with these nit ****.

    ***** called me last night and again at 8:30 this morning trying to get me to sign on to his project. I asked for an email about Authors Press and he sent one to me. Very unprofessional looking. This smelled fishy from the get go and then more so after I saw the email. On the phone he flattered me about my book, telling me that I could reach so many more potential customers by joining his thing. Very weird. After the second phone call I told him to leave me alone and stop calling.
