A better way to publish
Publishing your own book can be exciting. It can also feel overwhelming.
There's editing to consider. Covers to design. Page layouts, ISBNs, publishing platforms, printing options and countless little decisions that aren't always easy to make alone.
You don't have to figure it all out by yourself.
At Australis Press Publishing, we bring the pieces together and guide you through the process, one stage at a time.
You shouldn't have to give away ownership of your original story simply because you've asked for help publishing it.
You retain ownership of your original manuscript and creative material. Rights to commissioned final work are set out in your service agreement, with ownership transferring on full payment as agreed and any third-party licences clearly identified.

Let's talk about the practical side
It's often the first question an author wants to ask.
And it deserves a straightforward answer.
The cost depends on where your manuscript stands today and what kind of support you need.
A finished novel that only requires formatting and publishing assistance is a very different project from an illustrated children's book that needs artwork, editing, design and production.
We don't believe you should have to purchase services your book doesn't need.
That's why we begin by understanding your project and explaining the most suitable options.
For authors whose manuscripts are ready for production.
A practical route for authors who need professional book formatting, cover preparation and assistance with publishing.
