21st Century Publisher Puts Authors First

Through ease of production, nearly instant availability of worldwide publishing services today, Nightengale Press authors receive publishing information, book marketing training, one-on-one product development of their books, industry connectivity, online visibility, co-operative marketing opportunities, book store trade distribution, profit from their work, and a helping hand from the start.

NIGHTENGALE PRESS works in concert with LIGHTNING SOURCE, Inc. the industry leader in high-speed one at a time digital book printing in the United States with facilities in the USA, Canada and the UK. Our online books are distributed through INGRAM BOOK COMPANY and BAKER & TAYLOR making NIGHTENGALE PRESS books available upon request in all the major bookstores nationwide and fully available online at all the online booksellers. We are a Vendor of Record with BARNES AND NOBLE, and submit select titles to the Small Press Department for trade placement at Barnes and Noble Stores.

NIGHTENGALE PRESS partners with Writers in the Sky Creative Writing Services to offer a SOUP-TO-NUTS publishing option that produces fully edited and proofread books at a great savings to the author. Book editing and book proofreading, or children's book illustration can be included in the SOUP-TO-NUTS contract.


Book marketing expertise, book advertising and publicity, and co-operative promotional options with FOREWORD MAGAZINE and the INDEPENDENT BOOK PUBLISHERS ASSOCIATION (formerly PMA) provide authors cost-effective rates for marketing their books. Representation at the major trade shows in London, Frankfurt, Bologna and the United States give our authors' books international exposure.

NIGHTENGALE PRESS pays the highest royalty percentages in the industry, and NIGHTENGALE PRESS authors also can benefit from choosing fully independent websites dedicated to their books which are designed by web4w.com through NIGHTENGALE MEDIA LLC. These
websites are uniquely designed for high traffic online visibility. The author can show video and audio clips, has integrated email, can write articles and post reveiws, and the sites link with the NIGHTENGALE PRESS book store for ease of processing sales. Also, available for creation are custom book video commercials, posted on YourBookTube.com, the author's independent website, and other video sites.
