Common Questions?

How will it help me?

By writing and self-publishing your book, you control your story and platform. However, when you get picked up by a publishing house, you’re signing over the rights to your book. Editors may force you to change content and even the title. The publisher decides the cover price, and it may be horrendous. By self-publishing, you choose the content, design and cover of your book, the retail price, and where it is distributed. Whether you want to get noticed by a major publishing company, or simply use your published work to springboard into a consulting career, we’re with you every step of the way.

Remember, if you still have questions, feel free to call and ask for Larry Furlong at 602-263-0122.

The advantages of self-publishing

Author control - Book content, format, cover design, marketing and other critical decisions are made entirely by the author.

Publication speed - Self-published books can be brought to market in several months or less. E-books are even faster.

Rights are retained - All rights to self-published books belong to the author, without having to share profits with a traditional publisher.
No excess inventory - With our custom printing service, print only the books you need, when you need them.

Self-publishing, your local one-stop shop!

AlphaGraphics Camelback in the heart of Phoenix's Biltmore area is the local print shop who really knows short-run book printing. All our books are printed onsite in our 10,000 square foot production facility, never sent offsite or out of state!

If you need just a little help, or a lot of help, we are here for you. Talk face-to-face with us and see actual printed samples. We realize just how important printing your book is, and we go the extra mile to get all the details right.

We offer soft paperback binding (perfect binding), or hard back case binding with dusk jackets. Plastic coil or wire “O” is also available. Choose the best binding for your genre. Are you creating a cookbook with pages that lay flat? Maybe you’re writing a novel and want a paperback binding? Is yours a large format book that will sit on a coffee table? Explore all your binding options with our experienced design team, all local, right here in Phoenix.

Most of our customers come to us because they want to talk directly to a real person, not communicate through a string of emails, nor deal with unreturned phone calls. Printing a book can be complicated. Talking to people who know the trade makes all the difference in the world. Sometimes, a few minutes with one of our knowledgeable staff, along with inspecting some printed samples, paper swatches, and binding choices can clear up a lot of questions quickly. If you want to have a one-on-one chat with a true book publishing expert, ask for Larry Furlong, or better yet, call him directly at 602-515-0265. Larry has over 20 years of book publishing experience at the Camelback location in the Biltmore area. Or if you like, you can email Larry at: Lfurlong@alphagraphics.com. All emails returned in less than 4 hours normally!
