Biography Publishing You don't have to be rich or famous to write an interesting, successful biography or memoir. (Some of the most boring books ever written were about the rich and famous.) But if you have the ability to be brutally (or even humorously) honest about yourself, people will read it. They'll read it because the truth about anyone's life...the unvarnished and detailed truth...is endlessly fascinating.
Business Book Publishing If you own or manage a business, one of the best things you can do for yourself and for the business is to write a book. This is a more effective form of advertising and promotion than any newsletter or brochure could ever be. As an author, you achieve a credibility and stature that only few business people attain. And it doesn't necessarily have to be a full-length book. Business pamphlets - anywhere from 24 pages to 100 pages - have achieved the kind of sales that are the envy of writers who took ten times as long and ten times as many pages.
Childrens Book Publishing Most people who want to publish a children's book are surprised to discover that a book filled with full color illustrations will cost more to produce than they can sell it for. (Unless you're prepared to print several thousand books.) The only economical way to do short-run children's books is to prepare the illustrations in black ink-line drawings or halftones. You can have a full color cover, course. And if you want to you can even include up to four pages of color illustrations.
Christian Book Publishing The growth of Christian bookstores over the last few decades testifies to the enormous interest in this subject. If you have an inspiring story to tell - a story about faith, hope, peace - there are people who want to read about it. Fiction, memoir, poetry, even children's books, are all forms equally suited for sharing the religious experience.
Cookbook Publishing The world seems to have an insatiable appetite for cookbooks. Many cookbooks are merely catalogs of recipes. What we like are cookbooks with personality, and that's why we've published two by the same lady...Cookie Queen Pat Condelli. She's not only a fine cook, she's a fine writer too. But if you're more comfortable at the stove than at the typewriter, we can help you to get your cookbook out into the world. And we can also help you to turn your collection of recipes into a profitable fundraiser for your church or service organization.
Fiction Book Publishing Fiction continues to be the most popular categories among writers, even though all of the evidence shows that fiction is the most difficult to sell. If you want to write a novel that can find a niche audience, try the approach of two of our writers: that is, ground your fictional story in the kind of facts that readers can measure. Runners' Blood, mentioned below in sports, is a great example. So is our RX for Mass Murder, a novel based on the author's many years as a litigant against the drug industry.
History Book Publishing Don't know much about history? Americans are sometimes accused of having short memories and shallow traditions compared with older European nations. But in recent years history has become something of a national pastime. We can't seem to get enough of the past, and now the bestseller list includes titles such as the Pulitzer Prize winning Founding Brothers. In addition, community histories have caught fire around the country, and interest in genealogy has made family history books increasingly popular. We have also noticed a growing interest in company/corporate histories. This is a wonderful way to preserve a record of a firm's growth and development, its influence in the marketplace, and the story of the men and women who made the company what it is. We welcome any inquires about the preparation and pricing of corporate histories.
Legal Advice Book Publishing One of the best ways attorneys can market their law office is to write a legal advice book. If you are an expert in a specific area of law, such as personal injury, DUI, social security disability, divorce, workers compensation, car insurance, and many other subjects, becoming a published author catapults you ahead of the competition. You’ll spend far less publishing a book than you spend for a Yellow Pages ad—and you’ll quickly learn that a book is a far more effective form of marketing. Many lawyers are intimidated about the prospect of writing a book, but Word Association will show you how you can do it easily, quickly, and affordably, guiding you every step of the way.
Military Book Publishing Books about military experiences, and particularly books about World War II, are among the most popular in the nation right now. We have several outstanding titles in this category, and we welcome manuscripts from authors who have an interesting military story to tell. If you have a war story but you need help with the writing, Word Association can help turn your memories into a book.
Non-Fiction Book Publishing Are you writing a book? Have you wondered, "How can I publish my book?" Word Association Publishers can help you publish your own book - contact us today!
Poetry Book Publishing Few people write poetry to make money, so although we encourage manuscripts from talented poets, we do so with the tacit understanding that you will keep your day job. Some of the finest writers on our list are poets, but they embarked upon this publishing adventure with few illusions as to the marketability of their creations. Art for art's sake. We greatly admire these people!
Self-Help Book Publishing This is the section in every bookstore that rings up the highest sales. It started about 30 years ago with I'm OK, You're Ok, and continues today with such best sellers as Rich Dad Poor Dad and Chicken Soup for the Soul and its endless spin-offs leading the crowded pack. If you've got a book about how to make people healthier, wealthier or happier, you can sell a lot of books.
Sports Book Publishing You don't have to be an athlete to write a book about sports, but you do have to be an impassioned expert in some phase of it. Books about golf sell in the millions, and we've got quite a good one on our list. Books about running have been hugely popular for more than 20 years now, starting with The Complete Book of Running in the 1980s. And a sports book doesn't necessarily have to be non-fiction. Check out our superb thriller, Runners' Blood, a novel with a solid scientific grounding. Flying continues to be one of the leading hobbies in the world, and many amateur flyers also like to write about their experiences. We have three fine titles in which flying plays a central or supporting role, and since each of them is selling briskly, it's clear that people like reading about small airplanes and their adventuresome owners.
