“I'd carried my mother's story for twenty years. The Hale team helped me find the words — and when I held the finished hardcover, I cried. It's exactly the book I dreamed of.”

Ask a QuestionWhat makes The Hale Publishing different?
We put authors and their stories first. Instead of a one-size-fits-all package, we learn your goals, genre and audience, then build a publishing path around them — with a dedicated manager, experienced editors and designers, and honest guidance at every stage.
What publishing services do you offer?
Everything from the first round of edits to launch day: autobiography writing, manuscript assessment, development, editing and proofreading, cover and interior design, publishing, Amazon publishing, audiobooks, printing, marketing and distribution — plus specialised genre publishing.
Can you help if my manuscript isn’t finished?
Absolutely. A rough draft, scattered ideas, voice notes or unfinished chapters are all welcome. We help you develop and refine your work while keeping your original voice and vision intact.
How involved can I be in the process?
As involved as you like. You approve every important creative decision — edits, cover, formatting and final presentation — while we handle the technical details and keep communication clear from day one.
Do you help with marketing and distribution?
Yes. A published book needs to be discovered. We build marketing and distribution plans around your book, genre and readers — from author platforms and launch campaigns to worldwide retail and library availability.
Do I keep the rights and royalties?
Always. Your book is yours — you retain full ownership of your work and 100% of the royalties you earn.
How do I get started?
Share a few details about your book and where you are in the writing process. A publishing consultant will reach out within one working day to discuss your project and send a clear, no-obligation quote.
