Based in New Plymouth, Taranaki, we have clients throughout New Zealand and worldwide, and are uniquely placed to help you achieve your self-publishing goals.

PublishMe is owned and operated by husband and wife team, Giles and Lel Crosthwaite-Scott.

Giles is your dedicated account manager and handles your book from initial quote to final delivery. If you have any questions about the production process or the progress of your book, Giles is always on hand to help you. With over 25-years’ experience in printing and publishing, through Giles you have direct access to a wealth of knowledge and experience.

Lel handles the proofreading and editing of your book. She trained in the UK through Chapterhouse Publishing and now has over ten years’ experience in helping authors make their books the best they can be.

As an author, the key benefits of choosing PublishMe as your self-publishing partner are:

We handle all aspects of your book’s production: proofreading and editing, cover design and text layout, printing and binding – this saves you time and money, as you only have to deal with one company, and you’ll know exactly what’s happening at every stage of the publishing process.

No hidden costs – before we start work on your book, you’ll know exactly what it will cost, so no unexpected charges will be incurred.

No minimum orders – you can order the exact number of copies you need, so you won’t be left with boxes of books you don’t want.

Your books are produced by one dedicated team and every stage is completed in-house. A bookshop-quality end product can, therefore, be guaranteed, giving you peace of mind. You also have the assurance that if there is a problem it will be rectified quickly and efficiently, with no arguments, excuses or extra costs.

Your manuscript is backed up to our secure in-house servers, which means you have access to your information at all times. You are also able to make updates and amendments to your work whenever you choose.

What to do next

If you’d like to find out more about any aspect of the self-publishing process, please call or email Giles. If you’d prefer to meet face to face, this can also be arranged. Simply contact Giles to discuss a suitable time and place.

We look forward to working with you and helping you achieve your self-publishing dreams.
