About Us

Our philosophy at Kensington Pond Books is to help you publish your book, story or poem for yourself, not by yourself. We will provide you with a customized publishing program designed exclusively for your story.

Each aspiring author's needs are unique and our pledge is to provide you a customized publishing program and not a pre-priced predetermined package.

Editorial Services

With over 75 years of combined editorial experience, we can provide both professionalism and polish to your book, story or poem. Our editorial professionals will provide you with an expert evaluation and assist you with grammar, sentence structure, character development, while maintaining the integrity of your story.

Administrative Services

We will provide on your behalf complete copyright service along with all library and commercial bar coding required for you to publish, file and sell your title. Administrative Services will provide all necessary payment systems such as credit card and check processing for the sale of your title. Last but not least, Administrative Services will be responsible for shipping your sold books to your customers as well as provide a monthly report of your titles activities.

Pre- Print, Proofing and Publishing Service

This is where your title is made publication-ready based on your size and specifications. We will provide cover design, chapter organization and formatting. You will receive 3 proofs of your title prior to publication, each of which will have annotations and suggestions to assist you in the proofing process prior to actual printing.

Promotion, Distribution, Marketing & Sales Service

Once your title is proofed and printed we will design a custom program to position your book for maximum sales potential. We will register your book's webpage with all major internet search engines. You will receive an announcement kit that will allow you to personally follow through with over 250 book sellers and distributors. We will submit your title to all available book sellers such as Amazon and Barnes and Noble, plus all distributors and book catalog services. Your book will be featured as a new author in the Kensington Pond Book Store's Best Seller List.
