      I highly recommend Gatekeeper to anyone looking for a high-quality publisher. 100% professional. Competitive pricing. Everyone I interacted with took the time to promptly address all questions and concerns. It felt like having family or a best friend along for the ride.

      I just published my novel about *************** General *********************. It was a great pleasure to work with ******************************* at Gatekeeper Press. She did a fabulous job walking me through the process. I'm partcularly impressed with the interactive development of my book, which allows me to make edits during and after publication. This is especially critical for a historic novel wherein I sent advance copies to editor friends and received their comments and corrections.

      I first learned of Gatekeeper Press when I went in search of a new publisher after I realized that my initial publisher was taking way too much of my royalties and I learned that there are publishers who allow the author to keep 100% (less a few small printing fees, etc). I found another publisher but unfortunately did not do my proper research and they were horrible and I was out $1600 in republishing fees. While on ****************** one day I happened to wander onto their page of recommended self publishers. It is not a long list, which should tell you something. There are not many reputable self publishers out there, unfortunately. I scheduled a call with the Director of ***************************** *************************, and immediately knew I had come to the right place. He worked out a fair deal to republish my book yet again after the 2nd publisher ruined it, and in addition I decided to publish my 3rd book with Gatekeeper. I was assigned Author Manager *************************** and she is amazing! Every step of the way ***** has been there for me to answer questions, offer guidance and suggestions, or sometimes just to put my mind at ease. As far as the book, the editing process is fabulous (I never knew my grammar and punctuation were so bad!) and everything from layout to cover design was top notch. You can put my Gatekeeper books up to any traditionally published book in a brick and mortar store and you could not tell that mine is self published. That being said, you get what you pay for and quality does not come cheap. I most likely won't earn back in royalties what I have invested in the process, so my advise is to publish your book for the love...not the money. And invest in a company you trust 100%. For me that will be Gatekeeper Press for as many books as I still have in me to write. I just recently submitted my fourth book to Gatekeeper and it is currently going through the editing process. I am so excited to see the finished product and I know it will be amazing!

      I would like to take this opportunity to take the time to say a BIG thank you to entire team of professionals over at Gatekeeper Press. Especially so to my gracious and trusted Author Manager ************************* who has held my hand and consistently helped assuage all the concerns that I had through the publication of not one, but two books. Anyone who has published a book knows how intricate and involved the process can be. Having someone in your corner who is knowledgeable, professional, and always willing to go that extra mile is always going to be a big plus. I wholeheartedly recommend Gatekeeper Press to anyone who is serious about publishing a book! ***********************

      As an independently published author who has published via several publishers, I rate Gatekeeper Press head and shoulders above the others, both large and small. Gatekeeper provides me with a high quality, professional publication that turns heads and generates conversation at my displays. Gatekeeper is a pleasure to work with during the formatting and printing process! *********************** ************************

      I want to thank Gatekeeper Press for a job extremely well done publishing my book Ludicrous Returns vs. The Market. I especially want to thank my Author Manager, who guided and coached me through the entire process. She has been truly remarkable. The Gatekeeper team was extremely flexible and accommodating. Further, they provided a high quality, honest job, at a great price. I would certainly recommend Gatekeeper to anyone!

      Gatekeeper Press made me feel like family and becoming friends for my first time experience in writing a book. The staff was excellent and very professional. My Author Manager was very encouraging especially during 2020 between the pandemic and the lockdown. I almost lost my mother (who is the author) almost died because of the lockdown. During that season I had many obstacles to overcome, however, I kept moving forward with encouraging words from staff members. For my first time experience in having a book published with Gatekeeper Press, I would do it again. Thank you Gatekeeper Press!************

      I have had 3 wonderful experiences with Gatekeeper Press team in publishing 3 books! These partnerships with the company truly showed me that Gatekeeper Press 100% embodies their philosophy of treating their authors like family! I requested for the same author manager on my second and third books. She showed remarkable professionalism, timeliness, attention to detail and her invaluable support was consistent through each phase of the publishing process for all three books. The Gatekeeper Press team delivered through-and-through, I am so grateful for their professionalism, care, and incredibly talented team. All three of my books front and back covers were stunningly designed! The interior formatting was impeccable for all three books, the formatters flawlessly incorporated all my content changes in each of the books. The recommendations made by the team for meta-data optimization and cover graphic design edits were totally on par for all three books. Plus, Gatekeeper Press has timely and effective post publishing support.

      I had an issue with editing the first time around and the *** himself got involved. The problem was rectified and the book was published. I am giving my story about a problem incurred to let people know that the *** himself is very invested in the company. That says a lot!
