    I have just published my second novel with Covenant books, and I am thrilled with both books! This is a great group of people to work with! Publishing these two books has been precious to me because through these two historical fictional works, I have been able to record for posterity the story of my ancestors on my West line! Years of research, along with the assistance of the very capable people at Covenant Books, made it possible for me to realize this dream! As a high school English teacher, being able to do my own edits to my satisfaction has been the perfect scenario for publishing both of these books in a series-- ******* ***** ***** ** **** ***** and ******* ****** ****** ** ******** *****. I have a group of faithful fans of my work, and they have raved about both books! Thank you, ********** and your team, for helping me make this goal a very meaningful reality!

    ************** played an outstanding role in helping me get my memoir published. This type of work was new to me even though I have written a text book and 20 conference papers and journal articles in the past. I was very nervous about approaching this job. ****** went out of her way to explain things and make positive suggestions. She made the work enjoyable and fun. Thanks to her, we had a smooth ride with no glitches.

    For a first time novelist God guided me to one and only place I feel in my heart that He wanted me. Covenant Books is a ***************************** which is indeed a blessing, and that is reflected in their mission not only to their company but to me too. They are extremely easy to work with and they took their time explaining the process and what to expect. That is from the first phone call I made until this very day. Nothing is done without my approval. I was assigned the very best publishing assistant (*******) who not only represents Covenant Books, me and herself but in the most professional encouraging way. I am very blessed and would encourage anyone to consider Covenant Books. From 1-10.....I give them 100!!!!

    I am a scholar, author, and world traveler basically a lifelong learner. At this point, I have seven books to my credit and 43 years as a college prof. I want to commend Covenant Books of ************** ** and their very fine Publication Coordinator, ******************; together they have delivered 5-star professionalism in producing my last two volumes. I couldn't be happier with ********'s attention to detail and integrity. Sincerely, ******* ** ******, D.Min., Ph.D.

    My experience with Covenant Books as a first time author was nothing short of amazing. From the first contact through ***************************, Covenant was great! I had the pleasure of working with ******* as my publication assistant - every review of her on ****** and on BBB is absolutely true. Her communication is great and she goes to bat for you every step of the way. I'm so thankful to have been able to work with her! Long story short, work with Covenant Books. You will not be disappointed!

    This will be my 3rd book published with Covenant Books. The process and stages of publishing a book are fairly difficult for a newcomer to understand. Sometimes there are 2 different names for one process and that gets confusing. Going through the process of publishing a book is, at best, a ten month to one year endeavor, if everything goes exactly right. With my first book, **** *** **** ** * ******* I was so excited and eager to get each step just right, I would eagerly anticipate each email from *****. After my 2nd book, *** ****** **** ** *********** I was more relaxed and knew it took a while longer than the five to seven months mentioned. My 3rd book, *** ****** **** ** *********** *** **********, has gone fairly smooth, with a bump in the color of eyes in the Illustration stage slowing the process by a month or so.

    My advice to newbies would be to be patient and keep all files and email exchanges you have with your Publication Assistant. It will come in handy to verify and refresh you on what was said and done, as well as keep you in line and on the right path for your next stage of the book process.
    I love writing books, but feel this 3rd book will be my last one for a while. It should become available for purchase in Dec/Jan.
    Always keep a good and friendly repore, even if you have a few gripes here and there. We are all human and I feel everyone is doing their best to give us a wonderful product we can be proud of in the end. Also, each of my books cost an average of $3500, which I had paid off before each book was published and available for purchase.
    Thank you.

    Writing a review- of anything, or anyone really- is fraught with danger. Conjuring up sweetness and light is pretty easy, though depending on the amount of shoveling involved it can make that image in the mirror look uncomfortably like your least favorite politician. But the worst part is writing a negative review. It never feels good and rarely serves any good purpose. Even when you couch the criticism in sarcasm: "Yes, the tune had a good beat and if I danced, well, it would be easy on the feet. But the lyrics reminded me of that cheese you think will be ok after the green stuff is scraped off..." So, reviewing is generally no fun. Of course, that presupposes something negative is being reviewed. In this case, that's just not true.
    The process at Covenant Publishing is excellent! From Ashley ******** introduction to the company to ****** ******* tireless response to my barrage of concerns, everything ran smoothly and seamlessly. The 'timeline' was always as good or better than predicted; the various stages of production were professionally executed; and the final product is beautifully done. In my case, I had experience with another publisher a few years back that was, by comparison, a tedious slog through a swamp, so I do know the difference. I fully expect a successful launch of my novel.
    Particular credit goes to ****** ***** who's cheerful, competence helped guide my novel through the various stages of production. It started out as a manuscript, flawed with typos and 'tense' moments, and ended with a book that is as nicely done as I ever could have wanted. In fairness, there was one bump along the road during the process. But ******, with her usual dispatch, made the bump go away. It's gotta be said that she's very, very good at her job. Thank you, ******!
    So, would I recommend Covenant Publishing to anyone who might be interested? Yes!
