Poetry for Mental Health can help you self-publish your poetry collection / manuscript via your own Amazon KDP platform (we'll guide you through opening up a publishing account if you don't already have one - it's linked to your regular Amazon account).

We can:

• Format your manuscript for paperback and Kindle.
• Register the title, author, ISBN, key words, etc.
• Design a cover (front/back and spine).
• Download and publish completed print-ready files (body, cover) and then publish in both paperback and Kindle to the global Amazon KDP platform. Amazon Print on Demand books are available in 13 countries worldwide - click on any of our books to view the countries this service currently covers.

Also includes a FEATURED POET page on this website showcasing a few examples from your book.

Once this is published we then hand the Amazon account back to you, so you get paid royalties directly from Amazon every month - we don't have any further access to your account - you earn 100% royalties on every unit you sell. You can also order up to 999 author copies at a time direct from Amazon at cost (roughly 50-60% of the retail value) for you to sell, giveaway, etc.

If you decide to go ahead we will need:

• The completed manuscript.
• Title (subtitle) and author's name exactly as you'd like it registered.
• The blurb for the back and for Amazon book's description.
• The author's bio.
• An author's picture for the back (optional, but quite a few books do have the author on the back cover).
• Extra pages, eg foreword, dedication page, acknowledgments etc.

Prices start from just £250* (GBP), which includes paperback and Kindle versions. *This is based on a typical poetry collection of between 60 and 100 pages. In terms of turnaround, depending upon the status of your manuscript, and your requirements for the cover etc, you could probably have a book through your letterbox in a couple of weeks from the go ahead!
