WHAT AUTHORS SAY ABOUT PUBLISHING WITH US

“Having read extensively online that your first book is rarely published, I sent Blame off to the usual list of publishers one can find easily online with limited expectation. I still have my first email from Foreshore. Their enthusiasm for the book jumped out of the screen. As a new author, I had a ton of questions to ask before agreeing to publish my book. All my questions were welcomed and answered. As a relatively new company, I knew that they would be willing to do the work to bring the book to market, and in return expand their own place in the market. It felt like the perfect fit. A formatting error on the first run of Blame was quickly discovered and dealt with. I had full confidence in Foreshore that this would be resolved. I value the knowledge and experience they have. In many ways it is priceless. Nothing is more rewarding than seeing your book listed on bookshops websites. That would never have happened had I gone down the self-publishing route. I hope that Blame is just the start of our journey together.”
Edward Burley, author of Blame.
