They stole more than $2017 from my MasterCard. Though they admitted that they received ALL the money they asked for, the book's material, and a clear statement that they will publish my book; they vanished and never published anything for me.
I WISH I had spent a few minutes to read other victims' comments. Please beware and don't send them any money. I am convinced now that the few positive comments about their so-called credibility are written by their associates. Beware of their many tentacles in London (UK)and in Indiana (USA).
I am at the final stages of getting my book published and started June 09 and now it is 18th August 2017. I had to approve all the changes but there was little creativity and input of the layout of the book from the production team. No initate at all to take control and run with it.
I found the editing of the book tedious and time consuming and Authorhouse hadn't even done a basic spell check (no full stops) at ends of sentences! etc. basic spelling corrections were ignored.
My book should well and truely be finished and on book shelves now but due to being passed like a football from on person to another no one seems to really care about my frustrations.
It has been very disappointing and if i had the choice i would back out of it and go to another publisher.
Please be careful to consider Authorhouse as a publisher that's my advice.
Gayle Walker
When I submitted my original manuscript, the first galley came back with many errors. Some mine but a lot that were AuthorHouse's input. Sent back corrections and then received another galley proof which I again reviewed and found more errors. Sent it back got another galley, thought I went through the whole thing and now that the book is out, I see where they have errors that they had made. I guess that it is my fault for not finding the third set of errors but I don't think I should have to spend my time and money correcting AuthorHouse's errors. My advice is, Stay away from AuthorHouse.
The same thing happened to me, and has the public been made aware of the fact that in 2017 this company has gone through some transactions and moves within the company, and some of the autors agents and files have been moved to the Phillipines WITHOUT contacting the authors and making them aware of what has happened in this company?
Poor communication with the athors who help pay these people's salaries with their purchases.
Thank you for your post. Unfortunately, I didn't read prior to sending them a little over $500. But I became suspicious when the emails and texts stop coming after I sent my "first installment ". I've even tried calling, texting and emailing "Kori Kilpatrick ", the person that was contacting me but to no avail.
