    FriesenPress has made my first time publishing a most positive experience.
    My project specialist was always quick to respond to any of my questions, in a welcoming manner. The guidance my specialist offered was very much appreciated, and helped me to get my novel across the finish-line. Thanks Nicole, for being part of this bucket-list journey.
    As a Canadian author, I was also very pleased to be able to work with a Canadian publisher.

    As a neophyte author looking to publish his first novel, I was greatly pleased with the transparency, patience and professionalism of the advisors, editors and publicity folks at Friesen Press. Their design and editing staff were particularly helpful in guiding a rookie through the complicated process of publishing.

    Their team is knowledgeable and very helpful in achieving your goal. They can answer any of your questions and concerns. For anyone wishing to publish a novel, stop wasting your time attempting to deal with traditional publishing firms. Self publishing with Friesen Press was a great experience.

    I didn’t know what to expect when I submitted my first book to FriesenPress. I was so nervous! The sales team was so helpful and encouraging. The editorial team was professional and knowledgeable, and helped me form my scattered thoughts into a story. Then to have a publishing team as patient, kind, and compassionate as I found, beyond compare. I now have a book I’m proud of, and am working on my second, to be submitted soon back with Friesen! I can’t wait! A big thanks to all members of Friesen who so patiently helped me through the self publishing process.

    I recently completed the long process of publishing my first book with FriesenPress. This company retains a range of excellent professionals to support authors through this process and maximize the benefits, making it a very positive experience. Their people are their greatest assets in my opinion, with a very personal and sincere approach to business that made me feel very valued and that I was working with a motivated team that truly cared about my project and genuinely wanted to see me and my book succeed and be the best that it could be. They offer a range of service packages to fit any writer from new beginner to veteran, and with any budget. I had marketing and promotion support included for a very reasonable which exceed my needs and taught me many transferrable skills that I will be able to apply elsewhere in the future. Overall this was a hugely positive learning experience and I will always cherish my interactions with their staff. Many thanks to FriesenPress for making this emotional process so rewarding and successful. * ****** ********* ***** ******** ** *********

    Since 2017, I have self published four books using FriesenPress. Each time I have been through their process I have noticed the changes and improvements this company has incorporated to make their publication procedures more robust. It is great to see how this company strives to continually improve its methodology. I also enjoy the Publishing Insights they post on Facebook. I belong to a Writers’ Group with about fifty members, and I share many of the posts with the group.

    I am so grateful for Friesen Press's insights and guidance when writing my book!
    My objective for writing this book was for my family and, with the Friesen Press publishing team's assistance I couldn't be more pleased with the product and the outcome.
    This was my first attempt at writing a book and Hemingway I am not. The Friesen Press publishing team assisted me with the flow of the book, advice on improving it's content and creating a wonderful looking product that one could be proud of and a lasting legacy for my family and friends.
