      I had an amazing experience with Author's Tranquility Press, and I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to ************************* and ***********************, my consultants. Their expertise and prowess in the publishing industry were truly impressive. They guided me through every step with such professionalism and dedication that I felt safe and supported, a ***** contrast to previous experiences with other publishing companies that had eroded my trust.******* and *****'s attention to detail, industry knowledge, and marketing expertise were instrumental in making my book a success. They earned my trust back, and I am grateful for their guidance and support throughout the process. I highly recommend Author's Tranquility Press to any author looking for a publishing partner they can trust.

      My book was already published. What I needed was marketing strategies. Through conversations with ATP, I had the opportunity to do a podcast, and two other opportunities which I use for marketing. I'm pleased with the service that I received and services that are available. My experience with ATP has been professional and very helpful.*********************************, Ph.D.

      Hey everyone. I am a Doctor of Education and have been published multiple times both academically and creatively. I am looking out for you.Do not for one second give your hard earned money or precious time. I have been contacted by ATPs ******************* multiple times. She claims to want to help me "revive" my books but threatened that Amazon would remove my books if they do not have enough sales. I spoke with an Amazon representative, my hybrid publisher, and several fellow authors about this and it is simply not true. Amazon does not do this.There were many other falsifications with the over an hour long discussion back in November including a refusal to send me a detailed contract and wanting money first, no respect for my time even when I said I needed to go, and a play on my emotions about the death of my brother-in-law which her and I talked about because she asked me about the inspiration for my next book.Today, March 5th has been the most disheartening. She opened the conversation telling me her brother died last night. When I asked her why she is calling me and not with her family, she said she has not taken her leave yet. When I asked why, she had no answer. She then proceeded to talk over me about how Amazon was going to remove my books if they did not perform well. When I told her this was not true she argued by asking me who told me this. When I told her, she had nothing to say. When I called her a scammer she got upset and ended the call.If this review saves even one person from this negative experience, then it is review well spent writing. Many blessings fellow authors.

      Received a call from these people about my "book." I have 28 published books. Which book? They gave me the name of a specific book and told me it would soon be removed from Amazon because I have "no" sales! This is particularly hilarious since this book was recently featured on a BookBub ad and has had several thousand sales over the last couple of months! We got no further because I hung up on her!

      Authors Tranquility Press keeps leaving me messages about there being a problem with my book. I have now received three voicemails from them soliciting me to contact them although I have never heard of this company before looking them up to file this complaint. Im certainly not looking to hire them. Today's message was from someone named *****************************. He was warning me that if this problem isnt fixed that my book would be removed from Amazon. Since the book mentioned has already been removed from Amazon and every other book retailerI received my rights back from my publisher last yearthis is an empty threat, but it does come across like a threat. Writers and authors beware.

      They scammed me about a potential movie contract with photo shopped documents from ******** and Silverprint Pictures. I paid them $12,000 but after I became suspicious and sent the document to ******** for verification. They said it was not legitimate and they never do that for authors. I refer you to ******** Book, Publishing Fraud Alert, and ATP is at the top of the list. They will say they have fired the employee and may have started the contract but it is not, nor will it ever be fulfilled. I asked for a cancellation and refund early in 2023 a couple of months but was assured that the script was ongoing and the *** strike delayed it. I still requested my money back on 5 occasions and was promised at year end 2023 I would be refunded. Nothing has been refunded and they have stopped communicating with me. I plan to take them to small claims court.There have been other contracts with them that have only partially been fulfilled and a promise to place my republished book in bookstores was never done!

      This company has the most predatory and ridiculous sales practices I have ever heard of. *******************, one of their sales representatives has harrassed me for months despite repeated requests to be taken off their list. I have pointed out that I am on the "do not call list" and have gone so far as to file an FTC complaint against them. Yet, he keeps calling. He has basically dared me to find a way to get him in trouble and has engaged in retaliatory foul-mouthed retorts. It is amazing that they can get anyone to do business with them.

      Im actually confused because *** paid over $4500 dollars and after that *** left messages about my books and heard nothing through phone or email and now Im calling and leaving messages with *********************** and nothing. I was told that this was a waste of time and for three years shes been able to keep in contact with me to assure I paid everything and my daughter also tried to contact her after they had a few exchanges via text. I was also notified from someone from Amazon so he says in reference to a movie deal after being told I would hafto create my own trailer for the project..and also pay again. Im not sure if my copyrights are legit at this point and this all bad for business. Fortunately I had someone from lionsgate give me some advice. This is ridiculous. I also survive off of my ssa checks monthly and I have heart and kidney disease and currently Im homeless.. this is not good. I will not continue service in the future with the other 8 books Ive finished. Thanks in advance for the service and waste of time.

      Published a book with them, "The Mad Sailor of the North Atlantic." I gave them a clean manuscript. The version they published had 270 errors in it and read like someone with ESL third grade skills transcribed the book. They would not fix the book for six months, and finally reduced the errors to eight after a four hour editing marathon on the phone. The book still has the 8 errors they will not make right, so having the book published is still an embarrassment to me. They quit answering my phone calls and emails two years ago. This was my second self publisher for the book and both of them were a nightmare. These guys must do all the work off shore and have no interest in your finished product. I should have dug deeper before ever working with them.

      They emailed me for weeks before I answered the email. They offered me a "deal" and then, though God only knows how they got my phone number, they left a voicemail but I didn't answer. Thank you to the other reviewers posts because I was considering working with them.
