A Positive Experience

From my first phone call, I was impressed by the polite, friendly voice (John) which explained how White Magic Studios (WMS) help authors to self publish their work. All my questions were answered in full and it did not take long for me to decide on this form of publishing.

Once the process was underway, I also had email and phone discussions with Vrinda and John. I can honestly say I was impressed by their courtesy, helpfulness and friendliness in all my contacts. I was allowed to view my work and make comments/alterations throughout the process. Consequently, I was delighted with every aspect of the finished book which included its cover (designed by my grand-daughter), layout and letterings. I have no hesitation in recommending WMS to anyone who wishes to self publish.

I am 75 and a first time author, I knew nothing about the process. White Magic Studios were the perfect people to produce my book. They took me through it stage by stage. Because I knew so little, I gave poor Vrinda a few headaches, sorry, which she dealt politely and professionally. My book is beautiful and is selling better than I could ever hope for. I will be sending them my second book shortly and look forward to working with Vrinda and John again.

A Little Bit o' Magic

Very efficient and prompt service. Delighted with the design cover and layout and my first fictional novel, A Little Bit o' Magic. My only slight disappointment was the unit printing cost per book, which was more expensive than previous quotes I had been given.

Against this, the fees for publication were highly competitive. All in all, very satisfied and would definitely recommend.

Many thanks to Vrinda and John for all their efforts and all the best for the future.

White Magic Studios are a Must visit site for all writers and artists.

I found it quite straightforward to prepare the manuscript for my book but the process of formatting it into book form requires a high degree of technical skill. At this point, I contacted White Magic Studios for professional help and for a small fee they agreed to format my manuscript and they even found a platform to sell it from on a global scale! Working with the White Magic Studio staff has been a pleasure throughout the stage-by-stage process. At each stage, good advice was given to carefully build the book step by step towards ultimate perfection. My book has been in the making for over 40 years. Thank you W.M.S. for turning a dream into vivid reality!

Professional, friendly and respectful

I was very impressed with the services that White Magic Studios offer. They have distributed my novel to all major libraries and bookstores as well as online, and set up an author website, book trailer and so much more.

They have dealt with all aspects of the process very professionally and only proceeded after seeking my approval - they gave me full control throughout.

Vrinda and Ronald were both very friendly and helpful. They were informative and keen to answer any of my questions.

I would gladly recommend White Magic Studios to any authors as they have been outstanding.

Superb result to a difficult task

I contracted White Magic to design 3 new book covers for 3 of my 8 novels. A quote, timescale and questionnaires setting out the parameters agreed. First drafts were complete within a few days and all requests for changes, most of which were my requests additional to my original concept, were completed quickly and efficiently by WM. I now have 3 new covers which embody the theme of the novels' content and look excellent. Keith Wells
