TightWriters is a new generation book publisher and international online book store that ONLY publishes and sells books by new, unknown or self-published authors. TightWriters’ main goal is to discover new authors or writers. So the last thing we want to do is present you with the same old obstacles you face via the traditional publishing route.

Read on and learn about our seven 100% iron-clad GUARANTEES to you as a new, unknown or self-published author and how these powerful guarantees will benefit you tremendously when you publish with TightWriters!
 

100% GUARANTEE #1 : No Rejections

 
TightWriters’ main goal is to discover new authors. We can’t possibly discover new authors fast by simply rejecting 95% of manuscripts that come our way! So we decided to turn the publishing industry norm around – we adopt a 100% rejection-free policy (unless of course your manuscript is of publicly offensive material!). Yes, no stuffy rejections. This means that you are 100% guaranteed to see your book in print (or in e-book form if you wish). Think about it, the exhilaration of holding a copy of your own book, with your own name in the front sporting a professionally designed cover that rivals the 200,000 other new titles released internationally every year! Not only that, your book is made available for purchase by anyone around the world! Oh, and we’re friendly too because we know you need not only guidance through the entire publishing process but also encouragement all along the way!
 
TightWriters seemed to have done their homework so I thought it best to give them a shot. I loved the consistent feedback and encouragement, especially given the book's unexpectedly slow start. I haven't given up on it, and I'm relieved you haven't ... yet ... either.

- Daniel K. Munroe, author of non-stop action-packed muscle car adventure, Super Duty
 
 

100% GUARANTEE #2 : Your Book Published and Available for Sale in 30 Days

 
Your book will be ready for sale to anyone AROUND THE WORLD in 30 days. Yes, that includes book layout, cover design, printing, ISBN barcoding and making it readily available for purchase by your friends, family and the rest of the world. Think about it, 30 mere days compared to what could be years with a traditional publisher. It’s the publishing process on steroids! And you get to benefit from it because your book will be on sale faster than you can say “Mom, my book’s on sale!”
 
The best thing about TightWriters was the speed of publication from submission to printing.
 
- Matt Gers, author of a thought-provoking novel based on a young doctor’s journey through life and death, Descent
 
 
 

100% GUARANTEE #3 : No Competition from Established Authors

 
At TightWriters, we are ONLY interested in new, young or aspiring authors. If J.K. Rowling would come to us one day and asked if we would publish her book, our answer would be, “No thanks, but we’d be very happy to interview you!”. Why? Because she’s an established celebrity author, and she is not the kind of author we are serving. We are in the business of discovering new authors such as yourself and making your dream of publishing and selling your book a reality. Think about it. Your manuscript given total, undivided and unbridled attention. No distractions from the established authors.
 
 

100% GUARANTEE #4 : No Competition in Book Store

 
TightWriters’s online book store ONLY sells books written by new, unknown or self-published authors; or books that are unique and not the norm in traditional book stores. We don’t sell the typical bestsellers you see in the Top 10 lists of every book store – tens of thousands of book stores already do that. What good will that do you? Yes, you won’t see a single copy of Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Kite Runner, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood and so on in our online book store. What you WILL see are books by new authors and self-published authors such as yourself; or books that are different or unique in nature. Think about it. Your book, given total, undivided and unbridled attention. No distractions. Just your book and the book store.
 
  

100% GUARANTEE #5 : You're in Full Control of Your Story, Style And Genre

 
TightWriters is a different kind of publisher (if you haven’t figured that out already) in that we won’t cramp your style. You put your style, flair, genre, plot, knowledge, whatever into your book. We bother you not. What we are interested in is to make the book you’ve written appealing to as wide a market as possible through book layout, professional cover design and an online book store dedicated to new, unknown or self-published authors. Of course, this means you do need to ensure that your friends, family and colleagues (also known as your best fans) already have rave reviews of your writing, and your manuscript is free of bad plot, grammar, spelling, etc.
 
 

100% GUARANTEE #6 : Good Author Commission Percentage for You

 
TightWriters offer 15% author commission. We have lower overhead costs, so we could pass the money straight back to our authors. You feel good, and we feel good because we give you what you deserve.
 
 

100% GUARANTEE #7 : Your Book Cover will Rival that of any Bestseller

 
We at TightWriters have spent a vast amount of time analysing hundreds of modern book covers. We have also visited many bricks-and-mortar bookshops to see how books are laid out on the shelf, what kinds of book covers seem to draw customer attention at retail level and what the covers of bestsellers look like. Besides, you’ve spent days, weeks, months or even years writing your manuscript – do you want an amateur-looking book cover to reduce the potential of all your hard work? Of course not!

That’s not to say we think we know best. Actually, you do. The TightWriters publishing system also ensures that your book sports the best cover design by getting feedback and some creative input from you. Combining of your inner knowledge of your book with our expertise in cover design, you can expect that the final book cover will be putting its best foot (or should we say, face) forward into the world of readers out there.

The cover design displayed on the webpage looked professional and Jin's comment about the books arriving with good packaging to protect branding interests helped a lot.

- Matt Gers, author of a thought-provoking novel based on a young doctor’s journey through modern times, Descent
 

P.S. We love Traditional Publishers – we just don’t want to become one!

 
Don’t’ get us wrong, we think traditional publishers have done great favours to authors – but only to a small handful of elite authors. We’ve already mentioned some of their names – J.K. Rowling, J.R.R. Tolkien, Stephen King, John Grisham, Dan Brown, Rebecca Wells, etc. But remember, these are just a handful. There is the other up to 95% of other authors who have received undue rejections for their manuscript. What favours have they done these authors? There are bound to be thousands of great authors who have been missed in the bureaucratic and political process of book publishing.
 
Besides, think about this. If traditional publishers were accurate in their manuscript selection all the time, wouldn’t ALL their books sell like Harry Potter? Rather, for every Harry Potter published, there are thousands of titles nobody has heard of, published by the same traditional publishers! That means that it doesn’t matter who you publish with, rather, all that matters is that you get your book published! A well produced copy of your book is a much better promotional tool than a manuscript in Microsoft Word!

Are we saying you shouldn’t sign big deals with traditional publishers? Not at all! They have strong distribution and presence in bricks-and-mortar book stores – if you can get your foot in the door. And that is what a published book can be – your foot in the door. Don’t you think you’d up your chance (just a little) with a hot little published book bearing your name on it?
 
Let’s do a quiz. I’ll name a few authors, and you tell me if you know them. Are you ready? Here goes: Christopher Paolini, Rick Warren, Richard Nelson Bolles, John Grisham. Want some clues? OK, how about Eragon, The Purpose Driven Life, What Color Is Your Parachute?, The Firm. And you know what? All of them started off with either publishing with small publishing companies first, selling them through various avenues (I’m sure some of them would’ve opted for online book stores if they existed during the time) or self-publishing. Actually, Richard Nelson Bolles still publishes his multi-million bestseller with what used to be a small (but not anymore thanks to the great success of his book) publisher called Ten Speed Press!

What we are saying is this. DON’T make traditional publishers your main goal. Your main goal should be to put your thoughts on paper, publish them in book form and sell them in as short a time as possible! And what better way to do that than to publish your book through TightWriters and sell your books on the Internet, where literally tens of thousands of people are specifically searching for books such as yours?


What does it Cost?


It's simple, there are two options available to you:

OPTION 1: Pay Nothing Upfront


Although nothing as rich as Option 2, with this option you pay nothing upfront.  So it costs you nothing.  No catches.

Once your book is published and ready, we put it up on our website for sale to anyone around the world.

However, we will only print your book after the first 20 books are pre-ordered. Therefore, to see your book in print, you need to ensure you have about 20 people who are ready to buy your book.

After the first 20 books are pre-sold, you can buy your book at a great discounted author pricing.

After the first 40 books are sold, you start earning author commissions.

But before you decide, have a look at Option 2 below,  which you can profit THREE TIMES more per book sold by yourself!


OPTION 2: Pay Something Upfront... but PROFIT MUCH MORE!


With this option, you get to make much more (THREE TIMES more that is!) money on each book sold, plus get 5 free hard copies of your book upfront.

We charge a NZD$899 publishing package fee. This covers:
+ ISBN Registration
+ Barcode
+ National Library of New Zealand Registration copies
+ Copies of Your Book sent for National Library of New Zealand archives
+ Pre-press Setup
+ Book Production
+ Online Payment Gateway Setup
+ Your Book Made Available for Sale to Anyone Internationally
+ Professional Cover Design
+ FREE 5 copies of Your Book
+ 30% Author Discount off RRP for Books Authored by You
+ 15% Author Commissions based on Sell Price of Your Book
+ Book Printed Immediately (no waiting until 20 RRP copies pre-ordered before printing)
+ Inclusion of Keywords for Google on Book URL (webpage)
+ Inclusion of Book into the Google Book Search Programme
+ E-book Version of Book Made Available for Sale (upon request)

With Option 2, your book gets printed IMMEDIATELY - unlike Option 1 above, there is no need to wait for 20 copies to be pre-ordered before we print.

You will also get 5 FREE copies of your book.

You are eligible to buy your book at a 30% discount off RRP vs. 10% in Option 1 above. This means profit per book sold by yourself will TRIPLE that of Option 1.

You also start earning commissions (15% vs. Option 1's 10%) from the very first book sold at RRP.

PLUS, you also get $597 worth of extra TightWriters services over Option #1 like Google Book Search program and Google Keywords inclusions!

So your benefits of Option 2 over Option 1 are:
1) Your book gets printed immediately
2) You get 5 FREE copies of your book upfront
3) You profit 3x more from books you sell yourself due to the much higher 30% discounted author pricing (compared to 10% in Option #1)
4) You start earning author commissions from book #1
5) Your commission is 15% vs. 10% in Option #1
6) Get $597 worth of extra TightWriters services over Option #1 like Google Book Search program and Google Keywords inclusions.


Which Option Suits Best?


To make it easier for you, here's a table summarising the key differences between Option 1 and 2:

Description Option 1 (Free) Option 2 ($899)
ISBN Registration YES YES
Barcode YES YES
National Library of New Zealand Registration copies YES YES
Copies of Your Book sent for National Library of New Zealand archives YES YES
Pre-press Setup YES YES
Book Production YES YES
Online Payment Gateway Setup YES YES
Your Book Made Available for Sale to Anyone Internationally YES YES
Professional Cover Design YES YES
FREE 5 copies of Your Book No YES
30% Author Discount off RRP for Books Authored by You 10% discount only YES
15% Author Commissions based on Sell Price of Your Book 10% commission only YES
Book Printed Immediately (no waiting until 20 RRP copies pre-ordered before printing) No YES
Inclusion of Keywords for Google on Book URL (webpage) Optional extra $99 YES
Inclusion of Book into the Google Book Search Programme Optional extra $299 YES
E-book Version of Book Made Available for Sale (upon request) Optional extra $199 YES


If all you want to do is get your book published but don't plan to promote or sell any of your own books; you don't want to spend any money upfront or you want to just let your book tick along very slowly, pick Option #1.
 
If you plan to work hard to promote and market your own book and get a THREE TIMES the profit of Option 1, then pick Option #2.

We were surprised by the number of authors who demanded for Option #2 when we used to only have Option #1!
