Publishing/About-Us

HiddenEgo® Publishing are a small, independent publisher.  We are not a vanity publishing service and we do not publish works that we feel are not of an acceptable standard.  HiddenEgo® has only one aim:

"To help ordinary people with extraordinary lives, publish their story."

HiddenEgo® was set up by Stephen Francis, author of "Reconstructing Stephen", an autobiographical work telling the bizarre story of his adoption.

HiddenEgo® provides the following services:

  • Reading of submitted works and review with a view to establishing acceptance for publishing.
  • Finding an editor, estimates for editing.
  • Finding a ghost writer where necessary.
  • Procurement of copy editing, proof reading and necessary structural editing.
  • Design of cover artwork.
  • Writing of marketing material and coordination of marketing campaign including design, development and hosting of websites/provision of email and blog services.
  • Printing of proofs for approval.
  • Procurement of ISBN and submission of works to the British Library.
  • Printing of works and procurement of global distribution.
  • Writing of press releases and general promotion of your book.

HiddenEgo® charge only what we are charged for getting your book into print. Thereafter we charge a small commission against each sale. You keep the bulk of your commission as author of the work.
