As independent publishing has grown, so has the need for trusted, professional design and guidance. In response, I envisioned a service-centered hub for authors—whether traditional, hybrid, or self-publishing.​ That vision became Ebookannie on April 10, 2008.

​

From the beginning, the goal was simple: surround authors with skilled professionals who care deeply about presenting their stories with excellence. To support this, we created Publishing Made Simple: Book Publishing Phases, a practical guide answering the most common questions:

• How do I publish a book?

• Where do I begin?

• What does the process look like?

• What will it cost?

 

Like many in this space, I didn’t walk this journey alone.​ Joanna Penn, award-winning author and founder of The Creative Penn, became a quiet but powerful influence through her teaching and transparency. Her work has helped millions of authors—including me—navigate the path forward.​Joel Friedlander, founder of The Book Designer, has also been a significant voice and mentor in elevating the standards and perception of self-publishing authors worldwide. He sadly passed away in 2021, and I am committed to continuing his legacy with others.

​

Their impact helped shape my approach—one rooted in service, excellence, and respect for every author’s story. 

 

At Ebookannie, we understand that publishing can feel overwhelming—especially in the beginning. That’s why we provide clear guidance, steady support, and professional services including editing, cover design, interior formatting, coaching, and marketing direction.

 

No question is too small.
No story is insignificant.

 

Publishing today offers incredible opportunities. A single book can open doors to courses, speaking, small groups, online platforms, podcasts, and more. Whether fiction, non-fiction, poetry, or children’s books—your message matters.

 

This is your time.

Create something meaningful.
Share your story.
Publish your book—your way.
