Abby Stahl is a fantastic literary midwife. Her attention to detail, knowledge of industry shifts, and flexibility have completely changed how I approach my work. She's patient, decisive, and genuinely invested in her authors' success. If you're serious about publishing, she's the partner you need."

I really enjoyed my experience with Palmetto Publishing. My publishing consultant, Roy, was very respectful and helpful in providing explanations about the various aspects of my package. He was able to put together a package that best suited me after our first talk and was able to ensure I received the book experience I wanted while remaining within my budget. I never felt pressured to buy what he was suggesting, and he was more than willing to tweak my package based on my feedback. My project manager, Natalie, was equally respectful and always responded to my questions within a week. She made sure I knew exactly what was needed from me at each stage of my publishing journey and alerted me as soon as a step was done on Palmetto's end. As soon as I had completed a step in the process--such as revising my cover design--Natalie was quick to let me know she had received my feedback and send that on to the respective designer for further changes or to solidify my design. I have full confidence that Palmetto was working their hardest and fastest during the process. I will note that the process took 3 months, which was the expected amount of time, and the low end of pricing starts at around $2500 to $3000. I personally felt that I received my money's worth, but I know that price may come as a shock to some people, so I thought I would mention that.

Incredible Support from Start to Finish
Working with Palmetto Publishing has been a great experience, especially as a first-time author. The process can feel overwhelming, but they made it smooth and manageable.
Julia McKenna was a huge part of that. She was there every step of the way—patient, helpful, and always willing to guide me when I needed it. I couldn’t have done this without her support.
I’m very thankful for the entire team and everything they’ve helped me accomplish.

Across the board, customer service was excellent! They were extremely responsive, and followed through on everything they promised. They made publishing stress-free and the quality of the book was great! Throughout the process, they provided the support I needed.

Being a first time author required guidance from the business aspects and the completion of my book. Both the project manager and the business advisor were great!

I have nothing but good things to say about Palmetto Publishing. They guided me through the process step-by-step and answered any questions I had immediately. Working with Olivia and Danyel made the process even better I would love to work with them again. Thank you for bringing my book to life!

What a wonderful company to work with! They were upfront with pricing and very communicative. As a first-time author, I had lots of questions, which they were happy to answer. I will definitely be publishing with them again in the future.

Very clear process and upfront pricing from the start. They did what they said they would do. My book turned out great, terrific cover that they created. It took me a few months between editing steps but they never forgot about me or where I was in the editing process.

Lilly and Abby were a delight to work with and very enthusiastic throughout the process. We have published 2 books with them and plan to publish two more in the near future. It has felt like a true partnership every step of the way. Look forward to more collaborations with them. We stopped by the office and were pleased to see many young, creative minds at work.

I worked with Abby S throughout the process of getting my manuscript published into a book/journal. She was extremely helpful throughout the whole process and I'm so grateful Palmetto Publishing is who I decided to go with. I met with 4 publishing agencies before deciding on Palmetto and I truly believe God led me to choosing Palmetto and I couldn't be happier with how my book turned out! Looking forward to having my book hit the market and hoping with my book many lives will be transformed like mine was! Palmetto Publishing is a wonderful agency and I highly recommend.
P.S. This was my first time publishing and it was an amazing experience!

From the first moment I contacted Palmetto I felt I was in a very professional company. I had had a bad experience in my first publishing venture. But Palmetto was very different. My experience from day one, was that the Palmetto people were here to help me be successful. Each person I worked with went above and beyond to answer my questions and to guide me through the publishing process. I will continue using Palmetto for my future publishing needs. I believe they are an ethical company, rare in this self publishing industry.

I enjoyed working with the Palmetto Publishing staff, very competent and hi-tech people. My book project was handled expeditiously, and I had my late husband's book published in six months. All those who have seen the book are impressed! Thank you, Palmetto Publishing.

From my first encounter with my publishing consultant Reeves to my project manager Olivia and all those behind the scenes, they demonstrated positivity, patience, professionalism and helped me to create a beautiful children’s book.it is my first book and I will be using them to publish my series of books. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I have had a wonderful journey as a first time author. I had three of my books published through Palmetto! The active support and encouragement that I have received from each and everyone of the publishing team and social media team has made my journey as a self-publisher very memorable. Thank you Nicole, Brenna, Emily, Mary, and Tessa.
Warm regards……..Kaberi.
