At Davis Creative Publishing, we understand your journey because we've walked it ourselves.

This allows you to access the professionalism of traditional publishing yet receive the higher royalties found with DIY. As your Ghost Publisher, we help you navigate the uncertain, confusing publishing industry, ultimately helping you make the best decisions for you and your book.

- Assert ownership of your work and demand a buyback.
- Push unnecessary purchases and hidden fees.
- Limit distribution to their website or Amazon, ignoring other platforms.
- Dictate the look and feel of your book, disregarding your brand.
- Sell what benefits them, not you, hidden in the fine print.
- Force bulk purchases with unnecessary mark-ups.
