We Don’t Just Hand You a Published Novel – We Hand You a Stream of Income

Publishing like the big guys — but you keep 100% of your royalties.

Because publishing isn’t just about a product. It’s about profit.

See the Real Cost of Publishing

Most people think publishing can be done for $800. But when you add up editing, design, formatting, and marketing, the true cost can be up to $20,000+ for a well-positioned novel. Harbor & Stone gives you everything for one flat fee — and you keep 100% of your royalties.

Bonus Benefits of Working With Harbor & Stone Press

• Financial Security – One flat contract, no surprise invoices or royalty cuts.
• Simplicity – One contract, one payment, one project manager. No chasing multiple freelancers.

• Faster Timelines – With everyone aligned from day one, your release date stays on track.

Your Story – Your Royalties

What Makes Harbor & Stone Different

Most publishing companies keep a portion of your royalties — sometimes for years. At Harbor & Stone Press, we’re changing the game.

When your project is complete, we hand everything back to you: edited files, formatted editions, cover design, and distribution setup. That means no strings attached and no royalties tied up forever.

You own your book. You keep 100% of the profit. We simply make sure it’s polished, professional, and ready for readers everywhere.

Already Published? We’ve Got You Covered.

Not every author finds Harbor & Stone before their first launch — and that’s okay. Your book still deserves to be seen, shared, and sold.

That’s why we offer marketing-only packages designed specifically for authors who already have a published book but need help reaching readers.

Unlike freelance marketplaces or “big house” publishing, we don’t just throw together a few graphics and call it done. Our campaigns combine:

• Professional reels, posts, and carousels
• Engagement support to build real connections
• Press materials and PR pitching to media and podcasts
• Coaching and strategy so you know exactly how to grow momentum
• Access to bookstore and library shelves

Whether you published through another press, self-published, or went fully independent — Harbor & Stone is here to help you market like the big guys, without the royalty cuts.
