Riverhaven is setting out to redefine publishing. We have three different opportunities to assist authors with getting their books into the hands of readers. Our original model, Riverhaven Books, while not conventional in that our authors pay for our services, is also not a vanity press; not every work meets the standards of Riverhaven Books, but those that do are invited to have the Riverhaven imprint. This allows writers to maintain control over the number of books printed and the authors are responsible for that payment. In turn, Riverhaven does not take any of the profits from the sale of those books, and all books are available through our online store, as well as Kindle and Amazon should the author choose. It's a mutually beneficial relationship.
Another piece of Riverhaven is our ala carte services. Authors can determine which services they would like to utilize and maintain complete control. Titles published in this manner do not carry the Riverhaven name.
Our newest venture, Stream~Lines, is a traditional press. Authors pay nothing for the services, and Riverhaven retains a percentage of royalties. Query letters can be sent to Riverhaven, Query Department, 18 Pearl Street, Whitman, MA 02382.
No matter which route is best in your journey, we look forward to working with you. Hands-on is the philosophy of Riverhaven. Our attention to detail, while maintaining affordability, is what sets us apart.
