Shepherd King Publishing lives by its name –

Shepherding Christian authors through the complicated maze of publishing. Whether it’s publishing with a traditional house, or self-publishing, we’ve been through the gauntlet, and more than once. We’re here to help you tell your story. 

We’ll give honest feedback on your manuscript, provide editing, and shepherd you through the process. If your novel is outstanding, we may offer to become your publisher.

We’re young and hungry, so our fees are as affordable as you’ll find. But that will change. We simply know too much about the big picture of publishing to not offer our knowledge to first time authors.
