"But platform doesn’t have to be a full-time job, and you don’t have to rack up numbers like an influencer."

Must-read for authors.

We best create an audience of readers by publishing our work, carrying out projects we care about, and making personal connections.

Are you seeking a publishing option to help you through the production process? With one of our packages, we do all the production work, but teach you the process for future books. With that package, you'll retain 100% of the royalties and can order books at cost.

With our summer sale, you'll save $500, and get our marketing package for free! Email now so we can determine if we're a good fit for each other.

(We also offer a package where we do all the work, so you can just keep writing!)

A la carte services available as well: manuscript critiques, editing, book cover design, book coaching or consulting, and more.

TMP Books is pleased to announce our summer sale!
From now through July 15, 2024, all new clients will receive $500 off the purchase of either of our publishing packages AND a FREE Marketing Package (regularly $499).

Send Tracy an email now to discuss your project: [email protected]

If you are a current client, please email for a custom sale price.

We offer referral fees when someone you refer purchases our services, so if you know anyone seeking a publisher, or needing any of our a la carte services (editing, critiques, cover design, etc.), I would appreciate your recommendation.
Thanks for sharing!

Happy Birthday, TMP BOOKS!

Today, we celebrate 10 years since launching our hybrid press.

In those 10 years, we’ve published 100 books for clients under the TMP imprint, and close to 100 more under the imprints of other clients. I’m incredibly proud of all our books, and even more proud of all the authors of those books.

Authors, thank you for sharing your hard stories so that others know they’re not alone. Thank you for sharing your fun stories for children, teaching faith, values, cultures, imagination, creativity. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise. Thank you for sharing your creative works to encourage others, to help them dream, to help them grow their faith, to help them know of God’s unfailing love for us all. Thank you for using your talents to touch hearts and change lives.

Thank YOU for giving me, Tracy, the opportunity to be part of your journey. I’m honored and humbled that God has called me to this role, and pray that He will continue to use us all for His glory.

Here’s to all of you, and here’s to the future of TMP!
