What Our Authors are Saying
Working with The Happy Self-Publisher, Ms. Lois Hoffman, continues to produce excellent results. As soon as I was ready to publish my second book, I immediately contacted Lois and within a short period of time all reviews were successfully completed and my book was published. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND all authors to reach out to Lois, the outcome will be spectacular! My sincere appreciation to Lois – THANK YOU
Lois Hoffman, The Happy Self-Publisher, was incredibly helpful in preparing my book for publication. The many aspects involved in formatting, editing, and cover design can be intimidating so it was great to work with someone so knowledgeable about all these details. Her assistance enabled me to get my novel out in a timely manner. She was thorough, patient, and attentive to every detail, all while providing encouragement and prompt responses to my many questions. I would certainly recommend Lois to other writers who want to embrace self-publication without fear.
Lois Hoffman, you were such a joy to work with on Blue’s River! Your patience, knowledge, support and creativity were limitless! I really appreciated your openness in communication, and your skill in guiding this book to fruition. You juggled your attention between me and my illustrator expertly – which makes sense given your other job! The final creation is a beautiful work of art, and I could not be more grateful to the Happy Self-Publisher!
