Expand your literary horizons at Aminia Books and Publishing.
We are so pleased that you trust us to publish your work. However, we want you to understand that Aminia Books and Publishing cannot guarantee your book sales! If someone else informs you that they can promise high or a certain percentage of book sales...RUN! It just does not happen that way! We are not publicist, or agents.

We Will provide you with all the tools as well as provide our clients with valuble information.
ONLY YOU CAN PROMOTE YOU! If you are up and out promoting your work, then you will see the results in the end. No work equals no results! Please feel free to apply these words to your vocabulary and we promise that you will see results.
Words to live by:
Trust Jesus-Trust in some type of higher power! Luck does NOT work in this industry, I don't care who you know and what they say! Getting there is only half the task, staying ON TOP is the hardest job EVER!
Faith- All things are possible when you trust and believe in which you cannot see.
Budget- Prepare your budget now. Printing fees, websites, seminars, business cards and so-forth.
No room for doubt- Doubt blocks!
Circle yourself around the positive only- Surround yourself around others that are chasing dreams as well. They will be able to share your passion, as well as relate to some ups and downs you may experience on your move up!
No! It simply means not today! Keep trying, don't give up!
Hussle- Sleep, eat and LIVE your dream!!! Continuously work on getting the word and your product out!
Shameless promotion-Beauty salons, grocery stores, flea markets, car washes, shopping malls, colleges,the post office, and the list goes on! You have to be everywhere with your product! That is the only way you will be noticed.
Dedication- You have to make time for what is important!
Persistance- Keep on moving along. The greatest were turned down at one point in their career. You are NO exception.
Low Ego!-Some people confuse EGOS and CONFIDENCE! Be confident in your product as well as yourself, but be humble in your showmanship! People know goodness when they see it!
Keep it real!- Write about things in which you are comfortable and things you can relate to.
Network- You must mingle and interact with others. This is how connections are made. This is how deals happen as well!
Learn your craft!- There are millions of publishing manuals to help you learn about the literary/publishing industry. I highly recommend the manuals by, Dan Poynter and Jeff Herman. They are the best self-publishing manuals out there!
Don't be cheap when it comes to you!-PAY for advertisements and have a great marketing strategy!Don't try to seek what you need for nothing! If your book means everything to you, please do whatever necessary (within your means!) to make your book a sucess!
