As a first-time author, I never understood the process of publishing until Delilah and Gary brought it to my attention through their saintly patience and remarkable understanding—explaining how important it was not to rush the process. Ben, Delilah, and Gary have been nothing but angels in the way they handled my anxiety, eagerness, and the publishing process. I truly appreciate how their professionalism, kindness, ideas, and hard work made my first book go live and helped me become a published author. I do not know if I would have found a better publisher, but they definitely are going to be my publisher moving forward, and I wish Prime Publishing Studio the very best and hope they grow to become one of the best publishers in the world for having all the knowledge, resources, and, most of all, great employees. If anyone is looking for a publisher, I would highly recommend Prime Publishing Studio because I know they are well worth your time and money. These are not just mere words but my own experience with them. If you choose them, they will do everything to make you successful. I thank them with all my heart for everything they have done for me and for everything they will continue doing for me in the future. Thank you, Gary, Deliah, and Ben.

I dealt with Mr. Ben Mark
I dealt with Mr. Ben Mark and his team. Excellent teamwork, with artwork on the cover, editing, quick responses every time, and clearly presented packages to choose from. There was a personal touch to every message I received, making me feel respected and heard. I have told everyone who would like to write a book and self-publish about Prime Publishing Studio.

A Wonderful and Supportive Publishing Experience
I had a wonderful experience working with my publisher. Dushane spoke with gentleness, listened carefully, and addressed my concerns in a way that made me feel heard and supported throughout the process. I also truly appreciate how he brought my book cover to life. Dushane captured the vision I had in mind and turned it into something beautiful and meaningful. I am grateful for Dushane’s and Richard’s patience, professionalism, and care, and I would gladly recommend them to other authors.

I am an 82 year old first time author, with a manuscript that took me 30 years to complete. I had no idea if it was worth pursuing and it would not be where it is today without the direct input of Prime Publishing. It started with Teagan who made me feel so welcome and gave me so much encouragement to continue the task. She convinced me to work with her company and gave such positive feedback to the first two chapters that I decided to move forward. Then Zayn and his crew took me by the hand and guided me to finish what I started. This book is so much better than what they had to work with; the improvements were amazing and yet it retained all my stories and allowed my voice and storytelling style to remain intact. The final product far exceeded my expectations and it's all because of the talent, caring and compassion of Zayn and Prime Publishing. Thank you for everything and all I can say is "Are you kidding me?"
I was privately dismayed when they assigned me a junior editor I'd assumed my project warranted someone senior. She was excellent. Sharp instincts fewer defaults from experience more willingness to ask why. By the end I was recommending her to writer friends. Turns out I had the wrong instinct about seniority.
Mixed feelings here. The copyediting was meticulous and the print quality is excellent. But the marketing plan I was promised in our early calls didn't really materialize in the form I expected. I'd still recommend them for production and editing just go in with realistic expectations about post-launch support.

If I could give a zero
If I could give a zero, I would. They just took my book and put the words in AI and gave me the illustrations. They were ok, but not terrific or wow. Just ok. Then the placement of the words were awful and they didn't care. Strongly don't recommend.
Wrote the fantasy I wanted to read and could not find anywhere. My editor helped me write it better than I could have alone. Readers who wanted the same thing found it and their gratitude is the most meaningful professional response I have ever received.
Warm. Magical. Gentle. Everything cozy fantasy should be. My editor loved the genre as a reader and that love showed in every note. The community that found the book has been one of the loveliest surprises of my entire writing life.
Clean process. Fair terms. The editing improved the manuscript meaningfully. Distribution into financial services networks was handled with real industry knowledge. Would publish with them again.

Raised two kids alone and wrote this book in the spaces between everything else. School pickups, homework sessions, weekend football matches, grocery runs. The book got written in twenty minute windows and somehow holds together as a complete thing. My editor said the urgency shows in the prose in the best possible way. Turns out stolen time produces its own particular kind of energy on the page.

Spent twenty years as a journalist being professionally skeptical of everything. Applied that same skepticism to every stage of the publishing process. Found almost nothing to be skeptical about which was genuinely disorienting. Good contracts, transparent communication, honest timelines. Either publishing has improved significantly or I found the right house first try. Willing to admit it might be the latter.

I've been writing YA fantasy since I…
I've been writing YA fantasy since I was sixteen and submitting to publishers since I was twenty-two. That's six years of rejections, near-misses, and one truly awful experience with a vanity press that I don't even want to get into. So when I say Prime Publishing Studio restored my faith in the process, I mean it in the most literal way possible. They got the genre. They got the audience. My editor had actual opinions about world-building and pacing that pushed the book into a completely different league.
Thanks Prime Publishing Studio

great quality of work
great quality of work, very detail-oriented, awesome customer service and project management! I'm so lucky I found them and published my first book. They are the best I can imagine.
My experience was decent, especially for a first-time author. They guided me through the basics of publishing, which helped because I had no idea how ISBNs or distribution worked. Some services felt a bit generic, but the support team answered questions patiently. Not perfect, but helpful if you need structure.
As an author, handing over your work can be stressful, but this team handled my project with care. The editors respected my writing style while improving clarity and structure. They didn’t over-edit or strip away personality, which is something I’ve experienced elsewhere.
The marketing side was more about direction than pressure. Instead of pushing expensive add-ons, they helped me understand what would actually benefit my book. That honesty made the experience feel trustworthy and author-friendly.
The cover design came out better than I hoped. I only gave a rough idea, and they somehow turned it into something that actually fits the book. I've gotten a few compliments on it already.
Great service overall. I would especially like to thank my agent, Ms. Sophia Brown, for her diligence and helpfulness. Thank you for the excellent service.
I was trying to self-publish a book and for some reason, this service was what showed up first when I Googled Amazon Publishing. Although no one on their team said they were associated with Amazon, I assumed that they were because "Prime" is in their name and they use a logo very similar to the Amazon logo for their email signature.
Their service is to help authors get their book ready to be loaded onto KDP. Amazon will never charge you if you upload the book yourself. I was charged ~$300 and was solicited twice for upsells that ranged from $800-$2,000.
They did work to prepare my book for publishing, including making edits (which I caught- not their publishing team) and creating a cover. I put a stop to the process when they asked for my Amazon sign-in information and OTP code. I was afraid my personal information and account were at risk.
I have since taken my manuscript, made the necessary adjustments, and loaded it onto KDP (for free). It wasn't that hard and they didn't try to upsell me on other services.
When I posted this review, I was contacted within 24 hours by their lawyer, threatening to report me to the Attorney General for defamation. I received a 2nd threat just hours after the first one when I revised my review to be more objective.
One can't help but wonder if other reviewers have had a similar experience and pulled their reviews down out of fear.

My experience with Prime Publishing Studio
My experience with Prime Publishing Studio as a first-time children’s book author has been very disappointing. I joined with great excitement, but after four months, it became clear this was not the right company for my project.
I purchased their Gold Illustration Package, which included 25 illustrations, unlimited revisions, and a dedicated project manager. Throughout the process, I had to request many changes to the illustrations because the characters and artwork were inconsistent. These problems seemed to come from different illustrators working on the project, and it often took multiple follow-ups to get anything corrected. Although some revisions were completed, many were only partially addressed. In several cases, a few items were corrected, while others with the same issues remained unchanged, requiring me to request the same corrections again. New inconsistencies would also appear later, which I had to follow up on multiple times. At no point during the process was I informed that approving a draft meant revisions could no longer be requested, especially given that my plan included unlimited revisions.
Even though I explained the layout I wanted for the book early in the process, the same issues persisted. I asked several times to speak with a manager and even suggested having a single illustrator assigned so the artwork could remain consistent. When I finally spoke with a manager in mid-October and explained my concerns, I felt as if I were being blamed for the delays simply because I wanted the book done correctly. We were unable to agree on a path forward, and my project was closed. I was told that the company had fulfilled its obligation by providing a draft flip book, even though the book was far from finished.
This has been a very discouraging experience as a new author. I am sharing my story in hopes that the company will improve communication, quality control, and support for new writers.
Based on my experience, I would not recommend this company to first-time writers or publishers who expect expert guidance or quality results. I hope my experience encourages other new authors to ask for clear timelines, consistent communication, and transparent processes before investing.
