PUblishing Radical Works of Inspiration

Rise Books offers full editorial, coaching, and ghostwriting services depending on the needs of our authors. After an initial consultation, we will help you determine what level of support you need, and connect you with a writer or editor who can bring your vision to life. Once you have produced a final draft, we work with Neuwirth Productions to design and develop either a paperback or hardcover version of your book. As part of our production services, Rise Books oversees cover design, interior design, advanced readers copies, as well as the copyedits and succeeding passes of your book, as we take it from manuscript to publication.

Rise Books is a rare hybrid that makes publicity and marketing a standard support in every book we publish. Once authors have completed their final draft, they begin working with our Director of Marketing + Publicity to craft their marketing strategy, begin networking with their media contacts, and start outreach to local, national, and digital media networks. Once the publication date approaches, Rise Books helps authors begin to implement their book release publicity, including scheduling tour dates, booking media, podcasts, and other outlets, and supporting authors through publication and beyond.

Rise Books has a prestigious sales and distribution deal with Simon & Schuster, offering national distribution across all retailers, including Barnes & Noble, Amazon, speciality shops, independent booksellers, and Canadian retailers. Ascend works directly with sales reps in all retail markets to pitch our authors and their books, driving pre-sales and visibility within the book publishing industry. In addition, Rise Books offers access to subsidiary sales support, including but not limited to e-books, audiobooks, foreign rights, and TV & film development. Rise Books is a unique publisher, offering the services and supports of a traditional publisher in a hybrid package.
