Traditional Publishing
Full-Service Publishing
Done Right.
You wrote the book. We take it from there. Editing, design, distribution, and launch handled by people who care about getting it right.
What We Offer
The Full Weight of a
Publishing House.
Traditional publishing at Mask Off means your manuscript gets the same level of attention a major house gives its flagship titles. Real editorial depth. Real design. A real distribution and marketing strategy built around your book.
The difference is that we stay in close contact with you the whole time. You will know exactly where your book is in the process, what decisions are being made, and why. No black holes. No radio silence.
Services
Everything Your Book Needs
Developmental Editing
We work with your manuscript at the structural level — story arc, pacing, character, voice, and theme. This is where good manuscripts become great ones.
Line & Copy Editing
Sentence-level refinement that preserves your voice while sharpening clarity, consistency, and flow. Every word earns its place.
Cover & Interior Design
Professional cover design that commands attention on shelves and screens. Interior layout formatted for print and digital distribution.
Distribution
ISBN registration, print-on-demand setup, and distribution to major retailers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Ingram, and independent bookstores.
Marketing & Publicity
Launch strategy, press kit development, advance reader copies, and ongoing promotional support to build readership and reviews.
Rights Management
We help you understand and protect your rights — print, digital, audio, foreign, and subsidiary — so your work keeps working for you.
The Process
From Acquisition to Shelves
Acquisition
We review your submission and, if it is a good fit, we extend an offer. We walk you through the contract in plain language. No surprises. No fine print designed to confuse.
Editorial Development
Your assigned editor works through the manuscript with you. Developmental pass first, then line editing, then copy editing and proofreading. This phase takes the time it needs to take.
Design and Production
Once the manuscript is locked, our design team builds the cover and interior. You have approval at every stage. We do not finalize anything without your sign-off.
Distribution Setup
We register your ISBN, set up your print and digital files, and push your book to our distribution network. Print-on-demand and digital storefronts worldwide.
Launch
Your launch is a coordinated event, not an afterthought. We build a timeline, coordinate advance copies, and execute a real marketing push around your release date.
Ongoing Support
Publication is not the end. It is the beginning. We continue to support your book with marketing, royalty reporting, and rights management long after launch day.
