Do I receive a volume discount when I order multiple copies of my book?

Yes. When you order multiple copies of the same book at the same time you will receive the following discounts off the suggested retail price of your book.

Author Discount for Dust Jacket/Hardcover Books:

Author Discount for Softcover Books:

* No mixing of different book titles allowed. Orders must be for a single title, same print format and shipped to a single address. All volume discount orders must be prepaid. Author purchases are royalty exclusive and non-returnable. Shipping is paid separately. Discounts apply to the book's retail price.

How can I check the status of my book purchase order?

Once your order has been printed, assembled and boxed, you will receive a confirmation e-mail that includes your UPS tracking number (if you selected UPS delivery). You can then track your order at www.ups.com.

How will I know if you have received my order?

You will know we received your order when you receive an e-mail, fax or phone call from us. Your Sales Order Number will be listed in that document for your information.  If you do not receive a confirmation message from us, then for some reason we did not receive your order. If you have any questions, please contact our Book Sales Department.
