LET’S CHAT

Writing a book encapsulates your mind into a single, well-structured piece of work. For more than one hundred years, books have been the number one way to make meaningful connections with a receptive audience. Best of all: they don’t require you to give up your precious time to be present for every interaction.

We like to break things down into manageable parts. You’ll always be involved in the process, but you won’t need to do all – or indeed, any – of the work yourself.

Attentive Service—Since 2016

Are You Ready To Be The Hero Of Your Own Story?

Perhaps you know you should write that book someday, but you really just don’t have the time to sit down and do it?

Maybe you’ve even tried writing a book already, but you’ve become distracted or lost interest before finishing it?

You might be afraid of failure?

What if you mess it up and damage your reputation?

What if people just don’t like it, or worse, what if they judge you for your DIY approach on a crowded shelf?

Praise from our Authors

  • "As someone new to both writing and publishing, I did my research. I found Cascadia when I searched for legal disclaimers for books. Their blog was so useful, and the team responded to my questions without pressuring me. I found great value in the knowledge they shared, and then when I was ready to sign on, they let me do it at my own pace, picking and choosing the right packages for me. The Cascadia team helped me upload my book to IngramSpark choosing the right keywords and categories that I would not have had the expertise to do myself. They were the perfect fit, and their customer service was excellent. I would definitely work with this team again, and now that I'm published, I know where to come for marketing support."

    Sunita Devi Alves

  • “Having built a successful business, I wanted to share all the hard lessons I’d learned along the way – but I felt overwhelmed at the sheer amount of material I could draw from. And then I started working with Cascadia. First my author coach helped me figure out exactly what I wanted to say in my book, then helped me sift through all my notes to show how best to create a solid book outline with practical points that built logically – and then to illustrate each point with a funny, poignant or pithy example from my career. The book was great fun to write, and then my Cascadia editor showed me all the ways to make it even better – ensuring good flow, clarity of ideas and overall readability. Finally, the production folks were amazing at taking a Word document and transforming it into a book. At every stage, my Cascadia teammates were friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable. These folks are experts at what they do and I couldn’t have asked for better support.”

    Joel Primus, author of Getting Naked: The Bare Necessities of Entrepreneurship and Start-Ups

  • “Ben and his team were a complete pleasure to work with on my book. They helped me at every stage of the book and I benefited immensely from their experience and expertise. I used the book to market my services as a financial advisor, and the feedback from readers was so positive, and my results so successful, that I received more client requests than I could handle and had to start turning potential clients away! I would highly recommend Cascadia for any of your writing needs.”

    Jamal Khan, author of Total Financial Independence

  • “Using Cascadia Author Services proved invaluable for me as an author and as an instructor with a busy training schedule. Truth is, I could not have done it without their help and ongoing guidance. I was particularly impressed with their start-to-finish process; their step-by-step procedures made the entire process easy for me to handle with my daily tight schedule. Although everyone involved was helpful, my project manager Michelle was not only helpful but also very responsive to my questions, saving me lots of invaluable time. Being in the seminar business, I often sell books in person, and Cascadia made this process easy. I also use Cascadia for their expertise in launching my books through social media, along with their knowledge regarding marketing campaigns. Thank you, Cascadia, for the part you played in making my books a reality!”

    Rob Vivian, author of Expecting Awesome Daily

  • “I was genuinely impressed with all of the team at Cascadia. Their support was outstanding through every phase of creating my book. In particular, they really listened to my ideas about cover design and produced not only exactly what I wanted, but also exactly what the book needed. Their expertise on what makes an effective cover was communicated to me in a professional, supportive and patient way. Every stage of editing and book production felt like a friendly collaboration. Even months after my book launched, and I succeeded in getting the book accepted into the biggest bookstore chain in the UK, the Cascadia team was there to provide expert guidance and advice as I navigated the bookstore distribution labyrinth. An author couldn’t ask for a better industry partner than Cascadia Author Services. I highly recommend them.”

    Ian McBeath, author of Going Coastal

How Does Cascadia
Help Aspiring Authors Just Like Me?

Your book is as much your story as it is the story you’ve written. It takes courage to write a book, but you don’t need to do it alone to make a success of it. Cascadia helps aspiring authors by stepping into the process at all the right places to help you learn, have fun, and create the book you’ve always wanted to create!

Every journey is unique, so at the start of the process, you’ll meet with your personal project manager to discuss where you’re at and what you would like to achieve. Your project coordinator will always be there to work with you throughout the process, and they will be your main point of contact.

Off the back of your regular meetings with your project manager, we’ll also bring in a team of relevant people with the right skills to work on specific areas of your book to give you the best result.

Realistically, each piece of the puzzle needs time to breathe. The first idea is seldom the best, so we’ll do the work and then go back into it to polish it up and pull all the top ideas to the foreground.

A quality book can take months or years to produce, but the wait is worth it. There’s nothing so disappointing as taking easy shortcuts and seeing your book flop just because it wasn’t given the right care and attention to make something beautiful from the outset.

We aspire to work as quickly as we can within your preferred timeframe, but we advocate for you the author, and to do that, we must always ensure that things are done properly at every level of your book’s creation process. This does take time to achieve.

You can pick and choose the services you really need. We’ll work closely alongside you, and we’ll incorporate the work you’ve done yourself into our process with care and support.

It’s always worth having a chat with us to show us where you’re at. We’ll give you sage advice, and you may not need to use any of our services if you’ve already got your book to the right level.

Most authors discover that a good homemade book becomes an exceptionally-professional book with our expertise. The best choice is to book a time to chat with our team. We’ll let you know what’s working well, and which areas of your book may benefit from professional author services.

Stories are supple, so they can be bent and shaped into various arcs that can change the reader’s experience.

  • Developmental editing focuses on the structure and style of a manuscript, and is intended to highlight the overall strengths and weaknesses of the presentation of the ideas in the work (not the ideas themselves). 
  • Line editing focuses flow and style of the book to ensure your meaning is presented in the most effective way.
  • Copy editing focuses specifically for any spelling or grammatical errors, consistency of formatting, and correct referencing of third-party material.

Line editing brings art and style into language. Copyediting checks for typos and grammatical errors.

Traditional publishing houses produce and market your book for you. In return, they pay you royalties on your book sales. The advantage of this is that it’s sometimes easier to get into largescale high-street retailers, but the challenge is finding a publisher willing to take a risk with your book, which can take years to achieve.

Self-publishing means that you take care of the production, marketing, and distribution of your book yourself, and in return, you keep all of your profits. The advantage of this is that it’s often easier to just get it done when you’re ready to make your book, but the challenge is navigating the complexities of the book industry alone.

You can submit your book to a publisher or a literary agent if you would prefer to go down the traditional publishing route. We’ll help you prepare your manuscript for submission, and we’ll share our industry knowledge with you to help you win the right publishing contract for your book.


Usually, we’ll take full payment at the start of the project. This gives you access to the best rates and is ideal for those who wish to focus on the project itself without worrying about pending invoices.

If you prefer, you can pay a deposit at the start of your project, and the rest may be paid in milestones at the start of each new stage. This is ideal for people who aren’t quite sure what they’ll need yet, and for those who want to build their project over time.

We can also tailor a monthly installment plan for you. This is ideal for those who know what they need and would like to spread the costs out in equal parts.

Please get in touch to discuss your requirements, and we’ll help you find the best approach for your circumstances.

There’s no perfect time to write a book, and most people who dream of publishing their book but never do are the ones who wait for the perfect time. While it may seem daunting to start, writing a book is just a series of mini-projects that happen in sequence. If you write a few words every day, then you’ll find your first draft complete without too much effort.

We do offer a ghostwriting service, so if you have some ideas but always feel like you’re pushing the start date to the backburners, then we’ll be happy to write it for you if you would like us to.

Yes! We can do everything from helping you come up with ideas to ghostwriting your first draft, editing the perfect manuscript, getting the design work done, and sending your book to market.

Many books are outsourced entirely to Cascadia. We’re always here to help.

You’ll meet regularly with your project manager to discuss the direction and to review your book’s progress. This keeps you in control, and lets you approve the work or request changes throughout the process.

If you feel we can’t resolve change requests for you after your first progress meeting with your project manager, we will be happy to refund your project for you.


Client Reviews

“What I like about Cascadia is that they are smart, savvy, and knowledgeable in areas where I am not – that is, they are totally absorbed in the world of publishing and books and how to connect with readers through digital media and marketing.”

– Martin Humphreys, author of ‘Can’t Buy Me Love’

“I am truly grateful for their enduring support and remarkable and varied talents. I constantly recommend Cascadia Author Services to anyone who asks.”

- Jerena Tobiasen, Multi-Award Winning Author

“The team was outstanding, especially my knowledgeable project manager who patiently and professionally walked me through the entire process. As a first-time author, I was very fearful of the whole process, but she did a terrific job easing all my concerns. If I write another book, I know Cascadia will be my first choice.”
