At My Word Publishing we manage the full self-publishing process for authors who want a professional, guided experience without navigating the industry alone. From early strategy and editorial planning to design, distribution, and launch, we act as a steady project manager and advocate for our clients every step of the way.

Our work is rooted in relationships and trust. Rather than one-size-fits-all packages, we build a custom publishing team for each book, drawing from a vetted network of editors, designers, and publishing specialists who have worked on hundreds of successful titles across genres. Referral compensation is built into the system, allowing collaboration to stay aligned and transparent.

We primarily serve writers, entrepreneurs, and thought leaders who care deeply about the quality and integrity of their work. Many are first-time authors who feel overwhelmed by the logistics of publishing. Others have started the process and need clarity, structure, and experienced guidance to move forward confidently. We translate the industry, outline clear timelines and costs, and help authors make informed decisions that serve both their book and their long-term goals.

At the heart of our work is the belief that publishing should feel supported, not intimidating. A book is more than a product. It is a credibility builder, a legacy piece, and a powerful extension of someone’s life or work. Our role is to make sure that book is produced with care, professionalism, and intention from start to finish.

Nine years ago, Polly Letofsky started My Word Publishing, a new publishing model where we help authors professionally self-publish their books while they maintain 100% of ownership.
