Testimonials
Without the careful and multi-faceted guidance of Gail and the To Press & Beyond team, I don’t know how my book would have ever seen the light of day . . . Their deep knowledge of the self-publishing book industry and its players made a big difference to the quality of my book, my experience of getting it to market and the positive reaction of my readers. I highly recommend them.

We were thrilled with Gail as our publicist for the release of The Science of Serial Killers. Her professionalism, attention to detail, and personal touch made us feel confident and well taken care of! Gail listened to our goals and was thorough when gathering information for marketing our book. We definitely recommend her!
