What Hard Shell Does – Welcome to the Future

Hard Shell publishes quality book-length non-fiction and fiction -- Mystery and Suspense, Action and Adventure, Romance (all categories), Science Fiction, Fantasy, Horror, Western, Historical, Mainstream, Young Adult and Children's books.

Hard Shell Word Factory is a royalty-paying publisher of work by both established and new authors, for sale in Hard Shell trade paperback format or electronic format (e-books). Many Hard Shell books have won or placed in prestigious writing contests and readers choice awards.

In favor of the author, Hard Shell doesn’t offer advances, but royalties which are paid quarterly are much higher than those offered by traditional publishers, plus the author's work is available a full year with option for renewal, instead of a few short weeks.

Hard Shell has been in business since 1996 and is one of the pioneers of e-publishing.  They have assumed a major role in setting standards for quality e-books.  Hard Shell publishes in multiple formats to meet the publishing world’s “wave of the future,” making their authors available for new e-readers and hand-held devices.
