Launch!

What to Expect

This phase is often a high-communication time between White Deer Publishing and our authors.

Congratulations! You’re published!

  • Your book will be available on our website, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org, and other retailers
  • You’ll begin accruing royalties (if you received an advance, you’ll begin to receive payments once accrued royalties amount to the size of the advance)

What We’ll Be Doing

  • Send a newsletter announcing your launch (and any author Q&A or other launch event planned)
  • Post about your book on social media:
    • On publication day
    • Once a week for a month
    • Once every two weeks for the next two months
    • Then once a month
  • Apply for copyright

What We’ll Need from You

  • Complete the Author Feedback Form (and share a review on our Google Business and Trustpilot profiles too, if you’d like!)

What’s Next

We’ll meet annually to discuss your book (unless otherwise specified)
