'I'm having the time of my life...' - Terry White, With Gently Smiling Jaws and Till the Fat Lady's Sung

“Pen Press offer a complete service including marketing. When my first books were printed, we put a package together and approached Virgin Atlantic. To date they have bought 600,000 for their in-flight kids’ packs. Gerald Howe, Alfies Adventures Books 1 to 5

Thank you all soooooooo much. As you may have guessed, I now have the books in my hot little hands. I can't explain how I feel, I should be able to - being a writer, but I can't. Alan Rice, Wrong Place Wrong Time

“I feel the award should be given to both myself and Pen Press.” Lynn Phillips, Watford Under Wood, winner of David St John Charitable Trust prize for fiction 2006

“The last thing I wrote for TV - my seventh episode of Midsomer Murders - was watched by half a billion people. Why Pen Press? They pick and choose and that puts them a cut above the competition.” Marcus Barr, Haggard Hawk

“Thank you so much for printing and sending me my books , I was thrilled to receive them. I will certainly recommend your services to anyone I know who needs a publisher, and keep you in mind should I venture into print again! It is such a good idea of yours to supply five such beautiful books in this way, allowing people like me to see their work in print, however small and humble it may be. My grandchildren, (and who knows, my great-great grandchildren) will have cause to be thankful to you too!” Gillian Taylor, A Granny's Childhood

“I’m perfectly certain that I wouldn’t have received this level of service with a mainstream publisher – bravo to Pen Press for making it possible!” Hannah Hyam, Fred and Ginger

“I didn’t receive good advice or marketing support from my previous publisher and ended up doing a lot of promotional work off my own bat. I realised I would rather do it myself and retain higher percentages.” Colin Campbell, Through the Ruins of Midnight, Ballad of the One Legged Man, and Gargoyles, Skylights and Roofscapes

“I secured a slot on Radio Ulster, having gone onto the show to be interviewed about my book... and I have just been booked for a second season!” Ronald Frazer, The Good, the Bad, the Best Forgotten

“I wanted to retain creative control and neither sensation-alise or dilute my text.” Nicholas Davies, Rebel Royals and Diana, The Killing of a Princess

“Margaret Forster loved my book! To me it was the highest accolade.” Dulcie Matthews, From Paradise to Eden

“I waited over four months to receive a reply from just one of the eight mainstream publishers I had submitted my work to. When the inevitable rejection came, it was perfectly obvious from the comments that my work had not even been read! I gave up wasting my time with people who weren’t even going to give my work a chance and decided to publish myself.” David Maislish, White Slave
