Built, Not Born: One Entrepreneur's Journey from Nothing to Everything
As a new author it was a daunting task to take my book, Beautiful ME, from concept to print. Braughler Books was a wonderful piece in that puzzle, working with me to ensure that final product was just how I envisioned it. David was always available via email, phone, or in person to see this project through.
— Chioma Lindo
As an author with experience working with both a “regular” publishing company and self-publishers I have found Braughler’s hybrid publishing services to be excellent! David Braughler and his team are very knowledgeable and professional and extremely helpful. I will definitely use them for my next book and I would recommend Braughler to all new authors.

David believed in my goals and what I was trying to accomplish, which is most important especially for a first-time author. The process was very detailed and concise. David told me he would be available throughout the entire process and he was. When I saw the cover of my book, I knew I made the right choice with Braughler Books. I could not have asked for a better person and publishing company to work with than Braughler Books. What a great experience!
— Elaine L.
When I met David, and absorbed his publishing expertise and his personal dedication to my success, I wanted him on my publishing team. With David involved, I was able to save money by avoiding unneeded services, and with his company’s help, was able to offer a hard cover version of my book (something the publishing service I had chosen wasn’t able to offer). Whenever I had question about layout or distribution, or felt like I might lose momentum, he was there. David’s talent and commitment to his customers’ success is unwavering. David has become a friend, a confidant, a coach. He is always available. He will get you to the finish line with your book and you will be impressed with the results.
— Gary R., Author and CEO
David Braughler is genuinely interested in helping a writer publish a great book. He takes the time to read through it and give his input. He also guides you through the steps of getting the piece of writing online to be published. I would highly recommend him to any aspiring writer.

Music and Me
As a first time clueless writer, working with David Braughler was everything I had hoped for and more. David was very precise and focused on exactly what I needed to complete my book. He saved me many weeks and much money compared to other publishers I talked to. David was right there every step of the way. If I needed a rush he was quick to respond. I would not be where I am today without David’s tremendous help. If you have any questions about what to do next just call David.
I am so grateful to David and his team at Braughler Books for seeing my vision for “Let it Flow: A Journal to Guide You on Your Breastfeeding Journey” and making it a reality! As a busy mom of three young children, I didn’t have time to figure out how to self-publish on KDP. Plus, given that my book is a journal, I needed to ensure the paper stock could sustain handwritten notes. David and his team helped me through every step of the process. Their designers presented so many beautiful cover options, it took me weeks to choose! The quality of my journal is also gorgeous, with a very tactile cover – something that was very important to me. Being a new mom can be very grueling and lonely. I wanted readers to have something lovely to touch and interact with as they navigate life feeding a baby. Thank you so much, Braughler Books!

Let it Flow: A Journal to Guide You on Your Breastfeeding Journey
Since I didn’t know a thing about publishing and didn’t know of a good publisher, I was referred to Braughler Books. After I emailed David Braughler, he replied quickly, set up a meeting and gave me some homework of gathering a few children’s books. David needed to see what I envisioned for my printed book.
David made me feel comfortable at our first meeting as he presented copies of his company’s published, children’s books as samples. My questions and concerns were answered in a professional manner which really put me at ease.
After I signed a contract to go to print, the design of my digital images and text began. When I looked at the initial layout concepts for the pages, I experienced a struggle to reconcile larger proportions of my book with good design. David responded to a weekend call to calmly listen to my artistic crisis, plea and correction. Yes, David does work on the weekends! His responsiveness and solution to my request was to find another printing company that could print in a slightly larger format.
I enjoyed working with David because of his responsiveness and professionalism. He knows the publishing business well. My first published book is of fine quality. David is detail oriented too. His company inspected hundreds of my books, straight from the printer for quality control, before he delivered the copies to me. I look forward to having Braughler Books publish my second children’s book in the near future.

Little Blue's Catch

He provided me with an amazing editor and has given me many tips to promote my published book. I would recommend Braughler Books to any new or already existing authors. David is very knowledgeable in the publishing industry and a great guide for new authors.

Heart of Aquilia
My experience with Braughler Books was absolutely incredible. From start to finish, David and his staff handled my book with dedication, care and white glove service.
Because this was my first time publishing, Braughler Books made additional efforts to ensure that I understood each step of the process. They guided me through the tedious steps and allowed me full creative control of the photos, content and cover. That said, David did an excellent job of informing me what would and wouldn’t work and he was always just an e-mail or text away.
When the first proof came in not up to his standards, he found additional resources and helped me create a high quality, full color coffee table book I am proud of. He even waived some additional costs and helped me better understand book printing in general.
Additionally, I developed a genuine rapport with David and always felt like I was the only client when he was working with me.
I have no doubt that my next two books will be with Braughler Books.

Braughler Books, LLC produced a wonderful presentation of my book titled See? Living Blind in a Sighted World of which I am very proud. I am most appreciative of David’s valuable support from his initial, eager, heartwarming acceptance of my manuscript to publishing of See?; including it for sale on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, other booksellers; and registering it with the Library of Congress. He also referred me to Nancy LaFever, an editor with whom I established an excellent rapport while she assisted me in revising the manuscript.
Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
