I have waited over a year for my book to be published. Now their phone number is not in service. I had paid to have my book illustrated and published. What a scam.

They keep stop communicating unilaterally for more than (so far) two weeks, and charge monies for the service they never deliver. I cannot but assume they are not in good condition. Project managers keep leaving the company of get fired, new higher manager approached who also disappeared. Nobody pick up the phone

My Experience with Authors Time as a…

My Experience with Authors Time as a Hispanic Nonprofit AuthorI contracted Authors Time in May 2025 to publish an educational book aimed at empowering Hispanic homeowners and immigrant families. I submitted my manuscript on time and followed all requested procedures, including multiple briefing forms.Unfortunately, as of August, I have not received a single finalized deliverable. The project manager changed without notice, communication has been inconsistent, and repeated requests for a clear production timeline have gone unanswered.Despite my efforts—including emails, certified mail, and phone calls—I have been met with delays, vague promises, and no accountability. I have formally filed a report with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and initiated the chargeback process for failure to render services.This review is not written lightly. I am an author representing a nonprofit mission, not a commercial venture. I am also raising the question of whether the disregard shown may be partially due to the project being in Spanish—a possibility that, if true, would reflect poorly on the company’s values.I encourage other authors, especially those working in bilingual or social-impact contexts, to proceed with caution. My experience has been deeply disappointing and professionally damaging.

I’m a regular client here and would love to share my experience with everyone looking for a reliable ebook editing and publishing partner online. Authors Time is like a Swiss Army knife; they offer every self-publishing service you could think of. Whether it’s editing your manuscript or requesting squared formatting or curation of that intriguing TOC plus devising those perfect chapter titles, team Authors Time is always there for you.

Those well-planned calendars they follow are completely out of the league—feels like Clash of Clans strategy specifically tailored for promoting literary works on the internet. I will definitely return with more projects.

I hired Authors Time to edit and proofread my book and they did an excellent job. I got the best copy possible and was very satisfied with the work.

If there was the option to rate them ten out of ten I would. I would happily work with this company in the future. I had my book edited and it was done to my liking and they did it in a timely manner and they were very professional about everything.

I have worked with other agencies in the past, but Authors Time is the best. Their developmental editing honed my narrative, and their cover designer made my book shine among many others.

We have been using book writing services for some time now and so far they have done a pretty awesome job. The books they have written on their own have helped us sell more products to more people. We have used Authors Times to publish two books so far.

Writing is no easy feat

Writing is no easy feat, and I learned that the hard way. I used to write for hours but to no avail. I couldn’t write the way I wanted nor would the final result reflect my initial ideas. Authors Time helped me achieve my vision.

Publishing is a vicious ordeal

Publishing is a vicious ordeal. It’s anything but easy. And for a first timer, so confusing. I didn’t know what I was doing either, until these guys helped me figure it out. I was surprised to learn how easy publishing becomes when you have someone to guide you through the more technical aspects of the process.

First

First, write a book, then market it for sale. Ahhhh! These two are really daunting tasks. But wait! I've contacted Authors Time, and it was child's play. I'm hiring them again in the future for sure.

Writing a book

Writing a book, proofreading it for mistakes, then worrying about publishing it. I've had all these problems. I've done writing and proofreading but publishing it was not my thing. Authors Time smoothly resolved this issue, and I'm really thankful.
