First Hand

Real lives. Stories only you can tell.

Who it’s for

For writers who want to share their lived experiences and personal stories.
We welcome memoirs, autobiographies and personal testimonies that offer an intimate perspective on a life, an event or a defining experience.

What we offer

Help with book structure, editing, proofreading, cover design, formatting, ISBNs, paperback and ebook publication, distribution setup and launch promotion.

How it works

Send us your book idea, intended audience and manuscript status.
We’ll review your submission individually and contact you if we’d like to explore publication through First Hand.
