Review from MindStir Media author Therese Grant

“The book proof arrived today and it really looks great! Maria came to my house and we give this a “good to go to print” thumbs up!

Please give the team a big thank you from me and Maria. We would not consider going anywhere else to have our work published. Everyone at MindStir Media involved with the publication of our book treated us like we were the only clients. The attention to detail, patience, kind replies to our endless emails and quick responses were very much appreciated.

Maria and I look forward to working with you and the team on “The Long Ride,” the next book in our series.”

–Therese Grant, author of The Adventures of Amy and Sue: The Bumpy Dirt Road

Review from MindStir Media author Katelyn Medlin

Katelyn has been great to work with and recently she sent us a very kind email with regards to the full cover design that we created for her: "Wow! I am blown away… This looks amazing! I am just so happy that it’s all finally coming together. Thank you so so much for all your work. It’s greatly appreciated."

Katelyn Medlin's book, Rusty to the Rescue, will be released this month (November). It'll be available at Amazon.com, Barnesandnoble.com and other fine retailers worldwide.

Review for MindStir Media - from author Elizabeth Eckel

Update 11/3/15: This book is now available to purchase!

Elizabeth Eckel is working with her daughter, Diana Mooremeans, to publish The Ornament’s Story. A short time ago they received the final electronic proof for the layout design of the children’s book. Diana chimed in and said, “It’s just wonderful! Let’s go forward with it to be published! Thank you for all of your help. Have a great day.” She has since received the printed proof. The book will be published by MindStir Media and available in time for holiday purchases. 

This author published another book with MindStir Media in December 2014 as well. It’s entitled The Christmas Tree.

New Review from MindStir Media author Harold McAdams

Harold approached MINDSTIR MEDIA LLC earlier in 2015 with a children's book idea and text but needed help finding a children's book illustrator who could take his concept from an idea to an actual fleshed out book with full-blown illustrations. The end result was Alvin Stops the Bully, a fantastic children's picture book with a great lesson. Here's what Harold had to say about working with MINDSTIR MEDIA LLC:

“J.J. Hebert, President at MindStir Media and talented staff at MindStir Media: Vision, Leadership and Professional… I am very pleased and happy with your services…

My manuscript, Alvin Stops the Bully: An idea came to me, I wrote it down, and then I re-wrote it. I balled it up and threw it away, until I decided to go ahead … and send it in. I was so hesitant while I was writing to say that “I am writing a book”… Thank you all for believing in my work.” 

MindStir Media author Tanja Huston explains her experience publishing with MindStir

Tanja Huston contacted us here at MindStir Media earlier this year and told us that she needed help illustrating and publishing her children's picture book. We quickly assigned a MindStir Media illustrator to her and her book and within a few months she had her book in hand. Juju's Big Surprise was recently released by MindStir Media. 

“The entire process of self-publishing was my first rodeo.  Mindstir Media was nothing less than exceptional.  Their team of professional, skilled and friendly staff was evident from beginning to end.  We collaborated so well during the illustration process and the timely, ongoing communication helped move by book way ahead of its anticipated completion date.  Overall, I am extremely pleased with my first book.”

Referring to the full book cover design: “Please forgive me for sounding corny, but I’m actually in TEARS right now.  The wrap-around is absolutely amazing!!! I love it!”

And then, later on in the self-publishing process: “I received the printed copy of Golden Choices on Tuesday evening.  It looks wonderful.”
