An independent publishing company with an author-first approach. Every book starts with one page.

A Name With A History, A Company That Is New

The original Stein & Day was a New York publishing house from 1962 to 1989. We are a newer, independent company that chose the name for what it stood for. We are not the original house, and we say so plainly.

A to Z Publishing

From your first draft to a finished book: writing, editing, cover design, formatting, audiobook production and distribution. You pick the pieces you need, and we quote only those.

Built for Today's Author

eBooks, audiobooks, print on demand and online retail have changed how books reach readers. We set your book up for all of it, with the accounts and rights in your name.

Friendship In Waiting
AUTHOR ADVOCACY & TRANSPARENCY

What We Will & Will Not Promise

Publishing is built on mutual trust. Here is our straightforward pledge to every author before a single dollar changes hands.

What We Will Do

Guaranteed
  • Written & Itemized Quotes

    Every single service, timeline, and deliverable is clearly priced in writing before you start. No unexpected surprise fees.

  • 100% Author Ownership & Rights

    Your copyright, production files, publisher accounts, and 100% of your royalties stay solely in your name.

  • Honest, Candid Consultation

    We recommend only the services your manuscript truly requires, and openly advise you on what you can skip.

  • Transparent Campaign Reporting

    Clear, direct metrics on marketing reach, retail clicks, and ad performance—including an honest assessment of what didn't work.

What We Will Never Do

Our Boundary
  • No Bestseller or Sales Guarantees

    Nobody on our team will ever promise an artificial bestseller ranking, guaranteed unit sales, or paid media placements.

  • No Royalty Cuts or Rights Surrender

    We never claim a percentage of your book royalties or retain ownership of your ISBN, manuscript, or final print files.

  • No Bait-and-Switch Pricing

    We never quote an attractive base price only to demand costly hidden "file release" or formatting upgrade fees later.

  • No Restrictive Lock-In Contracts

    No long-term exclusive handcuffs or automatic renewals. You are always free to walk away or switch distributors anytime.
