Read on to learn more about the people as well as the processes involved in turning your ideas into a professionally published book.
1. Getting Started
Contact an Pantheon Books Publisher Publishing Consultant. Choose a publishing package. Purchase the package that fits your publishing goals.
Publishing Consultant
Your initial guide on your self-publishing journey will discuss the options and services available to you and will help you choose the best one that will suit your needs.

Check-In Coordinator
Your Check-In Coordinator will set expectations regarding timelines and processes your book will go through and will make sure that you’ve submitted all the materials needed to create your book.
Editorial Consultant
If your chosen package includes Editorial Assessment or if you've purchased the service separately, you can expect an Editorial Consultant to contact you to discuss your editing needs as identified by the editorial evaluation team. He or she will also determine if your book will need additional editorial services.
Content Evaluator
As the title suggests, his or her job is to evaluate incoming manuscripts, making sure that they meet Pantheon Books Publisher standards. In this first check, the Content Evaluator will make sure your manuscript is free of legal issues including, but not limited to, plagiarism, copyright infringement, libel, or pornography.
Encoder, Editor, & Illustrator
The encoder, editor, and illustrator will take care of your respective data entry, editing, or illustration requirements whether these services are already included in your publishing package or if you've purchased them separately.
3. Production

4. Final Prep
You’re one stop away from publishing your book. Send in your approval, and we’ll wrap up production.

At this point, your Publishing Services Associate will make sure that your expectations have been met. He or she will then secure your approval to finalize your book.
Final Quality Assessment
A member of our FQA team will do a final quality check on the design and layout of your book for printer compliance.

Your manuscript is sent back to the Content Evaluator to make sure that everything still conforms to our content guidelines after going through all the revision stages.

The marketing services you signed up for will determine who works on your marketing campaign. Writers and researchers create blurbs for press releases and the like, while designers work on creating your website's layout.
