Response from Rushmore Press - Literary Agency· Aug 2, 2022
Hi Lara, Thank you for this encouraging feedback. Your vote of confidence is well appreciated.
I could not be more dissatisfied with my Rushmore experience. It took about a year longer than expected for them to get my book published (and that is after I had published with Authorhouse which was a better experience but Rushmore promised me more royalties!). So far, one year later, I have received NOTHING...no royalties, no communication except someone from Rushmore trying to sell me another "deal". like an ad in the New York Times?? Nope. I am very disappointed. The time frame was horrible and I paid out my money and my end of things and I really wish I could see something in return...because I know a lot of people contacting me that they bought my book!

I completed the Experience Survey previously and my computer apparently jumped it ahead?? Briefly again, this is my first experience with Rushmore and It has been a Pleasant and Professional experience!! To continue where PC jumped ahead, Super Kudos to Beth Oliver, my project coordinator!! She is Tops; Professional, Knowledgeable, Constructive and a Pleasure to work with!!! I have experienced several publishing agencies thru 12 documentaries and novels, to this point, Rushmore has exceeded All Expectations!!! Hope this goes thru and the previous I wrote as Well!!

When publishing your book with Rushmore Press, you are assigned a Project Manager and I'm writing to say that the Project Manager for my book, Beth Oliver, is doing a great job. I particularly appreciate her help in working out the book cover (front and back) through several revisions of the cover text and the cover art. She has been efficient, patient and effective in accepting my revisions, forming a bridge between me and and the book design artist, and helping us all arrive at what I feel is an excellent final cover. I'm confident that with Beth Oliver as Project Manager, my book is in excellent hands as it moves through the final phases of production to publication.

We got off to a very shaky start and I had many doubts about how this was going to turn out, however after the bumpy road turned into smooth pavement, Beth has been pretty good to work with. It's still early in the process, but seeing the book cover [front and back], I knew this would be something special. Whomever it was who did the artwork on the cover, captured the very essence of my entire journey. I had always envisioned a darker cover, but when I saw the white cover, it is exactly the way it should be. Whoever you are, thank you for your attention to detail! And to Beth, thank you for guiding me through this very new arena.

Creating the cover have been a good experience they were fast
By Kebeh S.
As a "work-in-process" rating...the folks at Rushmore have just (ahead of schedule) upgraded 70 pieces of art covering two children's books and the results (as promised) are better than the original art that was provided. They have also been open to (and completed) adjustments/requests on cover art, fonts, and other design details (I request them, and they make them). Impressive so far - really looking forward to the finished product!
