Three Paths to Publish With Inkwell
01. Use Inkwell Software (Do-It-Yourself)
If you subscribe at Inkwell.net, you can produce your book yourself using our intuitive publishing platform—no Studio fees. We provide the tools. You stay in full control.
02. Inkwell Studio (Done-for-You)
Prefer a team? We manage the whole production workflow for you.
Studio production fee: $5,000 for a standard-length, clean manuscript (optional editorial work beyond a light copyedit available at $75/hr)
This fee applies only if you choose to self-publish or work with another press.
03. Publish With Inkwell Press (Get Professionally Published)
If your book is accepted by Inkwell Press, we waive the $5,000 Studio fee and we handle the production and the metadata. Inkwell Press is a selective traditional publisher, so there is no guarantee it will be accepted.
Revenue share is a phenomenal 50/50 of net (possible because of the power and efficiency of our technology). We ensure professional distribution.
If a manuscript isn’t the right fit stylistically or strategically, we will still assist you—either via the Studio or by recommending other presses.
Manuscript Requirements
To begin the 30-day Studio process, your manuscript must:
- Be a complete, near-final draft
- Require at most a light copyedit
- Be moderate in length & complexity (academic/technical okay)
- Be ready for proofing—not developmental editing
If more editorial work is needed, you may:
- Do the revisions yourself
- Hire your own editors
- Engage Inkwell editorial support at $75/hr

Whether you:
- ✅ Produce your book yourself using Inkwell software
