MANA Testimonials
| Marie Cote' Sherhart |
Being an author for the first time, and not knowing how or where to begin had left me in a state of panic. A good friend informed me about a lovely woman who they knew was indeed, a publisher. I took the chance and called Dr. Fairy C Hayes Scott and was greeted by a sweet, cheerful hello and welcome which put me at my ease. She took a shivering, unsure "wannabe" and gave me the confidence to see it through after presenting all the packages that were available.
Months later, after many questions and assurances that it would go as planned, phone calls and emails which spurned me on, my book THE GLEN was ready. Fairy Hayes Scott remained the same patient and encouraging person, from beginning to end. Today I have a product to be proud of thanks to her kind suggestions and mentoring. The feed back and complimentary comments have made me aware of what I have accomplished with the assistance of Dr. Fairy C Hayes Scott. I have already written another book, which I hope will experience the same journey that this one has.

"I will always be grateful to have been a client of MANA. When I first
viewed the information on the SPAN newsletter, it seemed worth at least a
phone call for more information. The more questions I asked, the better it
sounded, and luckily for me, I decided to sign up with MANA.
"...Services far exceeded my expectations. The support offered is
multi-layered, all at a very affordable price....Responses to any and all of
my notes were nearly instantaneous, ...replies always warm and encouraging.
No one has worked harder to present my book to the public. This has been
especially valuable to me since I was caring for my husband during his long
illness and subsequent death. There was no time left for me to do any
marketing on my own.
"When viewing MANA's web site, one can get a glimpse of how much dedication
and work go into marketing our books. It is gratifying to see the growth
that is occurring each time the next newsletter appears.
"I will be forever grateful for the fine work, energy, and genuine care that
goes into helping individuals and their books. MANA...has my highest
recommendation and grateful thanks"

INVENTING A SCHOOL: EXPANDING THE BOUNDARIES OF LEARNING*
*Dr. Kern gave MANA the mandate to distribute her books at no charge to
various schools and charities. And so, this is the reason why this book is
not offered on the MANA site at this time. MANA fulfilled Dr. Kern's
request.

"Working with MANA Press was an integral part of delivering lots of books
and even more smiles to numerous Detroit elementary students. The nature of
WE READ requires a closer relationship to our publisher. Besides delivering
high quality books on a very tight time line, MANA Press was able to guide
us through all problems that arose by providing friendly assistance.
"They turned our dream into a reality."

came true. I was very pleased with the final product. The editing, lay out,
and art work all came together nicely. I've received many compliments about
the painting on the cover--kudos to your artist!"

" MANA is remarkable in breaking down the boundaries of publishing. Instead
of working only one way with authors, MANA has the approach--tell me where
you are headed and MANA will show you a way to get there. It is absolutely
true that this is a place where people are valued and respected. Very
refreshing in an industry that has forgotten that ideas are not commodities,
and buzz is not necessarily meaningful. MANA cares, and thinks with you and
keeps a faithful connection."

I have had the privilege of knowing and working with Dr. Fairy C. Hayes-Scott for some time now. When I first called her on the phone, after finding her publishing service on the Internet, she was very gracious and knowledgeable about helping me to produce and eventually publish my book with an outside publisher.
She was right there with me through the production of my childrenıs book, which included 45 original illustrations. Her illustrators did a fine job. Their work was creative and charming. They helped to make my characters come alive on paper.
Fairy was also my marketer and she doggedly pursued every outlet to find an established publisher for my book. I am happy to report that she found a major publishing house in India. Manoj Prakashan publishers are releasing the book with an audio CD, and their purpose is to help Indian children learn English.
Fairy, acting as my agent now, worked with the Indian publisher to come up with a most fair contract. I will be able to continue looking for more publishers for my work in other geographical locations. I am so pleased with the work Fairy has done. I am so happy to know that my work will affect childrenıs lives. After all, isnıt that what itıs all aboutpleasing the audience?
My heartfelt thanks go out to Fairy for her efforts on my behalf. I look forward to working with her in the future, as I have a sequel book waiting in the wings.
