Moxie Books Services
Moxie Books provides authors with the tools, support, and publishing infrastructure normally reserved for traditional presses, without requiring writers to give up their rights or creative control.
Publishing Under the Moxie Books Imprint
Members publish under the Moxie Books imprint, gaining the credibility and visibility of a recognized publishing house. This allows books to be listed with retailers, libraries, and reviewers as professionally published titles rather than self-published works.
ISBN Assignment
Moxie Books owns and manages its own ISBN blocks. Members may publish using Moxie-issued ISBNs, dramatically reducing the cost of entry while ensuring that their books are registered under a legitimate publishing imprint.
Author Support
Members have access to in-house feedback and review, including:
Developmental feedback
Sounding board and plot guidance
Proofreading passes
This helps maintain professional standards across the imprint while supporting authors in strengthening their work.
Professional Reviews & Submissions
Moxie Books submits and coordinates books for editorial reviews with major industry reviewers such as Kirkus, Foreword, BlueInk, and similar outlets. By working as a group publisher, members benefit from reduced costs, higher acceptance rates, and greater visibility. Moxie Books also offers editorial reviews for its members and nonmembers (for a fee).
Marketing & Promotion
All Moxie Books titles benefit from pooled promotional efforts, including:
Imprint-wide press releases
Featured listings on the Moxie Books website
Inclusion in the Moxie Books newsletter
Award announcements and promotions
This shared marketing ecosystem gives each book a far greater reach than solo promotion.
Moxie Books Online Store
Members’ books are sold through a shared online storefront, allowing readers to browse, discover, and purchase across the entire Moxie Books catalog. This creates cross-promotion, bundled sales, and stronger brand recognition for every author.
The Moxie Award
Moxie Books hosts the annual Moxie Award, recognizing outstanding independent and emerging authors. Winning and finalist titles receive official award seals, press coverage, and long-term promotional value.
Book Club & Reader Resources
Moxie Books curates reading lists, discussion guides, and book-club materials to help connect readers with our authors and build long-term audience engagement.
Paid Author Services (Non-Members)
Non-member authors may access select Moxie Books services—such as editorial reviews, manuscript assessments, and submission assistance—for a fee. These services also serve as a pathway into full cooperative membership.
