Frequently Asked Questions
What is self-publishing?
Self-publishing empowers independent authors to bring their books to life without traditional publishers, retaining full creative control and ownership from manuscript to market.
At RLA Publishing, we provide full-service support to make the process seamless. Instead of navigating everything alone, you’ll have access to expert guidance, essential resources, and hands-on assistance every step of the way. You write the story—we help you publish it successfully.
What services does RLA Publishing provide?
RLA Publishing provides essential services like editing, cover design, formatting, eBook conversion, publishing assistance, and marketing support
How do copyright my book?
Your book is automatically copyrighted the moment you begin writing, as copyright protection applies to original works as soon as they are created in a tangible form. However, to legally protect your rights and enforce them in court, you should register your copyright with the U.S. Copyright Office.
Registering provides a public record of ownership and strengthens your ability to take legal action if someone infringes on your work. You can apply online through the U.S. Copyright Office here:
https://www.copyright.gov/
Can I retain the rights to my self-published book?
Yes, with self-publishing, you retain all rights to your book, and you can make decisions about its distribution, pricing, and future adaptations.
How do I get an ISBN?
You have a few options for obtaining an ISBN (International Standard Book Number) for your book:
1. Amazon KDP provides a free ISBN, but Amazon will be listed as the publisher, and it cannot be used outside of Amazon.
2. Purchase your own ISBN from Bowker for $125, which allows you to be listed as the publisher and use it across multiple platforms.
3. RLA Publishing can provide an ISBN as part of our publishing packages, with RLA Publishing listed as the publisher—a great option if you want professional support with your book's release.
Your ISBN is essential for distribution and sales tracking, so choosing the right option depends on your publishing goals!
Can I sell my self-published book through major retailers?
Yes, most self-publishing companies provide distribution to major online retailers like Amazon and Barnes & Noble, helping your book reach readers worldwide.
