A Few Examples


PJ Nakfoor
I loved working with Susie at PPS! In publishing my first novel, she guided me through the process, was prompt, helpful and her rates are exceptionally reasonable. Susie was encouraging and a joy to work with!
author of Stone Cold Blackout
Charissa Stastny
I have loved working with PPS to update covers for several of my existing books. Susie has gone above and beyond what I had expected from a graphic artist to give me ideas and help during the creative process. I am thrilled with the results and will definitely use PPS for all of my creative needs in the future.
author of the Ruled Out Romances
Jessie Cal
If you want the best of the best for your book, Susie is your girl! She’s passionate, talented, and a joy to work with. She took time to understand my voice as an author, as well as the voice of my characters, and her editing was above and beyond my expectations. Highly recommend it.
author of the Disarray series
Lara Alspaugh
I can say that I would not have published either of my novels without Susie. She held this newbie's hand and guided me through all of the challenges and pitfalls (and excitement!) of self-publishing. I can not say enough about her work, and who she is as a person. She wants you to succeed -- and that is priceless.
author of Last Turn Home and Where the Beauty Is
Delaney Foster
...Susie takes my thoughts and ideas and brings them to life in ways that only make them better. Kind of like adding bacon to something that already tastes good. Throw in the fact that she is super easy to work with and an all-around amazing human, and you have the recipe for a really awesome product!

Working with PPS has been a phenomenal experience. I felt like I was on a luxurious island being catered to. My happiness was of the upmost importance to Susie, and for that I'm beyond grateful.
author of Beneath the Makeup
Rachel Ramsbottom
As a first time author it was an overwhelming task to find the right designer, editor and formatting for my book. My editor sent me a list of recommendations for formatting and I chose Poole Publishing Services. This was a choice that I am so glad I made. Susie was prompt in her response and absolutely amazing to work with! I would highly recommend Poole Publishing Services!

PPS has made a huge difference for me. Their overall services have made it much easier for me as an author to get everything done in one place. PPS is easy to work with, it's more than a working relationship, they make it feel like you're a friend. You know that you're important every step of the way.

Working with PPS has been an absolute dream. My questions were always answered promptly, they kept me updated on the status of the projects, and they far exceeded my expectations. I can't recommend Susie enough! I will use her for all my book cover needs.
Author of the Steward Saga
Sharon Johnson
From the moment we saw the exquisite cover, it was love at first sight! It captured not only the essence of our story, but it was so much better than anything we could’ve hoped for.  Susie’s editing skills are second to none and feel very blessed that we’ve found someone who pays attention to every detail. For anyone looking for superior editing, cover design and formatting, this is the company for you.
Author of the Letters Away series
S. M. Holland
Not only has she been meticulous when it comes to the hard work, but she had been personable which has put me at ease. I have received many compliments on my book about how professional it is, and many people are surprised to hear it’s self published! Susie’s editing skills are on point and her cover designs are higher quality than many traditional publishing services I have seen out there.
Author of the Get in My Head series
Jill E Purrazzi
[PPS] not only did a great job with my cover, editing and formatting, but she gave me support, encouragement, and advice the entire way. As a new author, having her there for every step was priceless, and I can’t wait to continue working with her for the next installments!

About Us


Hello, my name is Susie, it’s nice to “meet” you! I have a Master’s degree in Art History, which means I spent years honing my eye for design and writing. While I was a graduate student I edited everything from freshman papers to work by tenured professors in academic journals and books. I began Poole Publishing Services as a small side business while my “day job” was overseeing marketing/communications for a research institute at one of the largest universities in the country. I spent years editing researchers’ writing, creating web content, doing graphic design, and distributing marketing materials – it was awesome! However, as much as I loved academia, my true passion has always been for books — especially novels. I ended up leaving my desk job and focusing on this business full-time. I feel incredibly fortunate, and it brings me great joy to help authors put forth their best possible work and make their dreams come true!
