"A Commitment to Authors First"

From the Founder,

I'm an Eagle Scout. That means something to me, it's not just a badge I earned as a kid. It's a commitment to integrity, service, and doing the right thing even when no one's watching.

I started Laney House Publishing because I was disgusted by what I saw in this industry: predatory vanity presses draining authors' savings, traditional publishers controlling everything, and writers getting trapped in contracts that steal their work and their money.

Here's my promise as a publisher:

I will never touch your royalties. Your money goes directly to your bank account.
I will never hide fees or upsell you on things you don't need.
I will never lock you into contracts that take away your rights.
I will treat your work with the respect it deserves.

You keep 100% of your rights. You keep 100% of your royalties. You keep control.

That's not just good business, it's the only ethical way to do this work.

Sincerely,

Joshua M Huckaba
Founder, Laney House Publishing, LLC
