Mike, my dream would be ashes were it not for you.
My book would have never seen the light of day were it not for you.
The wisdom I retrieved from infinite intelligence would not have ever been available to light the way for tens of thousands of eager seekers were it not for you.
My mission to master the methods of Einstein, Mozart and Edison would not have emerged Into light were it not for you.
No words can adequately expressly my gratitude for your goodness, your generosity and your graciousness as you guided me through the grambles, the gauntlets and the      quagmires of getting my book published.

Mike Rounds has been an excellent Shepard to me, a lost lamb in the wildness of self-publishing. He is highly well informed and will find answers to my myriad of questions concerning, "what to do next".


 I have been very impressed with his turn around time in formatting my text to Amazon, making revisions on Mykogo ( a dual screen for him and me to work on together) and resubmitting again and again. I have already recommended Mike's services to other writers and will use his services again for my next book.

My experience with Mike Rounds has been phenomenal. He took my dream to the next level. When you have that fishing pole/manuscript in hand, he prepares you with the correct bait/platform to go deep cyber fishing in the world of self-publishing.  I’ve learned so much in this process and I’m eager to learn more for even greater success. When you’re serious about your career as a published author, Mike Rounds is the one to call.

To all of you want to be authors and established authors.  After attending Mikes seminar and procrastinating for about 3 years, I finally decided to go with Mike and he turned my rough manuscript into a thing of beauty. Mike is the most patient human being I have ever met. He will support you 110%.  Had it not been for Mikes guidance and excellent work, my book would not exist today. I have three more books lined up and I wouldn't think of using anyone other than Mike Rounds to help me get them published.  He is a mountain of information and gives great advice. You will never regret using his services.

Sincerely,

I met Mike Rounds at a seminar that was sponsored  by Pierce College last year.

At the time, I had just finished my manuscript and was at a loss about what to do with it. All I had ever heard about publishing was mailing in manuscripts to different publishing houses and waiting for answers. However, when I received the pamphlet from Pierce college listing a course in self-publishing, I signed up immediately. 

My family was interested in my becoming educated and gathering information on self publishing and I took my notebook and was ready to learn about becoming a published author.

However, it was harder than I realized and the copious notes I took seemed over-whelming and my excitement and joy for getting my book on the shelves seemed to me disappointing.  

When I explained to my family my confusion about publishing my book, they offered to help me and I gave them the extra books and cd's that Mike sold after class.   They felt that all they had to do was to listen to the cd's; read the books, and with that information, they would be thoroughly educated in the publishing business.

Unfortunately, no one had the time to read the class notes, or books or listen to the cd's so my manuscript sat on my desk few months.  However, Mike did offer to meet with me and I brought my husband along so that he'd get a clearer idea of what needed to be done. Of course, I knew that I wanted to employ Mike to help me get my book published in a timely manner before my 65th birthday, but I played it cool because I also knew the fees involved.

After we met with Mike at his home, my husband knew that it was more difficult than he expected and with that being said, he knew that he could not keep up with the responsibilities that were required to get the job done.

Pointing out to Alan that it would be in our best interest to have a professional with the expertise of publishing combined with knowhow and knowledge made it an easy decision.
After signing the contract, Mike's promises came true.  He worked with me almost on a daily basis, even during the weekends, giving me assignments to do such as setting up a paypal account, signing up for create space, etc. in addition to editing and more editing,  Even when he was out doing seminars, he would return my calls instantly.

If it weren't for Mike Rounds, my book would still be sitting on my desk.

Thank you, Mike

Without Nancy and Mike Round’s support and expert advice to me, I would not have been able to finish a book that was on my bucket list to publish.

With their patience and guidance, I was able to complete the book called, “Got Kids”? and sell it as one of the top sellers on Amazon and at the local book stores (when they existed).

I have also used the book in workshops with the United States Marine Corps and it is one of the most sought after books that the military uses in training for parenting, marriage and healthy relationships.

Blessing to these two remarkable people who are doing life-changing work with their service to others.

​Thank you, sir! Jim

I can honestly say that I got my book written because of Mike Rounds. 

 I had been compiling information for years for my book but still hadn’t put it all together.  I’m sure this sounds familiar to many “want-to-be authors”.

Had I not gone to one of Mike’s classes on writing your own book and hired him, my book would most likely still be a pile of paper. 

He knows his stuff and he is easy to work with.  

He is there for phone calls, pep talks, and guidance from the beginning of the process to the end.  He gets things done when he says he will and that is always quickly.  

He expects you to do your part while he will go above and beyond to help you be successful.  

If you truly want to write a book, then I highly recommend you hire Mike Rounds.  

You will not be disappointed.

Mike Rounds is the BEST,  Not only as friend and  teacher but as the "go to man" to get a job done.
 
I have attended seminars that Mike Rounds has given and learned the steps however when the" metal meets the road" of doing it there were many additional steps that only with his help could I have completed this task.
 
His discipline in meeting schedules and keeping me in line worked.
 
His knowledge on getting books published and jumping through the hoops to get the results necessary 
are amazing.  
 
My personal experience is I had written a book in 1991, ON THE EDGE HEALTH CRISIS HEALPING YOURSELF ....it had gone through 8 printings and was time for an update.
 
In the meantime I had suffered a few mini strokes and wanted to complete my goal of a second edition of this book.  Mike came to my aide and he guided me through the steps to accomplish this challenge.
 
We worked together and completed this task in one month   I can't thank Mike enough.
