Tate Publishing & Enterprises, LLC

Tate Publishing & Enterprises, LLC, is a Christian based, family owned, main-line publishing organization with a mission to discover unknown authors. We combine unknown authors undiscovered potential with Tate Publishing's unique approach to publishing, and provide you with the highest quality book with the most inclusive benefits package available.

Tate Publishing was formed after founders Richard & Rita Tate published their first book with a traditional mainline royalty publishing company. They soon found out that what they had invested many years of their lives in was no longer theirs. The rights were now the publishers and the majority of the royalties were going to them. That's when they set out to redefine what a mainline royalty publisher should be.

Remember, the most important step to get started is to submit your manuscript. In 2007, we accepted only 3.5% of the manuscripts submitted for publication. Your manuscript will be reviewed for one of three possible contract options. First, it will be reviewed to see if the work merits a negotiated royalty advance. Second, it will be reviewed to determine if Tate Publishing will absorb all production and distribution costs with no investment by the author. Lastly, you may be offered a contract in which Tate Publishing absorbs the bulk of the production and distribution costs with a refundable author investment.

At Tate Publishing & Enterprises, we believe your work is just that—your work. We believe that you should make the most money from your project. You will retain all rights to your manuscript, PLUS retain the highest royalties in the business from your sales. That's the way it should be! And that's the way we do business.
