Queashar Detroit Publishing, LLC® is dedicated to empowering aspiring authors to share their expertise by publishing professional-quality nonfiction books which meet industry standards.

Queashar Halliburton, CEO & President, meets with each prospective client one-on-one to assess their publishing needs. The initial consultation includes:

  1. Discussion of Skyrocket Your Success Author Accelerator
  2. Identification of the target audience and genre
  3. Review of required manuscript and elements (foreword, dedication, acknowledgments, etc.)
  4. Book title selection
  5. Book cover design options and literary goals

After the initial consultation, prospective clients will receive details on their specific recommended publishing options along with the appropriate contracts.
