If you want to publish a book, no place can be better than Alive Book Publishing. Their team of professionals offers the best service one can hope for. They did all the editing, design, publicity, quality printing—everything! Working with Eric and his team was amazing, and we developed a strong bond of friendship. They came up with such a wonderful title for my book, it makes everyone want it when they see it; "PROMISES BETRAYED: An Afghan Interpreter at the Fall of Kabul." The cover and inside of the book are so well designed—it immediately tells you what the book is about. The professional work of their designer, Alex, made my book a bestseller in the UK, and ALIVE’s publicity campaign facilitated more than two dozen TV and Radio interviews for me, including one with Andrea Mitchell on NBC, Trey Gowdy on Fox News, and several on the BBC. Finally, through his personal connections, Eric got the full support of US Army General (Retired) David Petraeus, Ex-Director of CIA and former Commander of US and NATO Forces in Afghanistan, for my book. General Petraeus reviewed the full draft of my book and wrote the Foreword which added to the credibility of my work. Alive Book Publishing definitely deserves FIVE Stars. I highly recommend them.

I recently published my book "Kalea The Mosaic Sea Turtle" through Alive Book Publishing. Eric and Peggy are amazing to work with and helped me every step of the way. Eric was always there to answer questions and give advice which in the end I believe has contributed to success of my book. I recommend Alive Book Publishing !

It was an immense honor and pleasure to work with Gary as my coach for my public speaking development. Gary pushed me out of my comfort zone, yet it was easy to connect with him. He can inspire anyone of any age. His lessons are very structured and memorable, and I always learn something new every time I have a coaching session with him. Gary’s coaching program was a great opportunity for me to enhance my public speaking abilities and grow my confidence. I would most definitely recommend him as your personal and professional development coach.

I took my manuscript to ALIVE Book Publishing, and they made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire publishing process. They spent countless hours, patiently working with me—putting heart and compassion into working with me. I couldn’t have imagined that it would turn out so beautiful. I don’t give them five stars—I give them ten stars, because it wasn’t just excellent work that their company provided, it was the patience and the love. They made my story come ALIVE so I could share it with the world. I offer my very special thanks and appreciation for all that they did to publish my book. God bless them for their work.

I wrote my life story and I wanted to share it with the world. I went to see Eric Johnson at ALIVE Book Publishing and he told me, “We’ll get your book published the way you want it published.” People love my book, and it's all thanks to ALIVE Book Publishing.

In the summer of 2012 I walked into Eric Johnson’s office at ALIVE Book Publishing with a wonderful idea for an oral history, a book of short stories honoring the pilots who had served in Vietnam. I wanted to produce a first class book that would be a treasure both to the men who had written their stories and their families. Eight years later, in 2020, the fourth volume, in what has become a series, was released. ALIVE Media is a family-owned business. I have not only enjoyed working with Eric and his team, they have become dear friends and have been a source of encouragement and inspiration as I have collected the stories for these volumes. This project has enriched the lives of all involved and it was truly a blessing that I found ALIVE.

My experience with ALIVE Book Publishing began in late 2014 to publish my first book. In general, a person writes a book to make a contribution of some kind in some way to mankind. ALIVE Book Publishing understands this and is outstanding in the way it helps its clients achieve this. It is family owned such that they care to do their very best. The principal owner and publisher, Eric Johnson, is diverse in his experiences and could converse intelligently on just about any subject. This is especially helpful and inspiring. The success of his organization is made evident by its constant stream of newly published books.

From the beginning, my experience with ALIVE Book Publishing was positive. Our deliberations were informative and thoughtful as to the process and actions taken towards the publication of my two books, Cup of Joy and Soulmate. I am very pleased with both books.

I was almost ready to publish my third book when I was asked to edit a book being published by a friend, and I asked him who was publishing the book for him. He told me that it was a local company, ALIVE Book Publishing. I contacted their office and made an appointment. That was the beginning of a great experience, working with Eric and Peggy Johnson, two very warm, friendly, and knowledgeable people. My book is now in print and available through major booksellers. The graphic designer, Alex, beautifully retouched the very old photo that appears on the cover.

I just wanted to thank you again for helping me accomplish my goal of getting my manuscript published into a book. Your immediate interest in the subject matter not only helped to inspire me to complete the book but your feedback on edits, as well as finalizing the title were indispensable. Moreover, your expertise in publishing not only allowed me access to major distribution outlets like Amazon, and Barnes and Noble, but also made it possible for bookstores to order my book. Thanks again for providing this valuable service and helping me get my story off my desktop and into people hands.
