Publishing Isn’t Just A Business To Us.
It’s Personal.

It’s easy to get lost in the complexities of publishing. Too many people spend thousands of dollars going down the wrong publishing path. Not knowing how to use the many options available, they end up frustrated and in the wrong place.

We aim to change that for as many aspiring authors as possible.

Dudley Court Press Offers A Different Experience

We’re a full-service hybrid publishing house for authors. Not only do we publish books, we offer an array of coaching and marketing programs and resources as well. We are not a transaction house. We develop long-term relationships with our author-clients, many of whom return to publish a second or even third book with us.

From idea to on-the-shelf in just fourteen months

Gail Woodard asked me to write a book that she knew was sorely needed. Her inspiration, knowledge and guidance made the whole process enjoyable and fast. The project flowed easily and steadily without any stress. She managed to get this book from idea to on-the-shelf in just fourteen months.

A Message From Gail Woodard,

Publisher & CEO

As an author myself, I know how daunting a book project can be. I spent years as a strategic planner, marketer and educator. Now I love coaching and guiding both our authors and our team of professionals here at Dudley Court Press. I’m personally involved with every book project and author. I’ll keep an eye on your ultimate goals and we’ll work together to create practical solutions for achieving them.

My job is to help our authors focus on strategic book development and marketing so that their book experience is satisfying and their books make a difference.

We don’t work with every author who knocks on our doors. We’re selective. We publish meaningful books written by interesting authors. We want to help thoughtful people change the world through the books they write.

I look forward to learning more about your book project.
