Author Mythology
Your book is ready. Your author identity may not be.
Before a literary agent reads your manuscript, they search your name. Before a reader buys your book, they look you up. Author Mythology is DreamEngine's process for building the complete author identity that makes both take you seriously.
Build Your Author Identity
Publishing with DreamEngine
DreamEngine Publishing offers professional book production through Publish with DreamEngine. It's a flat fee, and you publish through your own Amazon account, so you keep everything it earns. An optional upgrade adds DreamEngine as your credited publisher. Some authors are working towards a genuine traditional deal instead, with an agent or a major publisher. Author Mythology is where that starts. For a complete overview of all routes, read our guide to book publishing.
For authors building their platform, DreamEngine offers social media management and author website design. Both are developed from a complete author identity brief. Manuscript development is available through our story consultancy with Dr David Baboulene. For authors already published, our book marketing service supports promotional campaigns and reader engagement.
Navigating the Publishing Landscape
Before you submit or publish, it helps to understand the options clearly. Our guides to what is hybrid publishing, what is traditional publishing, and what is self-publishing explain the real differences in investment, rights, and royalties. If you are approaching agents or publishers, read why literary agents search your name before they read your manuscript.
For authors at the production and marketing stage, our posts on professional book editing, book cover design, professional book design, and how to optimise your Amazon KDP book listing provide practical guidance. To build your author platform, read our posts on social media for authors, websites for authors, and book publicity.
