Happy Authors
"Working with Our Galaxy is always a highlight! Christine and Lindsay are prompt, transparent, thorough, and efficient. I love working with them both!"
"Being an older independent author, Our Galaxy has been very kind and patient with me as I navigate the technology of today’s world. Without Lindsay’s formatting, my books would still be on a floppy disk from the yesteryears. And, let’s be honest, without Christine’s editing, my stories would be repetitive and shallow."
"Christine was so helpful in every aspect of publishing. She gave me direction and resources along my journey. I’m still in the process of publishing my first book and look forward to her help in the future with marketing and other needs."
