Pain-Free Publishing
Empowering Authors Through Pain-Free Publishing
InkIT Publishing and Deanna’s World Author Services have joined forces to help indie authors not just survive—but thrive. Through our Pain-Free Publishing workshop series, we’re removing the mystery (and misery) from the publishing process—relieving roadblocks, reducing stress, and giving authors clarity, confidence, and control at every stage of their journey.
InkIT Publishing is the creative home of bestselling crime-thriller author Steve Shipley and a select group of client authors. We focus on publishing compelling fiction and nonfiction that connect deeply with readers—and guiding authors who want to turn their manuscripts into meaningful, market-ready books.
Partnering with Deanna’s World Author Services, we offer hands-on support in strategic planning, editing, cover design, launches, and marketing. Deanna has helped more than 300 books come to life, combining her business acumen with an intuitive understanding of what makes stories sell.
Together, InkIT Publishing and Deanna’s World are more than publishing partners—we’re your personal support team. Whether you’re navigating your first book or scaling your author career, we’ll help you learn the steps, master the tools, and achieve professional results without the overwhelm.
And now, through our Pain-Free Publishing workshops, you can access that same expertise at an unbelievable value—one focused, step-by-step solution at a time.
After a strong start in 2025, we’re preparing to relaunch the remainder of our Copyright and Protection workshop series and other workshops in early 2026—bigger and better than ever. We’re expanding our lineup to include topics authors have asked for most, from marketing to AI tools. Follow us on Eventbrite or Substack for updates, resources, and future sessions designed to help you publish with clarity, confidence, and control.
