| If having your book edited is not important to you |
Regardless of whether you use PENDIUM to edit your manuscript or someone else professionally capable of doing so, we're wanting authors who are serious about their work. You may be able to find an experienced editor on your own who can offer you quality service at a better rate than we can. If so, great. We encourage you to take it. Elance.com is one place you might want to search. Our concern is not whether we edit your book or someone else, just that it's been edited by someone experienced in editing and that your best work hits the market.

| If you're not comfortable with written communication |
| We believe that keeping things in writing eliminates confusion and protects the author and the publisher from any miscommunication. It gives you, the author, additional protection throughout the publishing process and allows both parties to have notes to refer back to when it comes to instructions or other pertinent details. Being so, it allows us to work faster for you and have your book produced in the timeline we've relayed to you. If the amount of emails we received were any indication of potential phone calls, we would have to hire extra staff and raise our publishing cost along with increasing our turnaround time. Therefore, the bulk of our correspondence is done via online. |

| If you think PENDIUM will publish anything |
| Sorry, we just don't work that way. We like to make a profit just like anyone else, but we will not sacrifice quality for quantity. There are plenty of POD publishers that you can find online who will publish your book for the right price, regardless of the content and whether it's been edited or not. The literary marketplace is saturated with such POD publishers and books by them. We will not be a part of it. |
