I'm excited 😛 to share my publishing journey! After approaching several traditional publishers with no success, I discovered Myebook. From Dave's guidance on self-publishing to Gregg's expertise in cover design, the team made the process seamless. What seemed daunting became smooth sailing. Thanks to Myebook, I'm now a published author! 🙏💃"

Shout out to Team MYeBook, Dave and Gregg. As a publishing house, Bible Media took the plunge to start uploading our books on Amazon as printed versions and e-books. Without the help of Dave and Gregg, with all their knowledge, experience, patience and great sense of humour, it would not have been such an easy, enjoyable and informative experience. Dave and Gregg, this is only the beginning of our publishing journey together. Here's to 2025 and all the other books we will upload. 🙂

For the past few years, I’ve used Dave Henderson & team for the conversion of my books into eBooks. Dave is my contact point with My eBook (South Africa) - he is friendly, efficient, patient & extremely helpful. There is constant & transparent communication from the first contact. Even if my publishing question doesn’t relate directly to eBooks, he is always willing to point me in the right direction. His advice is pertinent & has saved me a lot of time & hassle. My eBooks have never had any issues being loaded onto the various big publishing sites and the converted content is exactly how I want it. Highly recommend this company.

The service from this company is at a particularly high standard and rose above my expectations. When I compared the finished product of my book with some local books that were published by professional publishers I felt that the editing and layout my book received from MYeBook was of better quality. Thank you to your Team for consistently over-delivering.

Fantastic services, thank you guys for your great work!!!
I worked for 3 months with Gregg and Dave on my book about Africa. I needed 17 unique sketches and an eye-catching book cover. My email enquiries were answered promptly and all my suggestions and corrections were completed to my satisfaction. In the end they delivered everything I requested. Now I have a potential bestseller, thanks to myebook.
If I ever write another book, Dave and Gregg of myebook will be my first choice for publishing advice.

Hi, I have published my first ebook Drome online and what a great experience it has been working with Dave and the team at MYeBook. From the first welcome with Dave to the finalising at the end it has been positive and exciting. I enjoyed the editing with Tracy and the cover design with Gregg and Dave has always been incredibly helpful.
Just to repeat this process is motivation enough to start on the sequel. Many thanks guys!

This is a great service! I had done some background work on publishing a book, and frankly I was left confused. Dave and his team took me through the process, step by step. They helped me get the job done well, on time and to budget. Thank you Guys, I have already shared your details with another aspiring author. Regards Prof Grafton Whyte
I contacted Dave Henderson during the Christmas vacation. Despite his office being closed, he was happy to assist, answering all my questions throughout that period. He gave me the confidence to know that I have found the right company.

I've been in the publishing industry for 20 years and this is the first company I've worked with who over-delivered on quality, deadline and professionalism. Because MYeBook offered a stress-free experience they are officially my new best thing, after my ipad pro. 😁
