You've poured your heart and soul into writing your book. Now let us help you publish it.

Welcome to Pants Press

Publishing a book can feel overwhelming. Editing, cover design, formatting, metadata, Amazon, IngramSpark, audiobooks—there's a lot to figure out. You don't have to do it alone.

At Pants Press, bestselling author Scott McCormick personally guides every project from manuscript to finished book. Whether you need editing, a professional cover, interior formatting, publishing, or audiobook production, we'll create a publishing plan that's right for your book and your budget.

Best of all, you keep 100% of your rights and 100% of your royalties. We simply help you publish the best book possible.

We don't publish thousands of books a year. We publish a handful at a time, giving each one the attention it deserves.

Publishing your book should be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life

Scott McCormick

Hi, I'm Scott McCormick, and I started Pants Press because I knew there had to be a better way.

Traditional publishing can take years and offers no guarantees. Many self-publishing companies charge a fortune, make big promises, and treat authors like just another number.

When I published my own books, I learned the process inside and out. Soon, other authors began asking me to help them publish theirs, too. That's how Pants Press was born.

When you hire Pants Press, you're hiring me.

I personally edit, design, format, publish, and oversee every book that comes through my door. Every manuscript is personally reviewed, every cover is carefully crafted, and every publishing decision is made with the same care I'd give my own books.

I don't publish thousands of books every year. I intentionally work with a limited number of authors so every project receives the time, attention, and expertise it deserves.

If you're looking for someone who knows the publishing world—and genuinely cares about helping you create a book you'll be proud to share—I would love to help.

I've been where you are. I know what it feels like to finish a manuscript and wonder, "What now?" That's why I started Pants Press.

Scott,

I just wanted to take a moment to sincerely thank you for all of your guidance, patience, and support throughout the journey of publishing my very first children’s book, Am I That Different?

Publishing a book was something I had only dreamed about, and you helped turn that dream into a reality. Thank you for answering my many questions, encouraging me through the process, and helping bring my vision to life.

I’ll always be grateful for your support in making this milestone possible. Thank you again for everything, and I wish you continued success in helping other authors achieve their dreams.

With sincere gratitude,
