[Resolved]  Bookleaf Publishing India — Self-publishing scam

I entered a writing challenge hosted by BookLeaf Publishing in November of 2022. Since then, BookLeaf Publishing has been stringing me along for months regarding when my book will be listed on Amazon for purchase as a paperback. My contact at the company said that there were technical issues, but that I can expect the listing to be up in mid-June, but now says they will be out of office dealing with personal matters until the second week of July. My eBook is listed on the publisher's website, but that is only half of what the company says they will do. It is now June 2023 and paperback copies of my book are still unavailable.

Complaint marked as Resolved 
Update, 29 September 2026: It has been about 3.5 years since my original review. Since then, BookLeaf eventually made my book available on Amazon Canada and UK, as well as Barnes and Nobel in the US. Today I finally received contact from the company and the royalties from my book sales were received. I have been offered complimentary sevices by BookLeaf and am deciding whether or not to move forward with the offer.
