Where the Trade Buys is branching out into books, offering customers the chance to produce perfectly-bound A4, A5 or novel-sized volumes.
The WTTB website is set to start providing would-be authors tips on how to create and upload their work, which can be bound in thicknesses up to 600 pages and can include photography or artwork, printed using the company’s HP T250.
‘It’s extremely difficult for people to get their work published without having an agent and almost impossible to get to a leading publisher,’ said Gary Peeling, CEO of Where The Trade Buys. ‘Even a massively successful writer like JK Rowling was rejected by more than 12 publishers before she got her break, so it can be very disheartening.
‘Now we can help anyone to get their book published, even if it’s just something that may be of interest to a very small group of people such as a family which might want to share their own history.
‘Lockdown has given lots of people the time to write their book and now we’re offering this amazing opportunity to have it published.’
