Frequently Asked Questions
Who are you?
Gwyllt a Rhydd (Wild and Free) is book imprint of Insight Illustration Ltd. Based in Mid Wales, we have been producing book jackets and music packaging for many, many years.
What kind of books do you publish?
We aim to publish poetry, fiction and non-fiction books.
Where can you find Gwyllt a Rhydd books?
Depending on the authors choices, books will be available globally through Print On Demand, or localy in independent bookshops through self distribution. Traditional UK distribution would require an active sales team selling books to book shops, handling sales and returns – and warehousing, which all costs significant sums. For UK-wide availability in smaller scale you have to turn to Print On Demand or if you’re prepared to do it – self promotion and direct sales. Our current books are available locally through book shops in mid-Wales, as they were published traditionaly and distributed by the authors and family. They’re both selling very well.
Are there any standards books must meet to be published?
We want to assist you in smoothly transitioning from draft to publication. As a self-publishing author, it is usually your responsibility to get the book into good shape for publication, but we want to help with that! We can proofread and/or edit your manuscript and format/typeset the book file. In publishing first impressions really count. The value we bring is producing a book that is classy inside and out – and that is why Gwyllt a Rhydd will always be involved in the design of your book’s cover.
You will own ALL your book rights and royalties. Creative work linked to the book will be available to you for anything related to the book, for free – including if you plan to produce merchandice.
