Filament do not provide Self-Publishing.  We are publishers, in the traditional sense, and members of the Independent Publisher’s Guild.  We have been publishing for 25 years and provide Commercial Publishing Services to organisations, and a range of different ‘author-centric’ business models for individual authors to meet their specific needs.  Everything we do is bespoke and individually crafted. One size does not fit all.
