TEST THE MARKET WITH POD
POD is a relatively inexpensive way to test the waters for your
book, allowing you to print copies as needed. If your book finds a
market and is selling, we can also offer you the opportunity to do
an offset run, greatly reducing your cost per book.
So try
one of our POD programs along with a distribution and
marketing/promotion package that is second to none, and then talk to
us about printing in quantity.
There are so many reasons to
publish your book with Llumina Press. We offer a reputation for publishing
quality books, personal service, the best author discounts in the industry
and the highest royalties (ours are based on list price). In addition, we
offer bookstore returnability through Ingram (and no loss
in royalties) as well as bookstore representation.

Mentioned in the Will
FORT LAUDERDALE, Decemeber
2006: Regrets, we've all had a few. Words thoughtlessly said,
opportunities missed, actions neglected. It's very rare that one has the chance
to put right a mistake made years before, but in her new book, Mentioned in the
Will, Paula Anne Ervin's hero does just that.
Safe in God's Love
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006:
In these turbulent times, one often feels cast out, frightened and
alone. There is a lack of many important influences that affect our
daily lives, from the simplest routine contacts to the vital
embracing of faith. In her new book, Safe in God's Love, Janet-Rae
Wells shares with us an assortment of inspiring insights and
heartwarming stories that gives one hope for the future.
Love Letters from God to God's Mighty Warriors
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: In this day and age
it's refreshing to have a book close to hand in which inspirational
thoughts uplift and cheer the reader. Just such a book is Theresa
Heflin's Love Letters from God to God's Mighty Warriors. Read, take
pleasure in, and benefit from these significant letters.
Just How Mature is That?
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: In this age of ‘gimme’ and ‘instant gratification takes way too long,’ it’s sometimes difficult to remember that adults are supposed to be grown up. Everyone, it seems, has their own agenda, their own preferences, and don’t dare get in their way! In his book, Stages of Personal Maturity: In Search of Self, John D. Reimers pegs us as we really are, and also gives us strategies on how to change that unbecoming and self-destructive behavior.
Meet the Beast
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: Perseverance is a wonderful thing, in the right hands. For an autistic youngster, perseverance and single-mindedness is a way of life. When an autistic child discovers something he likes to do, he can become astonishingly adept at it. Such is Nathaniel’s story. Dave Donch shares this marvelous true account with us in his book, Beast.
Across Time: Love Eternal
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: History is fascinating
any way you slice it. When it’s brought to life, with an enigmatic
and magical twist, it’s just that much more captivating. In his
book, Across Time: Love Eternal, O. J. Harp III brings us a story
that bridges the ages, expertly pulling you into the diverse realms
of the future as well as the distant past.
A Demon’s Choice
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: Who among us hasn’t wished for extraordinary powers at least once in their lives? Who hasn’t hungered for revenge in response to a cruel, senseless act committed by a stranger, or an acquaintance for that matter? In his book, Demon, Craig Tweedie recounts the frightening outcome when a gentle spirit is pushed too far, trampled beneath pointless hostility, and begins to fight back.
Van Gogh’s Madness Revealed
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: Madness is not an unusual result of living. Whatever the manifestation, whatever the reasoning behind it, reports are rife throughout history about such extremists. Rarely, however, are they lauded and admired. No one can doubt that Vincent Van Gogh was mad; one does not normally cut off one’s ear as a lighthearted prank, but his insanity impelled him to create some of the most magnificent art our world has ever known. In his book, Night Café, Martin Foster shares his account of compelling possibilities for Van Gogh’s lunacy.

A Letter from Mom
Fort
Lauderdale, December 2006:
Being a divorced parent is very difficult, even in this modern
do-what-you-want world. Imagine how things were many years ago when divorce
was a stigma, no matter the reason it came about. The emotional and
financial consequences of such complicated events often changes innocent
lives significantly. A Letter from Mom proves the theory as it presents
Mimi's poignant story
Finding A Safe Position
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: We've all heard the stories. From the one-room country schoolhouses (which everyone walked to through 6-foot high snow drifts – uphill – both ways) to the Drop-out 60s – Me decade 70s – Greed decade 80s, etc., there have been problems with schooling in the U.S. These days our school children are far more advanced than any other generation. They're even teaching Pre-algebra to 8 year-olds! In her new book, A Safe Position, Kathleen M. Burke investigates the schooling issues with humor and honesty.
The First Atheist
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: People are asking if it's finally fashionable to be an atheist. A few bestsellers calling for an end to organized religion or touting persuasive campaigns against faith are raising doubts. Would a Godless universe be a more joyful and rational place than one fashioned by a callous designer? These questions are not really new. Doubts have always been present, but the penalties for expressing them too dire to chance the honesty. Eric Polfliet, in his book The First Atheist, enlightens us with his riveting story.
Rejoicing in a Celebration of Love
FORT LAUDERDALE, December 2006: In this age of
‘kicked-to-the-curb’ relationships, it’s refreshing to find a young
couple who actually try to make love work. Saldanha Murphy Ridley
brings to us, in her book A Celebration of Love, a
heartwarming story of just such a couple. Join them as they
struggle, overcoming rather harsh circumstances, toward love
eternal.
