About

About Armin Lear Press

Dedicated Excellence in Publishing

Our goal is publishing books connecting people with ideas that make our lives richer, more fulfilling, happier.

Our History

More Than Just Books

Founded by a successful author, Armin Lear focuses on partnership with authors. Our editorial and design standards are high, and we strive to give personal attention to each author and agent we partner with.

Genres of interest span the entire range of non-fiction.

We have a special interest in books containing practical advice on improving the quality of life. This includes books about business, career development, current events, health, literacy, lifestyle, and more.

Biographies, history, memoirs–important, true narratives–also populate our list.

We have also ventured into the arena of controversial discussions about the quality of democracy in the United States and in the countries of our allies and will be issuing more titles with provocative content in the coming weeks and months.

We are excited to have launched fiction as well, and find ourselves drawn to intrigue, in both contemporary thrillers and fantasy. Regardless of genre, though, novels with characters who are alive on the page and plots that wake us up invariably attract our attention.

Another area of interest is human sexuality. We are publishing titles with substantial value in intimate relationships.

I had Armin Lear publish my book and using their services was the best decision! I cannot tell you what a relief it was to have them in my corner helping me through every step of the process.”

What We Do

Our Community

People in publishing! Readers, authors, agents, colleagues, marketing professionals–anyone who cares about the quality and availability of books.

An important part of our community is also organizations such as The Authors Guild, Independent Book Publishers Association, and (yes) The Explorers Club, to which some of our authors belong.

Our community is international and multi-lingual. We have had a strong presence at the Frankfurt Book Fair for two years in a row, and will be back again in 2023 in the International Hall. We also worked closely with the Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA) to have book signings and title visibility at the American Library Association conference in 2022–and aim to be back in upcoming years.

About Armin Lear Press

Join Our Journey

We now have a robust four-year record of publishing! We have a traditional publishing model, giving a small advance when it makes sense, but most of our authors don’t want that.

Instead, most of our authors choose a profit-sharing model of publishing with us to increase their royalty percentage and control over rights. Even if that is the preferred route to success, Armin Lear will only publish works that have met our standards for quality and gone through our editorial process, which is as demanding as any in the business.

Not unlike very large publishers, we want to see well-written manuscripts that stand the test of time. At the same time, we realize that some subject matter experts have tremendous ideas, but a limited ability to express them. In a case like that, we will help an author find the right editor or co-author to prepare the manuscript for publication.

We welcome authors who are on their way up, with strong endorsements from colleagues and the foundation of a good platform. This sets us apart from many other publishers who require that you come to them already “famous.” We respect your efforts if you’re on your way to millions of social media followers, but don’t have them quite yet.

Testimonials

What Our Clients Are Saying

Armin Lear Press has many authors under it’s umbrella. See what our clients are saying.

"I wholeheartedly endorse Armin Lear as an outstanding book publisher. Their team is exceptionally easy to work with, providing guidance and support every step of the way. As a first-time author, I couldn't have asked for a better partner in bringing my #PACE vision to life. Maryann’s professionalism, experience, and dedication makes them a top choice for any aspiring writer."

"I am so happy to endorse Armin Lear! After having to suddenly switch publishing companies, the Armin Lear team jumped in quickly and were responsive in all it takes to get an established book updated and selling strongly! I would highlight timely responsive communication, creativity, and ongoing support. I am so grateful for this group"

"If you are looking for a partner to publish your book, look no further. Armin Lear is a great match. I worked closely with the Armin Lear lead – Maryann Karinch, who truly knows the business- design, pricing, printing, editorial, marketing, advertising and is not shy to coach and counsel you to take your masterpiece and further refine it. Armin Lear’s organizational skills, attention to detail and sense of urgency help you create a final product that you can be proud of. Armin Lear – the team you need and deserve."

"It has been a real pleasure working with Maryann Karinch and her professional Armin Lear staff. First rate. Highly recommended!"

"Maryann showed me that I was allowed to be a writer. Simply put, she saw something in me from the beginning that I didn't see in myself. She never gave up. And she refused to let me give up on myself. Her editorial team helped me find my words without instilling doubt in my work, gently yet persuasively pushing me forward to complete my manuscript. Even at their busiest, they were never far away when I needed a kind word or a helpful suggestion. Through all stages of publishing, editing, and especially marketing my book, they have excelled and made it a habit to create a friendship, not just a work partner. This friendship is essential for a first-time author. When it finally came to the physical creation of the book, her layout and cover design team created something that even my creative mind could not fabricate."

"Maryann helped change my life. That's a big statement but it is true. First of all she believed in my project which contains ideas that are known as disruptive technology. So she was able to think outside of the box.

Then our relationship moved to another level when we started editing the book. Her insights, her ideas, her cooperation, her editing skills and her availability were outstanding on every level. In my mind she represents the epitome of what an editor should be. Had she not been involved in my project, I doubt very seriously my book would have turned out as well as it did. You should count your lucky stars if you are ever fortunate to have her as your publisher and editor. It's your good karma coming back to you."
