Author Submissions

Welcome to Studio Moonfall! We want your book!

Have you published your own book and are ready to see it on store shelves so the world can get their hands on it?

I’m Donovan Scherer, the mind behind Studio Moonfall. Since starting my publishing journey in 2009, I’ve authored and illustrated over 160 books. After producing so many books that the trunk of my car could barely contain them, I realized I needed a dedicated space for them — and thus, the brick and mortar shop came into existence.

But what’s the fun in having only my books on display? And why should we let the big monopoly publishers dominate our shelves? I envisioned Studio Moonfall as a haven for the Do-It-Yourselfers like you and me.

If you’re an author challenging the giants of the publishing world, take heart. You’re not on this journey alone. We have a community of readers eagerly waiting to discover unique voices like yours.

So, tell me about yourself and your literary masterpieces, and let’s GET SHELVED!
