Testimonials — Story Monsters®

“What a privilege and honor to work with Linda Radke and Team in the publishing of The Tiniest Tumbleweed! From the first phone call, I knew I wanted this company to publish my book. Linda Radke’s business ethics are absolutely noteworthy. Every aspect of publishing exceeded my expectations. Linda was directly involved in each step of the process from contract inception to delivery of the books from the printer. She drove the choice of Alex Lopez as my illustrator. He’s an amazingly talented man, and I am so very grateful for her choice! Radke is by far one of the best marketing experts I’ve ever known. This sweet little book has won international awards thanks to the marketing exposure she supplied! The team continues to support my needs with each printing — six printings to be exact. There are no words to express my gratitude. Radke and Team will definitely be involved with my next project! I would choose none-other!!! “

“Jamie’s Journey Cancer from the Voice of a Sibling would not have become a published book without the expertise and guidance of Linda Radke. She is a passionate, professional and dedicated advocate for authors, so she can deliver the best books to the public.

Linda believed in my vision of validating siblings on the cancer journey. Throughout the process, Story Monsters included me in the process and valued my input. Without Linda, the perfect illustrator would not have been found to bring my words to life.

The marketing tools provided exposure for the book, while the plush puppet, Speckles, a character in the book, has delighted readers at book events and presentations.

A key aspect is the book trailer!

A truly important aspect of publishing with Linda is she is always there for you, advocating for you, and making sure your book is receiving the love and care it deserves. And this continues long after your book is published.

When considering publishing a book, know that Linda and her team at Story Monsters want you to succeed. The decision is truly easy! Publish with Linda and Story Monsters!”

My name is Cynthia Kern OBrien, and I am a Story Monster!

I started my journey with Story Monsters in April 2020 with what I thought was going to be a 15-minute phone call that turned into making a wonderful new friend. If you are new to this industry, a new author, new at self-publishing or you just need an infusion of fun and positivity, I highly recommend reaching out to Linda Radke and the marketing services of Story Monsters. Linda will ask you a million questions, which were especially beneficial to me. Do not be afraid to ask her questions in return, it is amazing what you can learn! Trust her insights, suggestions, and direction, she knows what she is doing, and she genuinely cares about your success. Unique about Linda and the Story Monsters team is they are genuinely excited about your project and passionate about wanting YOU to succeed.

The first project was to update my logo and branding. It was very collaborative, and the outcome exceeded my expectations. I was at a book fair, and multiple people approached me and said it was because they recognized my logo on social media! Not only was it exciting, it also confirmed I found the right partnership.

I am so blessed and fortunate to have partnered with Linda Radke and the Story Monsters team on my current book, Marky the Magnificent Fairy. The entire process has been thoughtful and collaborative from start to finish. It has been an emotional journey and a passion project for all of us, and the team fell in love with Marky as I did. The illustrations brought Marky to life, along with the love and care given to the storyline by the editing team. Every single detail has been considered to ensure the best quality product and outcome.

Placing Marky in the hands of my “magnificent” team at Story Monsters was the right decision.

This is more than just an endorsement; this is also a grateful thank you.

“Advertising with [Story Monsters] has been the smartest move I have ever made.”
