Beyond Publishing: Building the Ultimate Author Community for Independent Writers - Faith & Freedom News

The Premier Author-Centric Network for Publishing Success

In today’s crowded publishing landscape, independent authors often struggle to find reliable guidance, authentic networking opportunities, and actionable advice. Beyond Publishing Global, led by CEO Michael D. Butler of Beyond Publishing & Faith & Freedom News FFN, has created a solution that addresses these challenges head-on through their specialized Facebook community.

A Free Resource Center for Authors at Every Stage

The Beyond Publishing Global Facebook group serves as a comprehensive resource hub where authors can access valuable insights without financial barriers. Butler describes it as “a place where a new author can come get free advice and network and get coaching”—a refreshing approach in an industry often filled with costly consultation services and membership programs.

This community stands apart by offering:

Free feedback on book covers from industry professionals
Direct answers to publishing questions from experienced authors
Marketing strategies tailored to independent publishing
Distribution guidance from those who’ve navigated the complex channels
Networking opportunities with fellow authors and industry experts

Community Values: The “Go-Giver” Philosophy

The group operates on what Butler calls a “Go-Giver” mentality—members freely share expertise, contacts, and support without expectation of immediate return. This collaborative atmosphere creates a unique environment where genuine relationships form, unlike many online spaces where self-promotion dominates.

To maintain this valuable ecosystem, Beyond Publishing Global enforces clear boundaries. The group actively removes:

Unrelated promotional content (commercial products)
Inappropriate material (including erotica)
General spam and unsolicited sales content

This moderation approach ensures that conversations remain focused on helping authors succeed in their publishing journeys.

Building the World’s Most Conscious Author Community

Beyond Publishing Global has set an ambitious goal: “To become the World’s Most Conscious Online Community of Independent Authors & Book Launch Experts.” This vision encompasses creating a space where authors can realize their dreams of reaching bestseller status in the digital age.

What makes this community particularly valuable is its diversity of expertise. The group welcomes and celebrates:

Authors at every stage of their journey
Publishers of all sizes
Professional editors
Cover designers
Ghostwriters
Book marketing specialists

How Authors Can Engage

For authors seeking to maximize their experience in this community, participation is key. The group actively encourages members to share their Amazon pages, websites, and current publishing projects. This open exchange creates natural opportunities for collaboration, feedback, and growth.

The Value of Author-Centric Communities

In an era where publishing options continue to expand, communities like Beyond Publishing Global provide critical infrastructure for independent authors. By fostering connections between writers and specialized service providers, these groups help bridge knowledge gaps and provide pathways to publishing success that might otherwise remain inaccessible.

For authors seeking genuine community, actionable advice, and supportive networking, Beyond Publishing Global represents an increasingly rare find in the digital landscape—a space truly dedicated to author success without hidden agendas or excessive monetization.

Through this author-centric approach, Butler and his team are reshaping how independent authors connect, learn, and ultimately succeed in today’s complex publishing marketplace.
