“He knows his stuff and their passion for design and beautiful books is resonant and profound.
Both clear and empathetic; helping find the best production options at a great price.”

"I had a manuscript and ideas. Michael took my words and images and turned them into a book. I now have my book in my hands and I like it. It looks and feels good - the way I wanted it, not according to someone else's ideas.
Getting it done required twists, turns and changes. Through it all Michael responded promptly and clearly - listening. With patient attention he brought the images I had in mind gradually into form.
For anyone who is looking for someone who can create with you - not just for you but with you, I recommend Michael Pietrobon at Foglio Custom Book Specialists."
- Lynne Gordon-Muendel, author of At the Heart of Infinity

“My first book was published by a publishing company and all I had to do was submit my manuscript and they did everything else to bring it to print. I decided to self-publish my next book and never realized the choices I had to make and the expenses I would have to incur. One of my best choices was to engage the services of Michael Pietrobon of Foglio Publishing. He did an outstanding job of compiling my book and transforming my text into a beautiful work of art. He worked with me every step of the way with professional advice and patience. I am very grateful for his services and highly recommend them to anyone who is considering self-publishing and printing their book.”
-Alan Bryce, author of Here Comes the Sun

“Michael at Foglio helped me realize my dream of presenting my daughter with a book version of her PhD thesis on graduation day.
He was a delight to work with, took a personal interest, designed a unique, artful and perfectly suited cover and promised and delivered the result by the necessary date. All at a very competitive price. A gorgeous softcover, which presented her work beautifully included dynamic great chapter headings and organization plus terrific photos and artwork. She is thrilled with it! I’m a retired librarian after almost 50 years on the job so know a bit about books. Thank you Michael!”
