About Bill Benitez
I began publishing books in 1977. In 1978 I founded Rehab Notes Library to publish books on housing rehabilitation for communities across the United States.
Since then I have written, published, edited, and designed books for my own companies, for Barbara Frances, and for many independent authors.
In 2007 I founded Positive Imaging, LLC to help writers publish professionally while maintaining ownership of their work.

Today my focus is helping writers take the simplest path to publication—starting with PDF eBooks and building from there.
I believe every writer deserves the opportunity to publish without unnecessary delays, gatekeepers, or loss of control. That belief became Publish Without Permission—a practical system for creating, publishing, and selling books directly to readers.
This allows and encourages writers to publish and market their books without the constraints and delays caused by gatekeepers like KDP Amazon and others.
Why Start With A PDF eBook
Because it's the fastest way to answer the most important question.
Do readers care?
Instead of spending months creating multiple editions before hearing from a single reader, you can publish a professional PDF eBook quickly, gather real feedback, and decide what comes next.
If readers respond and your PDF has proven itself, it can easily become a Kindle book, paperback, hardcover, or audiobook.
Start simply.
Learn quickly.
Grow wisely.
You don't need permission to begin.
You only need the willingness to finish.
Publish Without Permission is our primary publishing program for writers who want to publish quickly, keep control of their work, and build direct relationships with readers.
