Our approach

Traditional, self-publishing or hybrid: three publishing models

Traditional

Publisher covers all costs and pays royalties, potentially with an advance. Applied to select titles that align with our book series or projects not initiated by us.

Self-Publishing

Author keeps complete creative control, 100% of copyrights and royalties. We provide professional services while you retain full ownership of your work.

Partnership

Recommended

Joint venture approach for books we create and propose to potential authors. Our preferred model for special interest content and new market development.
