  • Recurring editorial review and quality management.
  • Premium design and distribution.
  • 20% royalty, sales calculated on MRP plus 20 free copies.

A good fit if your manuscript fits our editorial guidelines, and you want a proposed, and quality-controlled publishing decision model.

Self-Publishing (IIP)

Our primary and most flexible publishing model.
  • The author manages timelines, positioning, and presentation.
  • End-of-service publishing, including but not limited to, editorial review, design, distribution, and marketing.
  • By using the Author Dashboard, authors are able to operate with full transparency.
  • High control of pricing, updates, and marketing.

Self-publishing is a great fit when you want a fast-launching process, complete creative nuances, and an individualized launch plan.
