How we publish

We publish written and audio content as digital media and on soft/hardcover on demand. We do not stock hundreds of copies of our different titles. Our experience as eMagazine publishers has helped understand the potential of trial-and-buy strategy. We do not go for trail-and-failure.

Once the submitted material is ready for online publication, we assess its market value and ideal marketing strategy. Sometimes we will publish free work from individual artists to let visitors taste the quality of the artists work. The other material will e downloadable for a small charge ranging from 20p (i.e. a song) to £20 depending on the material it self (i.e. eBooks).

Once the demand starts picking up for digital versions, we know that printed copies might be of interest to readers/listeners. They will be able to order a copy which is then printed on demand by our printing partner. Printing costs range between £3 and £10 depending on colour, images, number of pages, binding etc.

The artist will get a royalty fee per sold copy.

Become an artist, too!

Those of you who might feel confident enough to try yourself at writing poetry, books (novels, short stories, comics, comedy, special topics) or music, we would love to encourage you to submit your work.

How to help us help you?

First email us with brief info on your material you would like to have published. We will then tell you in which format to deliver it to us for free evaluation.

The best format is word format doc, for images we like jpg or alternative could be adobe's pdf format. For music we recommend the MP3 format.

Please limit the attachment on emails to 5 MB. Later on we will provide you with an account to our artists work desk where you can upload files and gain valuable free of charge advice.
