History:
The books of fiction and non fiction we have published have been described as unique in the sense that they have what it takes to make readers remember the ‘experience’ of reading a book. Our books of fiction are fast paced, full of suspense and drama, whilst the books of non fiction have been inspirational, powerful, and insightful, in addition to being well written, all of which translate into great sales and best seller potential.
We encourage authors to consider the following factors:
Theme: books that focus on contemporary themes that have been determined to generate, hold and sustain reader interest.
Approach:The approach is premised on the notion of making the reader comfortable with the subject matter right from the beginning. In other words, our books tend to be about people and places that readers can identify with.
Style:We encourage our authors to present their material and to write in styles that reflect and or relate realistically to the people and places in their works.
We are poised now to make the transition from operating as a small publisher to a multi-faceted versatile multi-media publishing company with books and multi-media products that appeal to a wide cross section of people and the market place.
We specialize in ‘unique books on unique subjects. By unique books we mean books written by people who have specialized knowledge and information on the subjects they write about, such expertise and knowledge derived mostly from personal experiences. Books in this category we have already published, marketed and promoted include
