It has been proven in recent years, and even more definitively in recent months, that publishers must embrace a mindset of innovation and flexibility. If we lack the desire to provide openness and translucency our authors will look elsewhere for answers.

We strive for evergreen partnerships with our authors and believe the success of that lies within providing ongoing support for them at every stage of the publishing process. Harvesting solid lines of communication contributes to the longevity of success for all those involved.

In seeking to enhance opportunities for education, support, and guidance, we have been hosting our own live Ask Me Anything “AMA” video sessions and inviting authors to present specific questions they have about their publishing journey. We are finding this approach to be well received by our authors and we enjoy being on this ongoing road together. As David Hancock frequently reminds us all, “the journey is the goal” and that stands true now more than ever.
