Pioneering Ebook Publisher TheWriteDeal to Launch Self-Publishing Series
New York, 03/08/2012 -- Groundbreaking e-book publisher TheWriteDeal announced today that the company will be launching its Blue Leaf self-publishing series later this month. Blue Leaf presents readers with editor-selected offerings in all genres, in both English and Spanish.
TheWriteDeal is a talent discovery platform for the digital age. It presents original works in English and Spanish by new writing talents and professional authors. Established in New York City by professional editors and writers, TheWriteDeal curates and sells e-books and digital book excerpts from its trademarked e-leaf series on the independent e-book retail platform www.thewritedeal.org. The company integrates radical e-book technologies and registration standards to present works of any length or at any stage of completion, to be read on the go or at leisure on a reading device or computer. There are no print options.
The new Blue Leaf series marks an important step in the publisher’s growth. It presents a selection of self-published works, providing authors professional editorial and marketing tips in addition to a non-exclusive e-book retail platform.
TheWriteDeal gives the self-published author an unparalleled opportunity to minimize investment of time, money, and resources, and maximize exposure to publishers and agents to seek print options. Authors earn a generous 60% of net receipts while their work remains on the site, and they retain full ownership of their work.
“We offer the e-reading audience superior e-books selected by professional editors and specified to their needs using social media metrics,” says Irene Schneider, the TheWriteDeal’s senior editorial adviser. “We extend the reach of authors and their audience into the digital landscape in a way that the mainstream self-publishing model only rarely accomplishes. We introduce traditional print publishers to writers of the highest quality and appeal.”
TheWriteDeal retains six-month exclusive rights to market selected works accepted into its in-house collection with further development by its editors. After six months, the company retains non-exclusive rights, freeing authors to sell their works elsewhere as they like.
“Our model nurtures a broad class of highly marketable authors out of the pool of original talents. These are writers without professional outlets, self-starting authors with great promise,” says Managing Editor Kyra Ryan. “We look for writing that’s skillful, accessible, and edgy, and most of all, fresh and original. “
Acceptance for publication on TheWriteDeal guarantees readers, as well as a network of agents and publishers that an author’s work has been accepted as worthy of publication by a team of professionals. It establishes or broadens each author’s readership, an invaluable asset in the quest to turn writing into a gainful career.
