Just how it takes a village to raise a child,
we believe, to bring a perfect book into the world
and to its deserving readers,
it takes the support and skill of many more
than just the author.

After you pour your words out, the most crucial leg of the journey begins for your manuscript. It is  now time for it to make rounds of the many  magic mirrors–the editor’s lens, the copy editor’s scrupulous gaze, the designer, artist, printer, distributor and more. Feels like a lot? It is. But that is why you are here. To let us be “the village” to raise your book. And mind you, we are indeed a village and not a city–we are a close knit community of passionate editors, highly skilled copyeditors, designers and artists who would help you at every step–from tackling dilemmas of linguistic choices (“Is this the right word?!”), to catch the comma splices and hanging phrases lurking about to make the copy error free and flawless, design  the  cover that reveals just enough soul of what’s inside to intrigue your future reader… In short–  to bring your book to its best self.
