Ballast Books is a leading, full-service hybrid publisher innovating the way authors bring their books and ideas to the world. We've flipped the model: instead of working for a publisher, we we work for you (the author). We handle all aspects of book creation, including editorial and manuscript development (full ghostwriting to basic copy-editing); book design (cover, jacket, interior); marketing and PR; and world-wide distribution. Going it alone as an author can be daunting. And today's traditional publishing model can overlook brilliant works, resulting in unpublished books that never meet a deserving and waiting audience. There is a better and highly effective alternative way to bring your book(s) to life and to the widest audience possible. Hybrid publishing provides a new level of empowerment and profitability to authors. And Ballast Books is at the forefront of the hybrid publishing revolution.
