Answers for your next step.
What types of books does IME Publishing Group™ work with?
IME Publishing Group™ supports nonfiction, fiction, memoir, and children’s books. The editorial, design, and publication plan depends on the material, reader, and agreed scope.
What does hybrid publishing involve at IME?
Authors invest in professional services defined in a written proposal. Review the deliverables, fees, rights, responsibilities, and schedule before authorizing a project.
Which publishing and marketing services are available?
Services include book development, editorial support, cover and interior design, production, distribution planning, marketing, media preparation, and book-to-screen assessment. Your agreement identifies the work included.
Is a film or streaming deal included with publishing?
A screen project requires its own rights assessment, creative scope, budget, and audience plan. Publishing a book does not guarantee financing, a production deal, buyer acceptance, or platform placement.
How do I start a project conversation?
