Book Publishers
Book publishers acquire, edit, design, produce and market physical and digital titles across fiction, nonfiction, children's, textbooks and professional categories. For a house that accepts manuscript submissions, contracts authors, manages editorial and design cycles, prints or prepares ebooks, and sells through distributors and direct channels, the specialists turn submissions into evaluated proposals, proposals into signed contracts and production schedules, schedules into edited and designed files, and finished files into print runs, ebook conversions, marketing plans and royalty statements. Editorial judgment, cover approvals and rights decisions stay with the publisher.
