Hello - This is your newest cooler mate: John Patrick Grace. I'm exec. editor of Publishers Place, Inc., a 501-c-3 not-for-profit publishing consortium, 945 4th Av. Bay 206 Huntington, WV 25701 See our site (now being revamped) at
www.publishersplace.org Also the owner of Grace Associates, LLC, Editors & Publishers. Same address. We are in the process of folding the assets of G-A into Publishers Place.
We publish usually on author-subsidized basis but we are far, far, far from being "a vanity press." We put our authors through the proverbial hell n' high water before they can be published under one of our imprints. Sample books (check also on Amazon) Father's Troubles by Carter Taylor Seaton, To Love Mercy by Frank S. Joseph. We also develop and pitch books to traditional publishers. See The Inner Game of Entrepreneuring by Ronald E. Guzik, The Pretenders: Gifted People who Have Difficulty Learning by Barbara P. Guyer, and White Witchdoctor by John A. Hunt, M.D. We also publish anthologies of poetry from West Virginia poets, and soon we hope, anthologies in other genres. On the art/gift side see: Cat Book, Dog Book, and Saving Magic Places by Emily Eve Weinstein. Thanks for letting me be part of the forum. J.P. Grace
Stacey lots of information here enjoy your stay!
