[FONT=Calibri,Calibri]P.O.W.E.R. came to be in response to the many writers in search of a traditional publishing opportunity. Through P.O.W.E.R. our primary objective is to serve as a platform to achieve greater publishing success for Authors less exposed. And by less exposed we are referring to the 97% - 98% of Authors whose manuscripts are rejected each year by publishers.
