Hi. I belong to a writing newsgroup and the discussion the last few days has been about how different imprints of the same publishing house won't work with the same author.
Have any of you encountered this and/or can anyone explain this?
My understanding of imprints had been that they belonged to the same publishing house and had a different focus or style. So I assumed that if you wrote one type of book it could be accepted by one imprint and then maybe a few years later your new book would fit better with another imprint. Is this not possible?
I'm unpublished, but it'd be nice to know more about imprints if I ever get that far.
