Product Information

Key is a man without a past. The phrase "We're going to do wonderful things to you" haunted his thoughts. He can get a maximum of four hours of sleep. He had gone through the saw pressed against his skin over and over. Now, he is used to it. He wants to put the past to rest. Not all publishers can afford to pay an advance, but at the very minimum the publisher should bear the cost of editing, cover design, printing and distribution. The author should not pay for the publishing process. Think of it like this: legitimate publishers take risks on your behalf. Publishing a book is a risk – it costs a great deal of money and takes a lot of time and energy. Publishers will take on that risk when they are confident that they can sell enough copies of a book to recoup their investment. If a publisher asks YOU to take some of the risk by paying to publish, it may well mean that they don’t plan to sell a single copy of your book for you – and why would they? They’ve already made a profit by fleecing you!

One day, Shio's path crossed with Key and he ended up on the wrong side of the wall. Shio and Key work together to find out the truth. Will they be successful? We publish weird little books that might not find a home elsewhere. We don’t publish general collections of poetry. All of our projects have a very specific focus or narrative.Shio is just a cog in the corporate machine, sleepwalking through his tech-support job until the day he crosses paths with Key and ends up on the wrong side of the wall. Now, agents from the feared Med-Sec police are gunning for them both. It has something to do with Key’s true identity—if only he had a clue who he really is. However, we ask that you only submit a proposal if you have at some point supported the press. This includes: Descending to the lower levels is nobody's desire, yet Shio found himself on the less esteemed side of the wall, where he crossed paths with Key. Key insisted that someone of Shio's caliber didn't belong on that side of the wall, hinting at secrets they had yet to unearth. You should be immediately wary of any publisher who wishes to print your book without editing or proofreading it. The profits of legitimate publishers rest on the quality of the books they publish, and so they will do everything they can to ensure that they are the best they can be. Vanity publishers don’t care about the quality of the books they publish, as the only people to whom they will sell are the family and friends of the author. Vanity publishers will, therefore, rarely bother with thorough editing or proofreading. Don’t part with any money! This bi-annual competition is open to short story writers world-wide but entries must be written in English.

One fateful day, as Shio was on his way home from work, he boarded a train and witnessed two men engaged in a heated argument, which escalated to the sound of a gunshot. Curiosity compelled Shio to tail these men, and the reasons for his actions unravel in the story, raising questions about potential danger. Getting an agent can be such an impossible task that your instinct – when one replies to you brimming over with enthusiasm and praise for your work – might be to jump at the opportunity. But be careful: hidden fees could be just over the horizon. Legitimate agents usually make their money by taking a reasonable chunk out of any money that they make by selling your work. If they want paying up front, consider the possibility that they don’t plan on actually selling your work at all. Writing competitions These companies work with self-publishing authors to help them bring their books to completion. They may offer editing, proofreading, printing or marketing services in exchange for a fee. Reputable companies will be honest about their role, and will not pretend to be publishers. If you’ve decided that you want to self-publish, but don’t know where to get started (and don’t want to take the time to learn) these companies could be right for you. How a vanity publisher typically worksBefore sending in a proposal, please consider whether a very small press is a good fit for your project. We publish work that is intentionally niche. You may wish to seek a larger or more mainstream publisher. What we’re looking for
