Genre Focus Announced for 2017

12/9/2016

 
We've learned a lot in 2016. Don't be put off by the tone of that sentence -- the year has been good. It's taught us firsthand the power of a concentrated image, which is why there are going to be a few changes going forward in 2017.

We've come a long way from when we hit the ground running in 2008. For the longest time, our philosophy has been to publish "uncommonly good" reading. That's not changing. Quality is king. We also remain devoted to bringing the edgy side of literature. After all, we are the publisher with a defense contractor's name -- we aren't afraid to push boundaries. We gladly take on authors who share our view, where more conservative publishers would balk.

In 2015 and especially in 2016, we tested new waters, and we've found what we're best at. That's why, in 2017, we will be focusing our publishing efforts in the five genres that best suit our readers and our brand. Those genres are:

Fantasy: From high fantasy to urban fantasy in any time period or setting, dark fantasy, and hack-and-slash.
Sci-fi: Hard science fiction and space opera, space thrillers, time travel, alien contact and the like.
Horror: Suspense, slashers, monster horror, contemporary horror and so on.
Comedy: Contemporary or genre-blending humor (horror-comedy, fantasy-comedy, etc.)
Thrillers:
 Action, mystery, gritty crime drama, detective stories.

Now more than ever before, we are positioned to roll out great new books by seasoned and starting authors from all over the globe. As our head editor, Ramiro Perez, announced last week (click here for announcement), we have over one million words of new submissions in our queue. If you're a fan great books, stick around. If you're an author looking to publish with us, 2017 holds great promise.
