PUBLISHING WITH US

Why publish with Contempo?

1. We know that getting back to you with an answer on whether or not we can work with your manuscript is of the utmost importance. It is our mission to respond to you in a timely manner.

We can also publish your book in a much quicker timeframe than most traditional publishers. This enables you to take advantage of topical issues when they are hot and release your book at the optimum time for sales.

If you are a debut author, you can kick-start your writing career sooner!

2. Your book will be published by a reputable publisher that upholds stringent quality standards for all manuscripts bearing the Contempo logo.

(FYI - your book will also be among award-winners! )

3. We have a dedicated structural editing team for those manuscripts that are close but need work to be accepted for publication.

4. We provide professional covers, designed by real-life graphic designers! And you get to have a say in what your book looks like (crazy!)

5. Professional marketing and PR campaign upon launch, including media release to all relevant media outlets and marketing to all relevant stores.
