Featured Author
Stephen Panus
What was the process like for you to write Walk On? Was it cathartic, challenging, freeing?
I initially began this process with no intention to write a book, but rather to pen a goodbye letter to my 16-year old son, Jake and to move my feelings from within me to paper. Losing a child is the worst thing that can happen to any parent and when it occurs suddenly and tragically, it feels like someone reaches into your chest and pulls out your beating heart. It’s beyond traumatic and unnatural. As the writing and time evolved it became apparent that this was less of a goodbye letter and more of a tribute to the relationship I had with Jake and continue to have with his younger brother, Liam. It was a painful and complex process of writing which required significant breaks and involved a lot of tears. In the end, I was rewarded with a book that not only could help Liam, but also many, many others. We all suffer in some way, and no matter what happens or when it happens we all must find a way to “Walk On” in our lives.
We publish two ways.
Traditional Publishing
- This option is normally only for seasoned writers (with or without an agent) with superb work and a verifiable track record of sales and marketing success. The term traditional means that the author will not pay for any development costs or fees, and will typically be offered an advance payment on royalties.
Hybrid/Co-Publishing
- This option is best for emerging writers with high-quality work desiring a professional-level publishing experience. Writers accepted into our Emerging Author Program are positioned to land a traditional deal on subsequent books. Those best suited for this program are motivated and collaborative, and receive the same level of editing, creative development and marketing as our traditional authors.
Meet your publisher.
John Köehler and Joe Coccaro talk about their passion—helping authors achieve their dreams.
