​

 

Publishing through Broken Keys Publishing & Press can include distribution of ebooks*** and Print-on-demand**** through Amazon, Kobo, Apple iBooks, Nook (Barnes & Noble), and can include, but not limited to Scribd, Thalia.de (Germany), Indigo, Angus & Richardson (Australia), Vivilo (France), Mondadori (Italy) and various other worldwide distributors. For a sample of the availability please follow this sample link.

​

Cover artwork (possibly back cover, spine, and/or front cover) will include the Broken Keys Publishing & Press logo.

​

The Services listed under Non-Publishing Services are included.

​

Cover and text layout and formatting, some degree of cover design, assignment of the title's ISBN and submission to the Library and Archives of Canada. Broken Keys Publishing & Press takes a contractually agreed upon percentage of the sales profits. There will be minimal to no upfront costs.

​

Print Editions** can be coordinated for further and better profit margins if so desired. 

​

Periodic radio and TV interviews will be set up (as Covid restrictions and lockdowns permit), as will scheduled book signing events in the larger big-box stores (ie Chapters, Indigo, Coles) as well as smaller independent bookshops, and various online promotions.

It is important that we define and classify the primary 3 mediums in which we work. 

 

**Print Edition:

A system or process whereby a set number of copies of a book or text are printed either via offset printing, lithography, or digital technology and shipped directly to the publisher and/or author for direct sales and/or inventory.

 

***Ebook:

A digital or electronic version of a printed book that can be read on a computer or handheld device designed specifically for this purpose.

It should be noted, as we transition towards the environmentally-friendly Sustainable Publishing we will be phasing out our option of ebooks by March of 2024. Some exceptions will apply.

​

****Print-on-demand, or POD:

A system or process whereby individual copies or small numbers of a book or text are printed to order and shipped directly to the end-user or customer, the copies bypassing both the publisher and/or the author. Often this service is available worldwide.
