Publish With Us

If you are interested in publishing with Nimble Books, read the following pages first:

  1. The Nimble Books Marketing Playbook v 3.0
  2. The Nimble Books Standard Contract
  3. Books in Print & Forthcoming Books [under construction]

Note that Nimble Books publishes in two different, and complementary, formats:

  1. Traditional format books — long form B&W interior, mostly text — 50,000 to 150,000 words.
  2. “Nimble” books – 32-48 pp, 8.5 x 8.5, color interior, 7,000 to 13,000 words with ~ 20 full-page images. This template helps you plan the 32-48 page layout.

The business model is the same for either format: no inventory, no advances, no returns, better royalties. It’s the wave of the future because it fixes a lot of things that are broken with traditional publishing. HarperCollins recently started testing something similar.

Proposals for “Nimble” format books should be submitted via the form on that page.
