While AI is an exciting advancement for some applications, we do not believe it capable of producing the insightful or creative books a human mind can. After all, it trains on already-existing material to compile and regurgitate information. Perhaps one day we'll all be living in an AI-generated infoscape, but we aim to avoid it as long as possible.

No. Our authors may use AI to supplement their creative or organizational processes (such as brainstorming or outlining), but we have a strict no-AI policy for a book's content. This keeps all our books the product of an actual human mind.

No. Although, we may hire cover designers who supplement their workflow with the use of AI tools to quickly iterate on design ideas. Therefore, certain elements of our graphics may utilize generative AI in its creative process, but be polished and finalized by a human. (No six-fingered characters here.)

Parts of the Bible, the U.S. Constitution, and even Lord of the Rings come back as AI-generated with popular detectors.

Keep in mind, AI is trained on human content. Therefore, it will often align with someone's style of writing, and that style will be "detected AI" as such. It's important to realize that AI detectors are often inaccurate, and likely always will be without any metadata to analyze.

The most important thing is becoming familiar with an author's writing style over a long period of time, or through long excerpts (longer than fit into AI detectors' systems), and comparing that to the incoherent drivel AI currently produces. It's one thing to not connect with or enjoy an author's style, but that doesn't mean they use AI. It's just as likely AI uses them.

No. We only publish high-quality books under agreements designed to align our motivations toward their potential long-term success. Publishing has evolved, and it's now easier than ever to publish a book on platforms like Amazon, Apple Books, Kobo, and more. Learn more about self-publishing here [page under construction].

We offer two types: traditional publishing, and our own in-house collaborative method used to launch aspiring authors. Learn more about opportunities to publish with us here [page under construction].

Amazon is the largest book market by far, controlling approximately 80% of eBook sales and 65% of online print book sales. Because of this, we partner with them for some of our books for a balance between the widest reach, highest royalties, and logistical ease.

We use market research as well as our own plans to decide if an exclusivity agreement would be in each specific book's best interests. As eBook exclusivity agreements with Amazon are short 90-day terms, we have the flexibility to frequently reassess and decide whether or not to continue after a term has ended.
