The world is looking for solutions. At Schiel & Denver Book Publishers, one of the reasons we invest so deeply in sustainable publishing methods, and cherish our independent authors and talented writers so much, is that you have taken the time to make the changes needed to achieve a more shared, secure and sustainable future through your work. Whether you’re a children’s author giving a child that first love of learning to read, a poet, thriller writer or Christian author; we pledge our support to your continued literary brilliance in the fantastic independent books that you pen, and on your admirable personal commitment to your writing.

The fact is that world needs more writers. The literary output of the U.S. can never be too prolific. Sustainable development is a global imperative: over one billion people lack access to food, electricity and drinking water; a majority of our ecosystems are in decline; and there is an enormous deficit in decent jobs, especially for youth globally. Climate change will only compound these challenges – and threatens progress, peace and stability in societies and global markets – including books and publishing.

The book publishing industry is changing beyond all recognition, and for the independent author, getting your book into the hands of reachers in a timely fashion with expert speed to market, has become an increasingly dominant critical factor – where once publishers and authors could rely on long-tail sales and word of mouth. Schiel & Denver Book Publishers is therefore committed to professional book distribution into all markets, on behalf of our authors, and we are pleased to be opening up new channels in Australasia, Asia, China, Africa and Brazil, (outside our main infrastructure in North America and Europe) as a means to set our authors apart in the market with greater numbers of books printed, more sales and more royalties generated per ISBN title.

In a time when reaching agreement on critical issues is proving difficult and divisive — whether at home domestically in America or on the international platform — Schiel & Denver‘s comprehensive book publishing strategies will continue to give independent authors a voice, with dedicated marketing to the retail buying units of stores like Barnes & Noble, Amazon and Books-A-Million, to ensure your voice is heard.

Our corporate sustainability is charging ahead as a collaborative and innovative space for action based on the risks and opportunities at hand. After more than a decade of building up principles and partnerships, we stand on the brink of unleashing global business action as a main-stream, independent book publisher championing author’s intellectual output on a massive scale.

Schiel & Denver only succeeds when our authors thrive with successful book sales derived from worldwide market access and expert distribution to major bookstores. Making this happen is our enduring commitment: more engagement, more innovation, more collaboration.

New Career Opportunities Daily: The best jobs in media.

Although some disgruntled parties in the book publishing industry are claiming that Amazon may forgo a temporary loss of up to $11 for every tablet of the new Amazon Kindle Fire that the Seattle based company sells, with sales so high and climbing, it is unlikely this will hurt the giant online retailer. Amazon has brought a new dimension to book publishers across America, with more and more well known traditional authors self publishing their work and turning to book publishing services. It remains to be seen what will be left of the traditional book publishing industry 5 years from now as a direct result of Amazon’s pioneering book publishing developments. Even book retailers like Barnes & Noble may struggle to keep up with the pace.

Larry Kirshbaum has made his first major acquisition since being hired to run Amazon Publishing, signing Timothy Ferriss' next book in the 4-Hour series.

Kirschbaum bought world rights in print, enhanced digital and audio from Stephen Hanselman of LevelFiveMedia. Ferriss' books were published in the UK by Vermilion. The 4-Hour Chef is expected to be released in April 2012.
