Eureka's Manifesto
We prefer...
- Empowered readers choosing what gets published above conventional publishers where a select small group decides.
- That authors see an answer regarding the publication of their work grow, rather than simply await a refusal letter that gives no guidance.
- That more authors are granted the opportunity to see their work in print, rather than singularly relying on the power of short-sighted mainstream market forces to decide what gets published.
- That readers receive more of the money that usually befall the publisher, rather than seeing the publisher as the main benefactor from an author's work.
- That publication is a social choice utilizing social media, rather than small enclaves of people controlling choice of culture.
In stating the above, we do not say that conventional alternatives to our preferences are wrong, we simply say that we believe our vision for the future of publication is superior.
If YOU agree with one or more of the above, welcome to Eureka!
Enter a world of possibilities for authors and book lovers alike. Eureka Förlag is the world's first democratic publisher where authors and readers combine their talents to decide which books go on to publication.
To all lovers of books:
We offer readers insight into the workings of a publishers. Welcome into the editorial room where you can browse our manuscripts until you uncover something that appeals to you. If you want to see any book in a book shop or on the screen of your tablet, invest as little or as much as you see fit in the book. It might not be enough that just one reader invests in a book, but when enough people see the same potential, the collective investment results in the author getting a book contract and you will share in the fruits it will bring.
To authors:
We offer authors a market window where your book can be viewed by the public. You exchange the often problematical waiting for letters from traditional publishers with a continuous activity around your book. The number of readers will be openly displayed, along with the level of investment. It is our hope that publication will creep up on you, but how quickly that process goes depends on the quality of the manuscript, but also on how well Eureka succeeds in attracting an active readership.
All authors will not be published by Eureka, but many more pairs of eyes will see your work, and among those we hope that as many as possible want to support what you have created.
We strive for justice, a way to revolutionize, to uproot old structures and provide anyone who so desires a new way to participate in the culture around them. With Eureka YOU decide!
