GM Books helps authors get their books on the market faster!
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. - Californer -- William Dorich was a pioneer in Independent Publishing in 1984. His own unfortunate experience with a major publisher was the impetus in creating GM Books. He has written 10 books, 6 on Balkan history, politics and music. His best-selling titles include, Defeat Foreclosure, The Nursing Home Crisis, and Serbia: Faces & Places.
GM Books works closely with both first-time as well as experienced authors and provides the support in turning manuscripts into books, avoiding the rejection letters and delays from major publishers. By working with GM Books, the author becomes a participant in the publishing process in which small quantity press runs are treated with the same attention as large quantities. The author is given three choices of compensation, Collaborative giving the author a 50% royalty; Hybrid at 30% and traditional publishing with a 10% royalty.
Anita and William Dorich formed GMbooks.com when their independent publishing company was a cottage industry. In the early 1990's, GM was the first publisher of eBooks on CD Disks in California with 9 digital camera eBooks by author Peter iNova. Two of them were best-sellers. In 2008, GM was first to publish a "press & play" children's book, This Bible Talks by Pamela Fisher. GMBooks introduced "open-flat" perfect bound books to the California market with The Road Atlas by Richard Saul Wurman. GM then went on to produced 48 city guide titles with Richard Wurman under his Access Press trademark.
