Note from me: Below is the start of a week long blog post about the new publishing company titled Clean Teen Publishing. I truly LOVE this idea, not because I want to censor books, NOT in the least. In fact, I am against censorship, but I am in favor of options! I see Clean Teen Publishing as a viable option, and am excited for this company. I wish them all the success in the world.
Clean Teen Publishing
We
are excited to be able to tell your amazing readers about our new publishing
company: Clean Teen Publishing. CTP is a new Indie publishing company that
publishes Young Adult and New Adult fiction. We opened our doors in late February
of 2013. Since then we have signed 5 authors and we have published 9
books and we have another book release scheduled for next week:
•
Rebecca Gober and Courtney Nuckels- Night
Marchers,
Redemption, Project ELE, Finding ELE, Exposing ELE and Surviving
ELE.
(Available Now)
We
have additional author deals in the works as we speak now.
What
Makes Clean Teen Publishing Different For Readers? One of the things that
makes CTP stand out from the crowd is our trademark rating system. All Young
Adult genre books that are newly published through Clean Teen Publishing will
have a rating attached to their book. This content rating is based on the
following: Romance, Language, Violence and Drug/Alcohol Abuse. At Clean Teen
Publishing, we believe that our readers deserve to know ahead of time what
they are reading. We do not believe in censorship; we believe in the
right to know. Every reader, no matter what their age is, has certain
boundaries they don't want to cross. Currently there is no consistent
rating system in place for books like there are for movies, music and
video games. We believe by offering a wider range of disclosure about the content
of our books, we will give readers of all ages and parents, a stronger
sense of comfort according to what lies between the pages.
With
that said, we will not deem whether a book is appropriate or inappropriate
for any particular age range. *Our disclosure is simply for you to know
what is in the book and we leave it up to you to decide what you are
comfortable with reading.
Below
you will find an image of our current rating system. Please note that we only
rate YA books. We currently have not determined the need to rate New Adult
books. For more information on our ratings please check out this link: http://www.cleanteenpublishing.com/content-disclosure.html
Did
you know that Clean Teen Publishing offers the ability to order a rating for
your self-published book? We also offer this content rating for other Indie publishing
companies who want their YA books rated. For more information on how to order
your rating, please check out this link: http://www.cleanteenpublishing.com/order-a-rating-for-your-book.html
What
Makes Clean Teen Publishing Different For Authors? At Clean Teen Publishing,
we believe our authors, who create new and amazing literary worlds, deserve to
receive a large share of the profits that their art creates. We also believe
that our authors deserve the support of quality editing, breathtaking covers
and the power of a strong marketing presence behind them. As authors ourselves,
we know that your writing comes from your heart and, in a sense, is a part of
you. We will carefully protect that part of you and work hard to keep your
creative vision alive.
Clean
Teen Publishing is currently accepting submissions for Young Adult and New
Adult novels. We
are looking for well written YA (young adult) or NA (new adult) novels that are
between 50,000 and 100,000 words. We are interested in stand alone books and we
will accept submissions for previously self-published work (however, this may
change in the future.) Our ideal submission would be the first two books in a
series or a novel and a novella that is a prequel to the novel. We are looking
for something unique and breathtaking. For more information on our
submission guidelines, check out: http://www.cleanteenpublishing.com/submissions.html
