About
Racket Publishing is the brainchild of award-winning author and Motion Publishing founder Phil Simon. He believes that, with rare exception, traditional publishers and the vast majority of publishing professionals are stuck in their ways. They cling to antiquated business processes, technologies, and mindsets. For example, email and attachments continue to rule the day. There’s just one problem:
It’s no longer 1998.
Simon believes that there’s a vastly better way to write and publish. By embracing new, user-friendly collaboration tools, it’s possible to make publishing a book far more efficient, cost-effective, and even downright fun. Yes, fun.
By treating its authors as partners and not clients, Racket provides sage guidance on all aspects of the writing process.
