New Publishing House Launched in Ghana

Julian Adomako-Gyimah, a Ghanaian writer and businessman, has announced the birth of a new publisher called Zion Publishing, whose tag line is "we seek to create more published writers that ever seen before in Africa."

Adomako-Gyimah has said that Zion came as a result of "years of hassle by poets and writers in Ghana and other parts of Africa to get their books published." It gives the author the opportunity to get "ten complimentary copies of their books and royalties of up to 30% on sales."

Zion Publishing comes at a time when most publishers are reducing cost by laying off employees and reducing productivity, making it difficult for writers, especially emerging ones, to get the support they need to publish their works. "Don't look any further as no publishing house gives as much royalties and support as we do," said Adomako-Gyimah in a statement.

Julian Adomako-Gyimah is the co-founder of One Ghana, One Voice (OGOV), the online magazine which has provided a platform for Ghanaian poets and for poetry in Ghana's culture, people, places, and history. Zion Publishing has been established to compliment OGOV's efforts.

Zion Publishing intends to offer typsetting. proofreading, book designing and publishing services. It is currently accepting manuscripts and plans to function as a viable avenue for new emerging and seasoned writers. For submission guidelines, writers can contact Zion Publishing at jlnAdom@gmail.com
