The Skin I’m In: An Evolution of Two Accords

How far back can we trace our personality, our phenotypic traits, our life experience? In what proportion of who we are is our prepared environment versus our own creation? How do we begin to grapple with our unique spiritual journey while recognizing the unarguable contribution of our physical nature on earth? 

 

Two people, two hobbyists of endless contemplative conversation, work to recall, to acknowledge, and to imagine their own processes of being. From conception to decomposition, an odyssey of the body and the spirit that breathes it is told. Skin: forming, molding, stretching, becoming, being. There are endless variations across humanity. And yet,  remarkable overlap of milestones remain. Our skin binds us. It excites us. It miseries us. It often tells our story.

Taking Elegant Literature to the Next Level

Challenge

Self-published authors face numerous challenges in navigating the literary landscape. Firstly, gaining visibility poses a significant hurdle, as they lack the marketing and distribution resources of traditional publishers. Building credibility and garnering reviews becomes more arduous without established publishing credentials. Limited access to professional editing and design services may impact the overall quality of the book. Self-published authors shoulder the responsibility of managing every aspect, from editing to cover design, adding a substantial workload. Distribution channels can be restricted, limiting bookstore presence. Overcoming skepticism about self-published works requires extra effort to prove literary merit. Despite these challenges, the autonomy and creative control self-publishing offers can be empowering, with some authors successfully leveraging online platforms to reach their audience.

Solution

Opting for a boutique publishing house presents a middle ground between self-publishing and traditional publishing, offering unique advantages for authors. These smaller, specialized publishers often provide more personalized attention, fostering a collaborative relationship between the author and the publishing team. Authors working with boutique houses may experience greater creative control compared to traditional publishers, allowing for a customized approach to editing, design, and marketing strategies. Boutique publishers also tend to have niche expertise, enabling them to cater to specific genres or themes. While distribution channels may not be as extensive as those of major publishers, boutique houses often focus on targeted and innovative promotional strategies, maximizing visibility within their niche. This approach allows authors to benefit from professional guidance and support while maintaining a more individualized publishing experience.
