Get to Know Hybrid Publishing

Hybrid publishing is a business model in which the author and publisher share in both costs and profits. Hybrid publishing offers authors a single package for editorial, design, packaging, printing, and distribution. Over the past two decades, this model has emerged as a popular and viable alternative to both traditional publishing and self-publishing. The Stable’s own Brooke Warner has trailblazed this middle ground between traditional publishing and self-publishing, and we are proud to be launching with three hybrid imprints (and we’re looking to add more).

At The Stable, our hybrid imprints adhere to the industry standards developed and championed by the Independent Book Publishers Association. Our hybrid publishers have produced award-winning books and include The New York Times, USA Today, and Boston Globe bestsellers.

The Stable Book Group’s collective publishing experience and distribution through Simon & Schuster ensures that we will continue to honor our publishers' legacy as the gold standard in hybrid publishing. We bring our commitment to editorial and production excellence to every hybrid book we publish.
