GLB Publishers® has as its mission the publishing of good books by and for Gay men, Lesbians, and Bisexuals, hence our name (and it's trademarked). We are cooperative publishers, meaning that the author, with what s/he believes is a worthy manuscript, shares the cost of publishing the book and earns a higher rate of return (royalty) to recover expenses. GLB does all the technical work and organizes the marketing in consultation with the author, so the author becomes a partner in the project, a publisher as well as an author. Our titles include fiction (both explicit and the more traditional forms), non-fiction, and occasionally poetry (unusual these days). Our author list includes some of the most distinguished authors and academics as well as first-time authors. See our "covers" page for examples of our books. Our marketing network includes national and international organizations that specialize in the gay/lesbian markets and book stores. GLB Publishers is known worldwide as a leading source of gay/lesbian/bisexual books. For the US and Canada we distribute through Ingram wholesaler, the largest book wholesaler in the world; in the UK we are represented by Gazelle Distributors, and in Australia our books are distributed by Bulldog Books. Our Web Site is becoming more popular every day, with more hits every month (and we keep track!). In addition to presenting our print titles, we also offer the opportunity for electronic publishing on the Net (see below for info on e-Books). No other comparable organization has as much presence on the Internet.
