Savant to Market to India

August 26, 2011
It's my pleasure to announce that Savant Books and Publications will soon be available online and in 200 independent bookstores throughout India beginning with R. Page Kaufman's TROPIC OF CALIFORNIA. The "common online listing" interface will be Cinnamon Teal's Dogearsetc.com (http://www.dogearsetc.com/book_details.jsp?resourceID=35515), but our books, as they "come online" will also be made available to other Indian online booksellers as well as brick and mortar stores.

There are few countries with with as many English-reading citizens, and Indians continue to have an intense interest in the U.S.A.  Working with Cinnamon Teal to provide regional printing, distribution, sales and fulfillment is what POD publishing is all about.

Sincerely,
Daniel S. Janik

May 22, 2011
It's not often a publisher hears that a fiction book plot is so well-conceived that it ends up in "real life" contemporary international news, but that's exactly what has happened surrounding author Bentley Gates' action-adventure novel, THE BAHRAIN CONSPIRACY.

Al-Qaida Terrorist Plan Foretold in Author Bentley Gates' novel "The Bahrain Conspiracy"



Author Bentley Gates appears to have predicted a fiendish plot revealed in notes of Osama Bin Laden captured by SEAL Team Six.

Savant Partners with GoogleBooks and Google eBooks

December 16, 2010
Aloha from sunny Honolulu, the heart of the literary explosion called "Savant Books and Publications."  During 2010, Savant released 18 books, and we have 12 more in various stages of pre-release for early 2011.

We have arranged for all new Savant releases to appear on the Ingram list. I estimate it should take, on the average, four months after release for an individual work to actuall...

A New Message for a New Decade - the 2010's

January 30, 2010
Here it is barely after New Year's festivities, and Savant Books and Publications has an outstanding schedule of publications projected for release during 2010. With the addition of several new editors and authors, we are looking towards a record third publishing year.
