The aim of Power Publishers is to give the freedom to ALL talented writers and poets with a chance to get themselves published. We believe there are thousands of talented writers and poets out there who are refused by conventional publishers just because conventional publishers only publish books based on the calculation whether the book is going to make profit for the company. They avoid specialized subjects. As such they make talented writers and poets wait for 4 months to 2 years before going through their manuscript and in 96% cases the reply they send is a cold 'Sorry, we cannot publish your book at this time'. This comes down as a major blow to the confidence of writers and poets leaving them heartbroken.
We at Power Publishers have tried to solve this situation. We neither refuse to publish, nor keep you waiting for an answer. We have a simple 4 step procedure to get yourself published - and you are assured to get your books in printed form within 2 weeks! Not only so, we send you enough complimentary copies so that you can sell or distribute them; pay you quarterly royalty with statement of accounts; provide editorial and designing service, cover art, sales, promotion and distribution assistance. Your book is made available all over the country, across 10,000 PIN code areas of India and also internationally through popular bookstores like Crossword, Flipkart, Infibeam, Ebay, Amazon's Junglee.com etc., through which your readers can by your book. We also search engine optimize your publication, so that it gets noticed online. We also send out copies of your book for review to 5 popular daily newspapers and you can see how many of our books have been in news or reviews over the media, if you visit this page (click here to see). We have also helped many authors organize their book launch event, photos of which can be seen here (click here to see).

You own copyrights and can also withdraw your book any time if a major traditional publisher agrees to publish the same book later.
If your child is a talented writer or artist; get her/his book published through us. We have a company policy and actively want to support talented children who write, draw and paint well to get published. 30% of our authors are between the age group of 9 and 25.
Renowned authors like Rudyard Kipling, Ernest Hemmingway, Stephen King, Amish, Mark Twain, E. L. James (Fifty Shades of Gray), and Walt Whitman had taken the help of self publishing to get their books published. We all know what happened to them later.

New Corporate Wordmark To Be Paired With Each of the Company’s Publishing Brand Symbols
Penguin Random House, the world’s most global trade book publisher, today introduced a new brand identity that reflects the recently merged company’s values, goals, and strengths, including its unique position in the international marketplace for books and commitment to the diverse and distinct publishing houses that serve as creative homes to many of the world’s most beloved authors and books of all time.


The new corporate wordmark underscores the importance of the written word to the company’s culture and work and will most often be paired with one of Penguin Random House’s 250 widely recognized and respected publishing divisions, imprints, and brands. The brand system, as this pairing design framework is called, is flexible and can be employed not just at the publishing level, but also territorially. The imprints and brand symbols also can continue to stand alone without the brand-system pairing – for example, on the spines of books.

The visual connection between the wordmark and each publishing symbol creates a mutually enhancing and reinforcing brand identity for both. On the one hand, it denotes the global scale and reach of Penguin Random House, and on the other, it showcases the individuality and creativity of the company’s diverse publishing portfolio. This unifying visual synthesis represents the singular ability of Penguin Random House to nurture a universal passion for reading by publishing the very best books for all ages and interests, and connecting them to the widest readership worldwide.
Markus Dohle, CEO, Penguin Random House, said: “Presenting our new Penguin Random House wordmark side by side with each of our publishing imprint and brand symbols powerfully communicates what makes our company so special:  our collective expertise and global scale coupled with our local publishing teams giving diverse and important voices a platform and audience. This fundamental understanding of our heritage and of the company we are building together for the future informs the design of the brand identity, and how we will visually represent who we are.”
Penguin Random House partnered with New York City-based design agency Pentagram to develop the company’s new brand identity, which replaces the interim logo introduced on July 1, 2013.

Actions Speak Louder Through Words

The Atlantic ranked the invention of the printing press as the most important event in modern history.¹ Johannes Gutenberg’s first mechanical printing press changed the course of publishing in the West and ignited a printing revolution.

Some of the greatest names in literary history, such as Walt Whitman, Mark Twain, Virginia Woolf and Ernest Hemingway, were able to put their work in print with the freedom of the printing press. Publishing houses of their time wouldn’t produce their work, but the printing press gave a voice to writers of this era, resulting in some of the most treasured stories in history.

In 1998, the emergence of desktop publishing, digital printing and the Internet created another unprecedented opportunity for authors: self-publishing. Author Solutions was at the forefront of this pivotal change in the publishing industry and continues to be a global leader in self-publishing. Our imprints have helped more than 180,000 authors realize their dreams of publishing and have brought more than 225,000 new titles to market.

In time, the effect of self-publishing could be as profound and potentially far reaching for authors as Gutenberg’s first invention.
