Launching YACOPublishing

YACOPublishing eBooks will cover Study & Research Skills as well as topics related to the management and marketing of Experiential Services (Events, Leisure, Hospitality and Tourism). First book coming soon!

I created YACOPublishing to capitalise on the growing self-publishing trend. 

Academics produce a lot of content that often goes unpublished because it does not suit the traditional publishing methods (journals and textbooks). Self-publishing through eBooks provides academics with an easy and quick method to publishing such material. 

It is also very flexible as you don't need to have finished the whole book before publishing it. You can write part of it, publish it immediately and then add content over time. 

While I will use YACOPublishing to mainly publish my own work (alone or in conjunction with colleagues), I am open to proposals from other academics.

At present, YACO Publishing uses a platform called leanpub to publish its books.
