Brook runs on one simple, repeatable engine. Here are the nine steps every book goes through, start to finish, with nothing hidden.
250
backers greenlight a book
$35
per pledge, one flat price
60
days for a campaign to fill
2
weeks for backers to pick the cover
One sentence is enough. The book you wish existed, described the way you would describe it to a friend. Submitting costs $35, which keeps every idea serious and makes sure a real person reads it.
Galia reads every submission herself and looks at three things: quality, feasibility, and whether the idea will resonate with readers. Approved ideas become campaigns. Ideas that are not a fit today are often a fit later.
The goal is 250 backers at $35 each, which is $8,750. Every pledge is a pre-order and a vote that says this story deserves to exist.
Pledges are non-refundable and stay with Brook to support future campaigns. Every backer gets a warm thank-you explaining how their support keeps the next story alive. Nothing is wasted, it just moves forward with the ecosystem.
The book is greenlit, a writer is commissioned, and the manuscript begins. Backers receive milestone updates as the story takes shape, so you see the book being written rather than waiting in the dark.
The manuscript goes through editing. At the same time, backers vote on the final cover, with a two-week window to choose. The cover with the most votes is the one the book wears forever.
The book is formatted for print and e-book. The names of all 250 backers go in the back as Brook's community imprint, listed as Anonymous for anyone who prefers to stay unnamed.
Every backer receives a free e-book of the finished story, plus a discount code for the printed edition.
A final thank-you email closes the campaign, and the book joins Brook's public library, where it stays for every reader who arrives after you.
Back a book that is gathering readers right now, or send in the one you wish existed.
