What People Are Saying
“Thank you for providing this service!”
—Susan Scutti, author
“. . . a wonderful way of informing librarians and others that
not all important books are published by multimedia
conglomerates.”
—Steve Carlson, Publisher
“. . . it is pretty scary sometimes to go mano-à-mano with the
giants. So thank you yet again! We are sincerely grateful!”
—Ana Jorges, Senior Editor
“. . . Thanks for instituting this valuable new service.”
—Christopher Nye, author
Nancy Hammerslough has commissioned five reviews from Kirkus Discoveries so far.
“Despite the fact that not all the reviews were exactly glowing, I’m extremely grateful to have them and to Kirkus Discoveries for their objectivity and integrity. Now how many times do you hear that from a publisher?”
—Nancy Hammerslough, Editor-in-Chief
Brown Barn Books
Innovation and Flexibility
“Thank you for launching the Kirkus Discoveries Program.
What a great opportunity for the ‘little guys’ to be reviewed
by your reputable organization. It shows innovation and
flexibility on your part to address the changing-for-the-better
publishing world. Not only does this program help level the
playing field, you are also reshaping an antiquated publishing
paradigm. Less-marketed books (although not necessarily
less-valuable) can now reach a wider audience. That’s a
benefit for the entire industry, especially readers. (But I think
you already knew that!)”
—Toni Dockter, Author & Publisher
FuschiaWoman Publishing
An Awesome Opportunity
“As a new author, I appreciate so much this awesome opportunity your company has given ‘us little guys.’ I don’t know what inspired you to do this, but from the bottom of my heart I thank you.”
—Darby Lynn Gaynor, author
