Transformation Media Books We publish innovative works to nourish the mind and body. Our focus is body/mind/spirit nonfiction, but fiction serving our mission will be considered.

Transformation Media Books is currently open for queries at [email protected]. We accept queries from agents and direct from authors, followed by a proposal or marketing plan and manuscript upon request. Please contact [email protected] if you are seeking self-publishing services. You can expect to hear from us in less than four business days for queries and within two weeks on proposals. Authors with an established or growing platform are preferred, but new authors with quality body/mind/spirit work are welcome to query. Author involvement in promotion is required. However, we will consider your work with or without a significant promotional platform. We are open to using crowdfunding and other alternative methods to give you the opportunity to support your quality work if you have the motivation to reach your core audience.

Exciting news—we have a new Transformation Media Books logo! Our previous logo was from our imprint's creation in 2009, so it was time for an update.

As our focus is body/mind/spirit, we really wanted to emphasize the growth we hope our books inspire in our readers.

What do you think?

Katie Lee Grosskopf (https://www.katieleeg.com/) designed both this logo and our recently released Pen & Publish logo, and will be working on updating our other two imprints’ logos in the coming months. We can’t wait to share the full family of new logos with you!
