Greetings everyone,
I trust you're all enjoying a wonderful weekend. I'm excited to share an exciting update about my memoir with everyone, especially those not on social media.
Following keen interest from esteemed publishers like Penguin Random House, India, I'm delighted to announce that I've selected Juggernaut Books as the official home for my memoir!
After careful consideration, guided by the expert advice of my agent and insights from industry professionals and fellow authors, Juggernaut emerged as the standout choice for several compelling reasons:
Personalized Attention: Juggernaut has a smaller publishing roster than Penguin, allowing them to provide personalized support to debut authors like myself throughout the editing process and beyond.
An Editor Who Gets It: The editor matched with me provided thoughtful feedback from the start. Her deep understanding of my work, appreciation of my writing craft, and eagerness to collaborate solidified my decision to go with Juggernaut. I’m looking forward to working with her!
Strong Marketing Push: Juggernaut’s exceptional book marketing capabilities have garnered praise from industry professionals, including a former Penguin insider and award-winning authors. Their proactive approach, organizing author events and book talks, will present an excellent opportunity for me to engage with readers.
While a younger publishing house, Juggernaut has quickly established itself as a leader in quality nonfiction under the able guidance of Chiki Sarkar. Their innovative marketing strategies have quickly pushed them to the forefront of the industry. This commitment to quality and reaching readers was what ultimately clinched the deal. Juggernaut's impressive roster of authors, including Arundhati Roy, William Dalrymple, Abhijit Banerjee, and Esther Duflo, is truly inspiring. Finding myself alongside such luminaries is a humbling honor.
I can't wait to team up with the incredible folks at Juggernaut Books! It's a huge step towards sharing my intriguing journey with all of you. The ongoing waiting game as my editor tackles her current workload and the books ahead of mine, I'm so excited to be moving one step ahead at long last!
I'm delighted to have you along for the ride! Stay tuned for more updates and feel free to share my news with anyone you think may be interested.
Warmly,
Tarini
Note: Contrary to popular belief, Penguin India operates independently of Penguin USA even though both are subsidiaries of the parent company, Penguin Random House.
