Dr Syd K – A Professor of Pharmaceutical Chemistry

I do not know how I ended up choosing Zorba as a publisher for my manuscript. Around the end of 2016, I had finished my manuscript SEMMANTHAKA and was thinking as how best to get it out into the world of readers. Initially, I thought of going thru the typical submit-to-publisher route, but then I was in a hurry to get my story out. The traditional method could take months even to even get a feedback from the publisher and many times it could be a rejection and I would have to start this process all over again. Therefore, I decided to go the self-publishing way. The only thing I had to do was to identify a suitable publisher with a decent track record. Moreover, I wanted complete control on the script without anyone forcing me to make changes.

Around January of 2017, I saw an ad of Zorba in my gmail and decided to check them out. And as the saying goes: the rest is history. Right from the time of first contact, it was a smooth process of proofing the manuscript, tweaking the plot, friendly suggestions by the editor, and leading to the final gem that is SEMMANTHAKA, which by the grace of the Almighty is receiving rave reviews.

At this juncture, I have to thank the excellent services of my Zorba project manager, who is a thorough professional in all the sense of the word. A man, who is always polite and never has a harsh or impatient word for you. And God alone knows as to how many times I have disturbed him time and time again for this and that, concerning the book. His rock solid support plus the editorial team has in no less measure contributed to the success of the book.

I will HEARTILY recommend Zorba to any budding writer. Give them a chance with your creation. Paisa Vasool… as they say.. worth every rupee and more. Let them unearth the writer in you.

In the world of writers, books are often rated with starts, with the best books getting 5 out of 5 stars. I give Zorba 5.5 out of 5 for their services.
