Mantic Publishing

About

When I, Ayush Prakash, first wrote AI for Gen Z, it was in a state of curiosity and inexperience. I did not know how to write a book, let alone market it or get it published. All I had was an idea and a passion for execution. Sometimes, that is all you need. But when you have resources and experience, making the process you struggled with easier for others is a natural goal. That is what Mantic Publishing is set out to do.

At Mantic, we pay very careful and considerate attention and time into each idea. We find that a lot of authors, especially young ones, tend to have a beautiful nugget of an idea, but think that is it. For myself, I know for a fact that the initial iterations of AI for Gen Z, and even the Transcendence of Technology, were a far cry from what they are right now. The only way I was able to break through and find the broader creativity was through deliberate and painful (but necessary) conversation and ideation. Having people around a table (physically or digitally) that are as passionate and interested in your idea as you is a magnificent fuel for creativity and writing.

At every point along your journey at Mantic, you will have access to marketing, creative, and spiritual resources. There is no pressure or expectation to utilize all of these resources. Think of it like a grocery store. With so many items on the shelves and around the bins and boxes, expecting to purchase and consume every single one is ludicrous. You have an idea of what you want to buy, and as you collect your items you cross them off the list and eventually, you are done. This is a similar notion to how we at Mantic treat our authors. We are the grocery store, the authors pick and choose what they want as they feel it necessary.

Once the publisher and author are happy with the product, the next step is marketing, where we have world-class book marketers to help with packaging and distribution. We also have social media experts that have crafted a 3-month and 6-month social media sprint to get your audience excited for the arrival of your work.

Lastly, and perhaps most significant, we do not publish books we do not believe in. Our business model is not based on signing a number of books or interacting with big names. In most cases, those two things ruin a publisher, and thus, society at large. Mantic is focused on a small number of very high-quality arguments.

In a world of mega-publishers and even self-publishing, Mantic stands alone in a category defined not by mainstream narratives, but spiritual innerstanding.
