The company uses a piece of proprietary software called Teamtrope〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.prlog.org/12369452-booktropes-unique-approach-to-publishing-attracts-attention-from-hollywood.html )〕 to match authors to editors, proof-readers, cover designers, book managers and project managers, with the stated aim of keeping costs down and passing on the savings to the consumer. ==History== Booktrope won first place at the Seattle Angel Conference in November 2013, securing $250,000 in investments. In 2014, the company announced a relationship with the Intellectual Property Group in which the IPG would represent the company's catalog to the entertainment industry.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.prlog.org/12369452-booktropes-unique-approach-to-publishing-attracts-attention-from-hollywood.html )〕 The following January, the company opened for submissions〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Booktrope wants your submissions )〕 for the first time in two years. The company took on an additional $215,000 investment in January 2015, and announced the launch of two new imprints in February of the same year. Forsaken is led by Jesse James Freeman, the company's VP of Community Management, and focuses on horror; Gravity is led by Rachel Thompson and focuses on stories about trauma and recovery. These imprints joined existing imprints Edge (BDSM and dark thrillers), Entice (erotica) and Vox Dei (Christian).〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://booktrope.com/2015/02/15/new-booktrope-imprints/ )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Booktrope」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
