NEW YORK – August 24, 2026 – Manhattan Book Group, recognized as one of the top hybrid book publishing companies serving authors today, is celebrating its eighth anniversary in 2026, marking another milestone in the publisher’s continued growth.
Manhattan Book Group was launched in 2018 as an imprint of MindStir Media, an established publishing company that has been serving authors for more than 16 years. The imprint was created to provide authors with a professional hybrid publishing option combining the support and production standards associated with traditional publishing with greater author control and flexibility.
Over the past eight years, Manhattan Book Group has worked with authors across a wide range of genres, providing professional publishing services that may include editing, custom book design, distribution, marketing, and author support.
“Eight years is an important milestone for Manhattan Book Group, but it also represents the experience and infrastructure that have been built over more than 16 years through MindStir Media,” said J.J. Hebert, founder of MindStir Media and CEO of Manhattan Book Group. “Our goal has always been to give serious authors access to an experienced publishing team while allowing them to maintain greater control over their books and publishing careers.”
Since its launch, Manhattan Book Group has continued to expand its presence within the hybrid publishing industry while emphasizing professional production, broad distribution, author ownership, and book marketing opportunities.
Unlike a newly established publishing company building its infrastructure from the ground up, Manhattan Book Group launched with the benefit of MindStir Media’s existing publishing experience, systems, industry relationships, and author-services infrastructure. MindStir Media was founded in 2009 and has now operated for more than 16 years.
As Manhattan Book Group enters its ninth year, the company plans to continue expanding its work with authors seeking an alternative to both traditional publishing and do-it-yourself self-publishing.
Manhattan Book Group is currently accepting new publishing projects from authors interested in professional hybrid book publishing. Prospective authors can learn more about the company, its publishing programs, and the submission process through Manhattan Book Group’s official website.
