SUPPORT THIS SPECIAL LAUNCH OF IML PUBLICATIONS, DEDICATED TO BOOKS BY FEMALE THINKERS AND ARTISTS.
 

IML Publications LLC is a new-financial-model press dedicated to amplifying the important and often under-represented voices of women.  

Our authors receive a minimum of 50% of book sales and as a gift, 10% of the proceeds raised by IML Publications through the targeted Indiegogo campaign for them.

Our flagship collection, Venus as She Ages, is the collectible works of author Jacqueline Gay Walley. For this project we have set a fundraising goal which will cover publishing six novels in print (in English and French), digitally as ebooks, and recording them as audiobooks. You may also donate toward the design, podcasting, and public relations for the collection.

Any additional "dream" funds raised will go into the development of the next collection. In May 2021, we plan to launch a contest for fiction, non-fiction, and poetry.
