WELCOME TO THE TEAM

For those of you following us closely, you may have noticed Acorn is growing! As authors ourselves, we've built a company that is extremely appealing to writers seeking a home for their books. The publishing industry is changing. Self-publishing and traditional publishing are moving aside for companies like ours (Hybrid Publishers) who offer the best of both worlds. As we get more and more submissions and sign on more authors, we're having to share the workload a bit. We're very excited and proud to announce two new consulting editors will be joining our Acorn Publishing team. Both are not only extremely talented editors, but authors as well. Welcome to the team Laura & Christa!

Laura Taylor

Veteran Consulting Editor and Author LAURA TAYLOR is a permanent faculty member of the Southern California Writers' Conference, a member of International Thriller Writers and the Authors Guild, and one of the original 25 Founding Members and served on the Board of Directors of Novelists, Inc. Her 20 years of editorial expertise extends across all fiction genres, non-fiction, academic texts, memoirs, and screenplays. The recipient of more than a dozen national writing awards and endorsements of her writing by creative luminaries Pat Conroy and WEB Griffin, she also holds a B.S. Degree in Criminal Justice from California State University at Long Beach.  

Christa Yelich-Koth

Christa Yelich-Koth is the bestselling author of the Eomix Galaxy Books collection. Her debut novel, ILLUSION, won the 2016 Novel of Excellence Award in Science Fiction. Aside from writing, Christa loves to work with other authors, helping to shape their books through either editing or formatting, and get them ready for publication. She has worked with both award-winning and bestselling authors. Christa has hosted several workshops at the Southern California Writers Conference, was co-editor for REDSHIFT, and a panelist at several scifi and fantasy conventions. Her goal as an editor is to help enhance the beauty of the author's voice/style while working through anything that bogs the story down. She wants the author to feel uplifted as a writer and encouraged to make changes to tell their story the best way possible.
