Discover the Ebony feathers publishing house

Word from the Director

Plumes d’ébène is a publishing house opened in February 2021. It is currently located at Liberté 6 Extension, near Auchan, Appartment N°10 Dakar - Senegal. This publishing house was created to fill a deficit in the mass production of quality books and to show in the practice of physical and digital books, the further links between literature, fashion, plastic arts, photography, music and cinema. Finally, it helps new writers, in search of identity in an unparalleled literary, artistic and intellectual abundance with an indescribable boom in electronic production media, to forge their own path and already established writers, to broaden and maintain constant the influence of their ideas in the world. Plumes d'ébène is now two-headed, not to say bilingual (all the books will be available in French and English versions), from the first day of operation of this site : Maison d'éditions Plumes d'ébène / Ebony feathers publishing house.

The ebony feathers goals

The main objectives of Plumes d’ébène Publishing House can be detailed as follows:
– Establish a trust-based relationship between Plumes d’ébène Publishing House and its Authors.
– Propose an alternative contract, ours, with the authors' contribution evaluated at one-third of the amounts to be invested in the production of their books, agreed upon by both the publisher and the author.
– Ensure that authors can quickly exercise their rights and receive their royalties as stipulated in the contract signed by both parties.
– Rewrite each book to be published as a work of art that will feature on the front cover (this measure mainly applies to fiction books, across all categories).
– Ensure that each published book is distributed as widely as possible geographically.
– Guarantee that each book sold up to the 500th copy can be translated into English by the 1000th copy sold, and if the book is a fiction work, the publisher is obliged to have it adapted into a film script.
– Involve the author in all matters concerning the printing and sale of their books.
