Publishing Ministry

CLC Kenya seeks to increase access to books…

…that have a positive impact on communities for Jesus Christ. We accomplish this through:

Writing mentorship,
Traditional publishing,
Facilitation of self-publishing (now called hybrid publishing),
Print-on-demand, and
Kids and teens reading programs, writing classes and publishing cohorts.

We believe that books provide our communities with access to God’s wisdom while also stretching our minds beyond any conceivable horizon. Books are also the ultimate form of self-education and a personal empowerment tool.

If you want to get more out of life, there is a book on a shelf or computer somewhere that will be your friend and guide.
If you’re an author, you should write boldly and produce a book that will illuminate the path for others.
If you are a parent, guardian or teacher, nurture the writing gift of your child from as early as possible.
If you are a reader, continue to exercise your mental muscles.
If you are a publisher, book agent, or author-enabler, keep at it.

You all play a crucial role in bringing these transformative tools to the world. By supporting and promoting literature, you contribute to the growth and development of our societies and cultures in the continent.

Together, we can ensure that books become a powerful force for knowledge, inspiration, and change.

In traditional publishing, the publisher bears the costs, such as editing, marketing, and paying advances so that the author can receive royalties from the success of his/her book achieves.

Traditional Publishing

The self-publishing landscape has changed considerably in the past two decades with new technologies such as the Internet, and the $1 billion markets continuing to change at a rapid pace. Increasingly there are numerous alternatives to traditional publishing, and self-publishing is becoming the first choice for writers.

Self-Publishing

Print-on-Demand enables a single copy of a book to be printed! Large commercial digital printers are very expensive but now technology has developed to the point that small scale equipment is available.CLC Kenya has a Print-on-Demand facility which enables us to respond quickly to local demands. This has made it possible for Kenyan authors to have their books published and printed in a way that would have been unthinkable previously.All that is required is a digital copy of the book and our Print-on-Demand department can produce the book for you.

Print-On-Demand

Writing your book is a critical step towards getting published, which is the best way to share an idea or story that matters to you, while at the same time impacting the life of someone else. A simple book that you actually get to write is better than an awesome one that you dream of writing and is still in your head. Most people have a dream of writing a book but never realize it. This is why we are here today, now! To make sure that the book makes it out of your head into your word processor. In this process, you should expect to get an accountability mentor towards completing your book.
