About 5 years ago, Graphic Connections Group purchased Mira Digital Publishing to expand our already successful book publishing division. We chose to keep the name in place so Mira authors could smoothly transition to the new ownership and parent company. This choice made sense and our book division is doing well. However, there are challenges to having a different name and it causes confusion and inefficiencies internally. This a decision we’ve made to better serve our authors and self-publishers.
Going forward, we will be eliminating the Mira name and simply operate under Graphic Connections Group Publishing (GCG Publishing).
The only change our valued authors will see is the transition to our parent name. Everything else will stay the same—we are still located in the same building, with the same equipment, and the same awesome staff! We’ll continue to provide you with the same quality and renewed dedication to producing the best book possible for a fair and competitive price.
Over the next few weeks, we will be changing the mirabooksmart.com website, bookstore, and other marketing materials to the GCG name. You will receive notices when some of these things are done.
In closing, I want you to know how much we here at GCG appreciate the business because, without you, there is no business. Thank You for the trust you’ve instilled in us to produce your books…you are appreciated!
Feel free to give us a call anytime and talk to Jill, Anne, or Kim about your upcoming book project!
