Blooming Twig
Blooming Twig, based in New York City, is the publisher of award-winning books that matter, from self-help to children’s fiction. We publish between 15 and 20 new titles each year, and are distributed in the United States and internationally by Cardinal Publishers Group, and through our affiliate publisher in New Zealand, Oratia Media.
Blooming Twig has two catalogs per year, one in the fall and one in the spring, and we currently have three imprints, “15-Minute Books” for all kinds of electronic devices, “Rag Man Project” books for children of all ages, and “Blooming Twig Anthologies” for readers of all kinds. We are a growing independent publisher that supports an ever-expanding line up of both up-and-coming and well-known authors.

15 MINUTES
This exciting project is just taking shape, and will be exploring concepts of 15-minute books, videos and audio by excellent authors. We will be bringing stories, inspiration and much more to our readers by iPhone, iPad, Android, and the web very soon. Stay tuned.
BLOOMING TWIG ANTHOLOGIES
We have had so much fun putting together Volume 1 of the Speaker Anthology, including 101 great stories from motivational speakers, that we have decided to release between 3-5 anthologies every year, each of them containing writings by several, if not dozens, of authors.
RAG MAN PROJECT
The first book in our Rag Man imprint, the award-winning children’s book Ballad of the Rag Man, has inspired us to continue publishing children’s books that matter. All too often children’s books talk down to our little ones, and our intention is to publish books that expand children’s imagination while inspiring them to help change the world for the better. We are hoping to release 3-4 children’s fiction titles per year.
