“If a nation loses its storytellers, it loses its childhood.”
—Peter Handke
Story-telling is an art as ancient as the history of mankind. The human mind has always been intrigued by the tales of fairies, devils, dragons, princesses, and knights in shining armors. As times changed, the story-lines transformed into more complex plots and diverse contemporary settings. But at the heart of it all, remained the two most important people-the story-teller and his audience.
We, at Gatha, are on a mission to ‘Bring forth the stories hitherto untold’. We are here to bridge the gap between the writer and his audience. If you have a story, we have the skills to breathe life into it, incubate it and give birth to a beautiful book.
Gatha has at its disposal a team of seasoned professionals who are experts in their respective domains. Above all, they are a bunch of bibliophiles, who are in love with the written word as much as you are. We welcome all writers-the greenhorns and the masters, writing in any genre or language, to be a part of Gatha
‘All the world’s a stage’, the Bard of Avon famously proclaimed.
Come, play your part. Weave a story and we will weave your dream for you…

While there are no ‘bad’ books, there definitely is ‘bad’ grammar- a major turn-off for the bookworms.
Although we do expect you to have a basic knowledge of your vowels, consonants, and syllables- errors do tend to creep in. ‘To err is human’, they say. Our team will make sure that your manuscript is free of any such blemishes.
“A good editor doesn't rewrite words, she rewires synapses.” (S. Kelley Harrell)
We will edit your words, your inscription, your sentences, and passages... but will not tamper with your ‘voice’. It will be loud and clear, especially after we have taken care of the unnecessary distractions in the script.
We have always been advised not to judge a book by its cover, but then - first impressions tend to be the last ones.
Unless you are a hot-selling author, a cover could make or break your first book. A book cover in perfect harmony with the theme and genre of your book can work wonders as far as marketing it is concerned. Imagine a thriller with a bland book cover…I rest my case.
Use the U.S. standard page size of 8.5×11 inches and set your margins to 1 inch on all sides, Indent all paragraphs by .5 inches, and don’t hit tab or space to indent, Use page breaks…
Sound like rocket science? We are there to help you out. Remember the age-old adage in Hindi - ‘Jiska Kaam Usiko Saaje’ which roughly translated means that one should leave the complex tasks to the experts. Not everybody is aware of formats, sizes, extent or spine! We at Gatha help you to create the most suitable format for your book which is not just economical but also what sells in the market.
According to Jay Baer ( “Content is fire, social media is gasoline.” A clever marketing strategy goes a long way in deciding the fate of your book.
We at Gatha will make you famous and put your book on a pedestal for the world to view it. We guarantee you that. But to be honest with you, it is the content of the book which decides its fate. Relax…Our editorial services are around just for that-carving a statue out of a stone if the need be.
