- ghaff 11y agoThey have dipped their toe in the water with Singles. In general I'd expect their approach might be to continue to expand their relationship with self-published authors who their data shows has promise. With big-name authors they're just on the same playing field as the other publishers.
- dminor 11y agoThey have - aside from Kindle Direct Publishing, Amazon has their own imprints that do traditional publishing. Many bookstores refuse to stock those books though.

- kevinr 11y agoAmazon have a huge pile of different publishing imprints, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Publishing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amazon_Publishing And that's just original imprints; it doesn't list things like Audible, which Amazon owns, and which are THE major audiobook publisher, but almost always published secondary to a print publication rather than original. And that's not including Amazon's multiple self-publishing options, including the Kindle Direct program.
