Can I send my astronomy manuscript to Ken Press?
Please do not send unsolicited manuscripts to Ken Press. I am not a publishing company at large. Most of the books/charts that I publish are produced in house. However, l am willing to talk with you about the publishing process. I am best reached by text message at 520-743-3200 or email at ken@kenpress.com. I often miss recorded messages because I spend most of my time on the computer and not the cell phone, so please text or email me.
Does Ken in Ken Press have a meaning or is it just vanity?
The word Ken means to “see” or “view.” So, Ken, coupled with the eye logo, signifies products that are used to see or view something. Although this definintion of Ken is from an older Irish use of the word, it was specifically chosen for its subtlety and difference, distinguishing Ken from other publishers. Now, the owner of Ken Press is Ken Graun and his first name might have heavily influenced his decision to use Ken in the company’s name.
