I saw this and would like to send a query about a full length ekphrastic manuscript I have done, a collaboration with visual artists. It is 87 page and has about 38 plates. Some of the art is reduced in size and on the same page as the poems. Some is not.
Currently, the manuscript is in Word or PDF (I have it in both formats), but I am open to a publisher who would turn it into an app or enhanced ebook.
I will send a sample if this is something the company is interested in pursuing.
