About Us
In our age of instant, user-generated content, quality and editorial control have diminished and produced a data-rich, information-poor environment that is over-saturated by poor-quality and unreliable content. Our company seeks to promote and exemplify a new paradigm of excellence within our burgeoning age of electronic media.
Demand is of paramount importance when considering current and future products. We believe that our world is at the inception of a new era of mobile computing in which almost all content will be delivered wirelessly to mobile computing devices such as iPad, iPhone, Android, and Kindle. Now, at the beginning of this fundamental transformation, demand is very high for new, innovative, and highly useful content. Gatsby’s Light Publications hopes to be at the forefront of that transformation.
We are currently on the edge of a revolution within the worlds of publishing and mobile computing. Gatsby’s Light Publications seeks to, as Wayne Gretzky famously proclaims “Go where the puck will be” rather than where the puck is or where it has been. The market for mobile apps and eBooks is growing at an exponential rate. Evidence of this is clearly revealed in the uncertainty, paranoia, and near-frantic angst within traditional publishing companies today. Indeed, we see a future dominated by wireless mobile computing devices such as iPhone, Kindle, Nook, and iPad–devices that bypass the gatekeepers, bureaucracy, and nepotism of the traditional publishing industry. In short, power within the world of art, literature, and mobile computing is rapidly shifting from “The Guys in Ties” to the artists, writers, and developers themselves who often pour their hearts, minds, and souls into their creations. By establishing our company now, ahead of the inevitable wave of change toward digital content, we hope to position ourselves as an industry leader in the rapidly growing market of eBooks and mobile applications. In short, Gatsby’s Light Publications hopes to “Go where the puck will be.”
Gatsby’s Light Publications is based in Austin, Texas, and was founded in 2010.
