Growth Will Cost You

Femi Agboola

There is a price on everything worth having. Everything.

Across twenty-five centuries of true, verified stories, you will meet a wrestler who carried a growing bull, a slave who taught emperors, a girl in a metal leg brace who became the fastest woman on earth, a stammering boy who rebuilt his own voice, a prisoner whose silence produced a masterpiece, a parlormaid the experts rejected who carried a hundred orphans over the mountains — and a boy in a Nigerian bakery who learned, at seven years old, that nothing happens by chance.

❧

What we mean by “with proof”

Every story checked. Where we couldn't check one, we say so.

Our source notes are printed beside the text — each flagged as verified, legend, or the author's own account. A press that flags its own legends is making a claim about itself.

Two honest ways in

We run two lanes, and we tell you plainly which one you are in.

Lane one

Selective / traditional

We carry every cost, license the rights for a defined term with a reversion clause, and pay royalties on a schedule you can hold us to. Two to four titles a year.

Lane two

Author services

You commission the work and keep your rights and your royalties. Editing, cover, interior, ISBN, distribution — with the network behind the launch.
