About
A development company built around the work
Vandorize works with authors and literary properties at every stage, from the first idea to a published series and from page to screen.
The company
More than a publishing service
Vandorize is a multidisciplinary development company for authors and literary properties.
Our work can begin with a manuscript, a completed book, an established series or a story with potential beyond the page.
Across editorial development, publishing preparation, audience growth, intellectual property and screen development, we bring the appropriate expertise together around the project.

Why Vandorize
What makes Vandorize different
01
Book First
We begin with the actual work rather than forcing every project into the same service.
02
One Development View
Story, publishing, audience, IP and screen potential can be considered together.
03
The Right Specialists
Different projects require different expertise. Our multidisciplinary structure allows the appropriate specialists to contribute at the right stage.
04
Built for What Comes Next
A book can remain a book, become a series, grow an audience or develop into broader intellectual property. We assess the possibilities without forcing them.
The Vandorize method
How we work
There are six possible stages. We identify which ones your project needs and the right order for them.
- 01
Assess
We read the work closely and give an honest view of its strengths, gaps and realistic opportunities.
- 02
Develop
Editorial and creative work that strengthens the material itself before anything is packaged or promoted.
- 03
Position
Defining genre, readership, comparable titles and the language used to present the work and its author.
- 04
Build
We prepare the book for publication, strengthen its retail presence and help it find its audience.
- 05
Expand
Where the material supports it, considering series, story worlds and characters as long term intellectual property.
- 06
Adapt
Exploring screen, audio and international formats with materials developed to a professional standard.
