At Writersgram we believe in innovation with sustainability, and thus have introduced Green Books. These books can be reused after reading to grow beautiful plants since we make them with plantable paper. The best part is that they are 100% handmade and help us in supporting local artisans.
Under our Green Publishing initiative, we have introduced Green Books. Green Books are just like your normal, regular books with a few changes which make them eco-friendly and help us give back to the environment. The book covers are made from plantable paper which can be later used to grow plants. The reader, after reading the book, can tear off a part from the cover (a small part of the cover would be marked for this like in the above image), plant it in the soil and it will grow like any other plant. The plantable paper works as seed, since it is made from recycled paper and seeds. We currently have basil and marigold available.
To add to the green initiative, we have collaborated with some local artisans who produce these books in a totally handmade manner without using any electricity/ diesel run machines for cutting and binding. Thus, when you publish and your readers purchase a green book, you not only give back to the environment, but also help us to support the local artisans.
ISBN & Barcode is allotted to the book as issued by Raja Rammohun Roy National Agency for ISBN, Department of Higher Education Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India.
We publish your book in softcover format which is totally handmade by local artisans. The book can be of upto 50 pages. This means, you can have upto 100 quotes, or 50 poems or 20 short stories in the book. The size of the book is 4 x 6 inches.
We offer flexibility in terms of interior layouts and elements like images, tables, illustrations can be included inside the book.
