By Maryann Yin 

Macmillan Logo (GalleyCat)Macmillan has acquired Pronoun. The Bookseller reports that the publishing house did not announce the amount paid for this New York City-based self-publishing platform.

Pronoun was known as Vook at its launch in 2009. The new name was established in 2015.

Here’s more from the Pronoun company’s blog post: “By joining forces, we’ll be able to invest even more in improving and growing Pronoun’s self-publishing platform, all while giving successful independent authors a path towards more opportunity. As a division of Macmillan, we’ll be doubling down on Pronoun’s free core platform, while also investing in additional levels of service and support. We will continue to make the best products we can by starting with the needs of authors and building from there.” (via The Digital Reader)
