Vision Statement

Ocean Publishing helps its customers to better understand and appreciate Nature in the hope that they will take active roles in its preservation and protection.

History

Established in late 2002 by Frank Gromling, Ocean Publishing is an independent traditional press. That means we do things the old-fashioned way by making a financial investment in an author and a manuscript. We produce and promote each selected book at our own expense, with authors expected to assist by having their own web sites and blogs, and engaging in presentations, signings, interviews, and such.

Frank is a past-president of the Florida Publishers Association, a former member of the board of directors of the Independent Book Publishers Association (IBPA), and a Commissioner in his home town. Prior to starting Ocean Publishing, Frank was the owner of an international company.

He hosts "Cover to Cover" every Saturday morning on WNZF AM/FM and on the Internet at www.wnzf.com. This lively show brings authors and publishing experts to the audience at 11:30 ET/8:30 PT.
