Coliloquy is a digital publisher of enhanced ebooks and apps, specializing in reader engagement and textual interactivity, particularly for middle grade, young adult, and female readers. We’ve done pioneering work with behavioral analytics, personalized ebooks, and contextual narrative advertising. Highlights included Kingdom Keepers Insider (a COPPA-compliant fan fiction community for Disney and Ridley Pearson), Rick Riordan’s Demigods of Olympus (a new reader-POV series in the Percy Jackson franchise), and working with the wonderful Rock Bottom Remainders (Stephen King, Mitch Albom, Dave Barry, Scott Turow, Roy Blount Jr., Amy Tan, James McBride, Matt Groening, and Sam Barry).We bootstrapped the company from concept to 30 interactive apps and ebooks with over 2 million readers before selling the publishing business to VOOK in October 2014.
