Plympton, Inc.
Plympton is a literary studio that reinvents how fiction is written, distributed, and read in the digital age. Founded in 2011 by journalist Jennifer 8. Lee and novelist Yael Goldstein Love, the company borrows the Hollywood development model - working with authors from the idea stage - and applies it to serialized fiction, short stories, and experimental formats. Plympton launched the first Kindle Serials for Amazon, acquired the email-serialization pioneer DailyLit, built the curated reading app Rooster, crowdsourced fresh covers for public-domain classics, curated Amazon Original Stories collections, put free short fiction on the NYC subway, and adapted literature into virtual reality.
