Simon and Schuster's Atria Publishing division has formed an alliance with United Talent Artists. The two have started a new publishing firm called Keyword Press. Keyword will publish books from YouTube stars.
You read that right.
YouTube stars will now be offered publishing contracts. And who are these YouTube stars? So far, they've signed Shane Dawson, Justine Ezarik, Connor Franta, Joey Graceffa, and Shay Butler. These five have 20 million subscribes among them on YouTube.
