Latoya West-Blackwood has had a longstanding love affair with books and reading, so no surprise she started iPublish Consultancy and iMagiNation Books. iPublish is Jamaica’s first registered publishing consultancy and offers a full range of support services from its base in Kingston, Jamaica to clients worldwide. From editorial and design to digital distribution, marketing and promotions, iPublish provides customized solutions to self-publishers, independent publishers and corporate clients. iMagiNation is an imprint of iPublish and was created as a publishing outlet for works across genres showcasing the best of Jamaica to the world. It features new stories and voices via new media from Jamaica to the world.

Latoya has over a decade’s worth of experience in most areas of publishing and leverages her skills to provide clients with the best opportunity to tell their stories in print or digital at an international standard. She is passionate about volunteerism and supports several community-based and non-profit initiatives aimed at promoting literacy.
