This month, bestselling author and collaborator Karen Hunter is joining with Pocket books to launch her own imprint, Karen Hunter Publishing. Hunter, best known for co-writing Karrine Steffans’ bestselling tell-all memoir, Confessions of a Video Vixen, said that the new imprint will focus on publishing titles that are entertaining and inspiring and, more than likely, also controversial. After talks with other publishers, Hunter settled with Pocket Books based on the extensive experience of its executive vice president and publisher, Louise Burke. Said Burke, “Karen is very talented and ambitious, so I jumped at the chance to work with her on this endeavor.”
