How it works
From vision to finished book
Nine stages carry an anthology from a Curator's vision to a published book of women's voices.
- 1
Curator inquiry and onboarding
A Curator brings the vision for an anthology and enters the Curator Program. Mija works with them to shape the concept and confirm the direction before anything moves forward.
- 2
Anthology setup
Mija builds the anthology foundation from the Curator's vision, defining the theme, promise, framing, and the pages that tell the story of the book.
- 3
Chapter Author enrollment
Up to 20 Chapter Authors enroll to write the chapters. A minimum of 6 paid Chapter Authors is required to launch the anthology.
- 4
Payments
Each Chapter Author invests $3,000, paid directly to Mija Media House. A deposit holds the place, and the balance follows through the established payment options as the anthology develops.
- 5
Chapter Discovery
Authors find the story each one alone can tell, the defining experience that shaped who they are.
- 6
Author Lab
Authors bring their stories into a guided, supported space where their voices are shaped and sharpened alongside other women in the book.
- 7
Chapter development and approvals
Each chapter moves through clear stages of development and approval until every story is exactly the one the author wants to tell.
- 8
Production
The anthology is professionally produced, designed, and finished as a book that really ships.
- 9
Publication
The finished anthology is published and shared, placing the chapters in the hands of the women who need them.
