Goff says, "We are very proud that Laura has entrusted us with the care of her enviable backlist and current roster of outstanding clients.

Distribution
Simon & Schuster will distribute Galvanized Media starting January 1, 2018. The company has had a distribution deal with Penguin Random House since 2013, though it's not clear that they issued many books under the "independent imprint." They did regain rights to two "Eat This, Not That!" books that Galvanized co-founder Dave Zinczenko co-authored at Rodale, and S&S says "the first titles released by Galvanized Media under the new relationship will be a series of 14-Day diets" in 2018. Zinczenko's Zinc Ink imprint was supposed to be publishing 6 to 12 titles a year with the Random House Publishing Group since 2014, though our last deal report received was in early 2014, the last of 6 announced deals.
