Who We Are

We are an internet-based self-publishing lab
 focused on off-the-wall resources for English as a second language teaching and learning.
Versatile.pub is the address of a small, independent publishing venture which got off the ground in spring 2015. It is just starting to publish a variety of works, mainly written, co-authored, edited or commissioned by James Thomas. These are mostly resources for teachers and students of English as a second or foreign language, but the literature, poetry, music and software of other creative minds are currently in our sights.

Versatile would not be possible without the innovations in internet technology in the areas of self-publishing, print-on-demand, content-management systems, social media and language corpora.
​
After some investigation and experimentation, Lulu.com was chosen as the printer and distributor. See the Lulu page in this website.

For more information about Versatile's approach and raison d'être, and the reason for this ELTons badge, see the About page.
