New York, 2010.

How an imprint that published 86 books by professionals began, and where it is today.

  • 2010 · New York. Daniel Mendoza, Hangyoon Ok and Jungku Lim found Dreams Magnet. A simple idea: that a professional with experience could have a book published and distributed without waiting for a traditional publisher.
  • 2011 · The first title. The imprint’s first book comes out and international distribution opens on Amazon and in bookstores. Six titles that year.
  • 2012 · Seven titles. Engineering and history join business and health.
  • 2013 · Sixteen titles. The imprint doubles its pace; education becomes the year’s most published subject.
  • 2014 · Thirty-two titles. The imprint’s busiest year: more than a third of the catalog, led by education, business, and agriculture and energy.
  • 2015 · Twenty-four titles. Health and dentistry grow: six titles in one year.
  • 2016 · The last title of that period, in health.
  • Today · An imprint of DASHING. Dreams Magnet is the imprint of DASHING, the authority publishing house led by its founder. The 86 titles are its track record.
