Their wider publishing programme is as of yet hard to decipher, as they plan to build it through series of 5 releases per season. The first one is focusing on comic books which merge this form with a literary sensibility and among their first releases are Chateu de Sable by Frederik Peeters & Pierre Oscar Lévy, Prototyp by Ralf König and Fallteknikk by Inga Sætre. All of them are well respected and awarded authors in their home countries.
Due to VigeVageKnjige operating on a small market, they deal with their potential audiences with a pronounced care. They are setting up original events that accompany their books (Skype talks with the authors and (in collaboration with KUD Kentaver) live stage re-enactment of parts from the books), thoughtfully use the social media, work on personalising the relations with their customers and lead a blog on their webpage - which is one of the few select places where their books can be bought.
