Worthy Publishing has named Pamela Clements vice president and associate publisher of the company’s new imprint, Inspired.

An industry veteran, Clements most recently served as associate publisher of Abingdon Press’s Christian Living and fiction books. Prior to that, she was associate publisher at Hachette. Clements began her career at Thomas Nelson in publicity and marketing before becoming publisher of its General Interest and Lifestyle imprint.

“Pamela’s wide experience with author acquisition, product development, brand management, creative marketing and promotion make her the ideal person to launch a new imprint,” said Byron Williamson, president and CEO of Worthy Publishing Group. “She led the Abingdon team that won an unprecedented 15 Christian Retailing’s Best Awards—presented at the 2014 CBA convention and was named publisher of the year by the AWSA [Advanced Writers and Speakers Association].”

Clements said she is “thrilled” to join the Worthy team.

“I love the mission and the books that they have been publishing, particularly the opportunity to build a creative new imprint,” she said. “It’s exciting to be a part of a growth-oriented company committed to reaching out to readers with life-changing content.”

Inspired is just shipping its first titles, including Hope for the Caregiver by Peter Rosenberger, which was featured this month on NBC’s Today Show during the Kathie Lee and Hoda hour. The imprint will be publishing impulse-read, felt-need, inspirational, self-help and devotional titles from such authors as Laura Story, Stu Epperson, Margaret Feinberg, and Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott.
