our indie press model

How we work with writers
01
Merit-based selection
We only publish books we fully believe in; we do not accept payment from authors in any capacity. We review manuscripts from both agented & unagented writers.
03
Distribution
Our books are sold globally. As an indie, grassroots business, our focus is on digital sales of both physical copies and e-books, with a secondary target of bricks & mortar shops around the world
05
Author & IP protection
Our contracts are written in plain English, and conditions are offered upfront to writers. We abide by strict ethics set out by the IBPA, including full disclosure of IP custody from the onset.
02
Royalties-based
Our revenue is driven by book sales in a revenue-share model. In addition, we deliver public courses and workshops as well as consulting for government programmes to incentivise writing & reading.
04
AI Policy
We do not accept books written or entirely conceptualised by artificial intelligence.
06
Additional Services
We are a lean business that relies on sticking to proven basics to continue offering authors higher margins than traditional publishers. We do support authors with introductions to vetted additional suppliers for services we will not cover for direct engagement.
