If you've found your way here, you're likely carrying a story that has refused to leave you alone.

You may have tried traditional publishing. You may have considered self-publishing. You may have been told "not marketable," "not the right moment," or "not for us."

Here, those words do not exist.

Independent Press Publications is built for authors like you—writers with a book in their bones, writers who know that their story is meant to speak into the world.

Why This Press Exists

"Because the world needs the book you carry—and because you shouldn't have to fight alone to bring it to life."

Traditional publishing moves slowly, with algorithms and market departments deciding which voices are allowed through. Self-publishing requires you to become a printer, distributor, marketer, and technician instead of doing what you were made to do—write.

We stand in the gap. Here, you can be a writer, and we'll handle the rest.
