About Pure Ink Press
Partnership Publishing
Pure Ink Press is an independent publisher built on a partnership publishing model. This approach combines elements of traditional publishing and self-publishing, offering authors an accessible and efficient route to a professionally published book.
While delivering the same quality, standards, and benefits as traditional publishing, PIP’s model differs in that authors cover the cost of the publishing program (either through direct payments or crowdfunding) and, in return, retain 100% of their publishing rights and royalties. Authors also maintain creative control and are an integral part of the process from day one. We genuinely care about our authors and their books, and our partnerships continue long after publication.
As an independent publisher, we adhere to professional publishing industry standards and only publish quality books of a high standard. We have an experienced editorial, design, and marketing team with more than fifteen years of industry experience to assist you in every step of your publishing journey.
PUBLISHING PROGRAMS
PIP offers a range of publishing programs, from our all-inclusive, nine-month full publishing program to custom-designed options tailored to individual books and authors’ goals. If your book is accepted through our submission process, we will recommend the program best suited to you and your project. Our programs include audience building, professional editing, cover and layout design, production, an initial print run, distribution, marketing support, and much more.
COSTS
At PIP, we believe authors should be able to publish professionally without signing away their rights or facing prohibitive upfront costs. We therefore offer crowdfunding as an option to help cover publishing program fees. This approach not only assists in funding but also allows authors to build an audience before publication. Alternatively, authors may choose to fund their publishing program independently. The choice is yours.

SUBMISSIONS
We accept unsolicited submissions across all genres from authors worldwide. Please visit our submissions page if you are interested in submitting your manuscript for consideration. Only books that meet our criteria and publishing standards will be selected for publication, as we are highly selective in the projects we take on.
