Fyi to publishers, I care about the book, not the authors influencer status
If people are paying money there is an expectation to have good grammar and a compelling story
Big publishers are taking whats going to do well into account instead of actual skill
A book should not be written and published in under six months
Where’s holding books to a standard
The problem is publishers preferring to give deals to easy bets
Trad publishing has become a joke
[Publishers] They value quantity over quality, unfortunately
I’m seeking trad because I don’t have the funds to do it

WE LISTENED
TO WHAT YOU HAVE
TO SAY
Literally would do anything to not have to film myself for promo stuff
We publish
Contemporary
fiction
We want to be home to stories that are inquisitive about our world and how we move through it. Ranging from suspense and slice-of-life all the way to literary fiction, we want to publish stories that engage, challenge, and strive to offer a unique perspective.
Fantasy
Fantasy has no shortage of sub-genres. At common place press, we embrace them all. We live for multi-layered characters, well-crafted magic systems, and skilful world-building. Those, are the kinds of stories we want to send
out into the world.
Contemporary romance
Love and the complexities of romantic relationships are rooted in some of the most universal emotions and experiences.
We want our stories to highlight the infinite shapes relationships and emotions can take, but above all, we want them to move you.
Our morals
common place press is a place of inclusivity. We are dedicated to a mindset of expansion, not limitation or separation.
We believe in equity, fairness, honesty, and transparency.
Any form of hatred or bigotry has no place here.
We are committed to listening to your concerns, feedback, and criticism to ensure we stay true to our intentions.
