NORTHERN
WRITING
Our mission is to raise the profile of northern writers, offering unrepresented and diverse voices a platform to demonstrate their writing.
​​
We're interested exclusively in Crime Fiction for our initial releases. Though our editorial tastes bridge the smorgasbord of the crime fiction genre, from police procedural to cosy-crime, as well as genre-bending sci-fi, fantasy, and romance. We're seeking diverse narratives with strong regional accents, a firm identity of place, and bold northern characters.
DIGITAL
PUBLISHING
Digital publishing is the fastest-growing arm of the publishing industry, innovations in technology and our reading habits have shifted dramatically from print to digital since
the ealry-2000s.
​
While print is still a vital part of our publishing process, we feel that an agile and robust approach to ebook and print-on-demand can offer our authors an unbeatable level of sales and creative control over their work.
