So, you’re thinking about writing a book as an entrepreneur? It’s so exciting to hold that first copy in your
Most fiction authors are forced into one of two bad choices:
Do everything yourself, or give up control to someone else.
Fractured Ink Press exists because neither option works for serious authors.
• We do not rush books to market
• We do not publish everything submitted
• We do not upsell unnecessary services
• We do not separate publishing from reader trust
Every project is treated like a long-term asset, not a quick release.
Writing a series changes everything.
We support authors who are:
• Planning multi-book arcs
• Publishing connected worlds
• Managing continuity and reader expectations
• Building long-term discoverability
Series strategy is considered early, not after book one is already live.
With Fractured Ink Press:
• You approve all major decisions
• You keep your IP and rights
• You choose pacing and timelines
• You understand exactly what you’re paying for
No surprises. No rights grabs. No “trust us” contracts.
Think of us as your publishing partner, not your publisher of record.
We bring structure, experience, and execution so you can focus on writing without guessing your way through the rest.
Fractured Ink Press is a strong fit if:
• You want professional standards
• You value collaboration over shortcuts
• You’re building an author career, or desire the one book to have the best chance at gaining sales
It may not be a fit if:
• You want instant publication with minimal revision – that doesn’t benefit your long-term sales
• You want someone else to own the process entirely – we can help you do almost everything, except write
• You are looking for a traditional “advance” model – there’s reasons those don’t work (check out our blog articles)
