Publishing Services

What is Goldfinch Publishing?

Goldfinch already provides support, teaching, advice and services related to creative writing. We are now moving into offering direct support and services to authors in publishing. This includes two main routes:

Traditional publishing: we invite submissions from authors interested in being published by Goldfinch Publishing. This is a new venture, in which we anticipate publishing just one or two books in 2026. Refer to our submissions guidelines for details of what we are looking for. We believe that a traditional route with one of the big publishers is not right for every book, and that many great stories deserving of publication may be better served by a smaller press. If we take on your project, we will work with you in editing, production, printing and publication. We will not ask for financial contribution from our authors. Our return on investment will come from a share of the royalties from book sales.
Author services: we offer support services to those taking a self-publishing route. These are paid services, distinct and separate from the traditional publishing described above. Self publishing is a viable and potentially rewarding option for many authors, but there are elements of the process that not all writers are suited to, and this is where we can help. From proofreading, typesetting and cover design, through to eBook and print book production and launch, we will engage the right professionals and walk with you through the process.
