Great Stories Deserve a Fair Path to Publication
An independent small press partnering with creators for high-quality production
What We Do
Kittery Publishing is an independent small press focused on developing and publishing distinctive, well-crafted books. We combine experienced editorial judgment with modern production tools to help great stories reach their audience.
We’ve reimagined the publishing model. By trading traditional advances for significantly higher royalties, we ensure creators are true partners in their book’s success. We combine close editorial craftsmanship with modern AI-assisted workflows to provide a professional, transparent path to market.
What We Publish
What we’re working on now
Our current catalog centers on illustrated and family-friendly titles, including children’s picture books that combine humor, heart, and visual storytelling.
Where we’re headed
As the studio grows, we plan to expand into additional genres—such as science fiction and other speculative work—where strong voice, world-building, and editorial craftsmanship are essential.
How We Work
We believe publishing works best when creators are treated as partners.
Our process emphasizes:
- Close editorial collaboration
- Professional production and distribution
- Transparent royalty structures
- Selective use of modern tools, including AI-assisted workflows, to improve speed and accessibility without compromising quality
