Silurian Press is committed to helping authors tell their stories through publishing consulting services around book construction, distribution, and marketing.
Our model assumes the author keeps all publishing rights, and focuses on empowering authors to own their publishing process. We will help you identify what aspects of the publishing process you can do directly and finding appropriate experts to hire when necessary.
