Our Story
Pen X Press was founded on a simple conviction: that authors deserve a publisher who treats the book as both a literary work and a designed object. We acquire selectively, edit deeply, and design with care — so the books we make are read, kept, and passed down.
Mission
To champion distinctive voices and turn manuscripts into enduring works of literature.
Vision
A future where independent publishing leads the conversation — by craft, not by algorithm.
Founder & Publisher
20 years in independent publishing.
Editor-in-Chief
Formerly at Faber & Faber.
Creative Director
Award-winning book designer.
Transparent royalties, rights you keep, and a partnership that lasts beyond launch day.
Every manuscript receives developmental, line, and copy editing by senior editors.
Books built to be kept — cloth-bound, foil-stamped, archival paper.
We invest beyond the launch week with press, events, and bookseller relationships.
