We’re a team of storytellers obsessed with understanding, deconstructing, and reimagining what it means to be human.
Who
We Are
“Freeing yourself was one thing, claiming ownership of that freed self was another. ”
— Toni Morrison, Beloved
Why
We Exist
What’s the opportunity?
Big publishing is riddled with complexity, delay, financial investment, and headaches. Most authors don’t have years—or thousands of dollars—to invest in trying to get their story published.
Why Left Field?
We love good literature, and we aim to support talented authors from all walks of life. Our business model is designed to bear the up-front financial risk. As such, we cover all publishing costs, and we provide honest, equitable royalty rates. With high standards and meticulous attention to detail, we support every step of the journey.
Great literature deserves the backing of a great team.
What
We Do
We’re a full-service publisher, not a vanity press.
For our contracted authors, we manage all the work (and cover all the costs) of publication while providing an equitable royalty rate. We never charge an author for any aspect of the publishing process, and all the specifics are clearly outlined in our contracts.
Because we think clear is kind (well, and honest).
