I’m focusing on UK based publishers of adult fiction, short stories and poetry. I’ll update my master list as I go along (or I’ll try too) but this fortnightly list will give a more personalised shout out.

Each entry features a sample book cover which clicks through to the website. The accompanying ‘about’ information is taken from each publishers website at the time I put this post together.

If you know of publishers I’ve missed or want to help update my master list then please add details in the comments.

Due to the pandemic, we’re all aware that times have been tough for indie bookshops and publishers, so obviously, if you can buy direct from them that benefits them more. Not all publishers offer online ordering so you might want to consider using Bookshop.org or Hive Books.co.uk – both of which offer a percentage of the sale to a bricks-and-mortar bookshop.

So here we go with ?

Sacristy Press

Sacristy Press is a small, independent publishing house based in Durham (UK). We publish theology and history, including historical fiction. Our small-but-growing selection of books and e-books are all available to browse and buy through this website.

Salt

Salt is one of UK’s foremost independent publishers, committed to the discovery and publication of contemporary British literature. We are advocates for writers at all stages of their careers and ensure that diverse voices can be heard in an abundant, global marketplace. 

We believe books are key to developing an imaginative life, and that the imagination is key to being fully human. We intend to make a positive difference to readers’ lives.

We also believe books cannot succeed without being discovered, so we invest heavily in finding audiences through direct engagement, through the quality of our editing, design and manufacturing, and through creative sales, communication and publicity. Good publishing is participative and inclusive, yet dependent on judgement and, of course, you, the reader. 

Salt was founded in 1999. Our first publications were poetry and we rapidly developed an award-winning international list. We went on to win the Nielsen Innovation Award in the IPG’s Independent Publishing Awards in 2008 for our work in taking poetry to new audiences. Salt’s publishing soon expanded to include children’s poetry, Native American poetry, Latin American poetry in translation, poetry criticism, essays, literary companions, biography, theatre studies, writers’ guides and poetry chapbooks as well as a ground-breaking series of eBook novellas. By the end of 2010 we had published over 1,000 products and sold them internationally.

In 2011, we began to focus our efforts on developing our fiction list. Since that time we have achieved considerable critical success in numerous literary awards, including winning the Polari First Book Prize (three times), the Jerwood Fiction Uncovered Award (twice) and the Frank O’Connor International Short Story Award. Most notably, we have twice been nominated for the Man Booker Prize and shortlisted in the Costa Book Awards.

Today, Salt is considered one of UK’s leading independent publishers – a growing business that has an international impact.

Silkworms Ink

Silkworms Ink began as a one-man-project in March 2010, when James Harringman began publishing poetry and fiction chapbooks online. From the off, the idea was to deliver exciting, intelligent new writing without the apologetic appearance of disposable ephemera that so many people settle for on the internet.

It took about a month for word to spread. Submissions started coming in from all over the world – from America, Pakistan, France, Ireland. The inbox bulged, and Silkworms Ink became a team-effort.

Jon Ware, Sam Kinchin-Smith and Phil Brown were brought in as editors and Silkworms became a digital publisher of eclectica, a purveyor of literary mixtapes, and a weekly-themed quasi-magazine featuring daily instalments of critical writing on Poetry, Fiction, Music and now-infamous ‘Wider Reading,’ without stopping publishing weekly selections from the exponentially growing number of chapbook submissions.

Splice

Splice is a venture with a lot of moving parts, but there are three main pillars that support its work, each one operating at a different pace to the others…

Splice is a small press

Every two years, we publish three collections of short stories to showcase the work of three outstanding writers. Each collection stands on its own, but we hope that their shared aesthetic will encourage you to listen out for the harmonies and discords between all three. Once the three collections have been released, the work of the three authors will be brought together in an anthology. We also publish a novel during this period.

Splice is an online review

The review is the steady pulse underlying the occasional output of the small press. New material usually goes live online every Monday and Wednesday, including at least one in-depth book review (around 2,000 words) and either another review or an interview with an author, translator, or editor. Although we’ll feature the work of guest contributors here and there, most of our reviews will come from our masthead contributors and some will come from our small press authors.

Importantly, most reviews will spotlight a recent title published by another small press. By devoting close attention and consideration to small press publications, Splice aims to shed light on the lasting value they possess beyond the minimal worth suggested by their market price. They cost very little, but often they mean a lot, and our hope is that good, insightful criticism can do justice to the qualities that can’t be accounted for in pounds and pence. Ultimately, then, Splice exists to attract adventurous readers to the innovative and unconventional works of literature that exist outside the publishing mainstream — works that usually come into being from writers and publishers involved in Britain’s community of small presses.

Splice is an anthology

At the end of each two-year period, the three authors showcased via the small press come together in anthology in which they “splice” their work with the work of another writer. Each author will contribute some previously unpublished material, and each one will select and introduce the work of another writer who they believe deserves more attention. These three new writers will contribute their own material to the anthology — some fresh, some previously published — and then they’ll be brought into the Splice stable, commissioned to publish new work in future and to nominate new and interesting writers of their own.

In essence, the anthology functions as a way of consolidating the Splice community and broadening its scope. It’s intended to capture the attention of readers we haven’t reached yet, and then to intersect with the online review by directing their attention to the valuable titles published throughout the small press community.

Stairwell Books

Stairwell Books is a Small Press publisher who specialises in good writing from new writers.

There has been a sea change in the landscape of publishing which has seen patterns of ownership adjust in line with many other business areas where institutional ownership requires more guaranteed and higher returns. In turn large publishing houses are less able to gamble on new authors.

This slack is being taken up by small private publishers who can find and print the next generation of authors. Stairwell Books is well placed with a stable of fancied winners drawn mainly from the York and Yorkshire region. None the less, we cannot turn down good writing, wherever it is found so our list contains a writer or two from around the world.

We are now looking for writing that touches on big themes, brings new insight into ourselves and our past and for today’s filmic generation is both literary and visual.
