Muse Literary

Independent. Traditional. Bespoke.

Muse Literary is a small, independent publishing house with a singular purpose: to empower writers by offering a publishing model that values both literary excellence and financial success.

We created Muse Literary to challenge the status quo - to build a publishing house where writers are seen as partners, not just content creators.

We believe authors deserve more—more royalties, more profits, and more control over their publishing journey.

Muse Literary was founded by writers, is run by writers, and puts the needs of our writers first throughout the entire publishing process.

At Muse Literary, we recognize that every book is a unique creation, shaped by the author's vision and refined through a collaborative process.

From the moment a manuscript is submitted, it enters a carefully guided journey where multiple elements come together to bring the story to life.

Unlike many traditional publishers, we believe success shouldn’t come at the expense of the author—it should be built alongside them..
