I missed the announcement. So glad I caught this post. Congrats!! Cheering you on over here! And when I’ve got a book proposal all typed up, I’ll send it your way. (That might be a while from now… but still excited!)
When I started Cinnamon Press lots of people said 'you can't just start a press with no resources' -- this year Cinnamon is celebrating 20 years. You can do this and people will help :)
I agree, you can definitely do this. Thank you for sharing your experience with us. I'm sure it's terrifying, but you have the right approach and your heart is in it. I don't have any resources to share, but maybe in the future, I'll be able to help in some way. In any case, count me in as a cheerleader on the sidelines, supporting you all the way. May GWP thrive and flourish.
Thanks for letting us share in your (very understandable) apprehension/excitement/all the feels, Robin. Standing with you and cheering you on, too. 🩵🩷🤍
My friend Robin, even if you don't have experience, you do have determination. And I think that I've gotten to know you well enough to know that you can make it happen.
Congratulations!! You are facing your fears and taking actions. That, is so exciting! I look forward to watching you grow.

Well that's exciting, too, Jazmine! I can't wait to learn more about your writing.

The outpouring of support I've already gotten has been pretty incredible. You included, Jan. Thank you. ❤️

Such great work to take on! I'm so impressed.
I recommend checking out Galiot Press run by Anjali Mitter Duva and Henriette Lazaridis, https://galiotpress.substack.com/
They have a lot of experience running a small press and also helping other publishers. I could make that connection if you'd like.
If you're thinking of running Kickstarter campaign for your books, Russell Nohelty at https://www.theauthorstack.com/ is the expert on that.
Thank you, Rey! I'll definitely check out Galiot. They sound like my kind of people. And yeah, Russell knows his stuff for sure!

Thanks, Keith. Big changes come with big emotions, and it's comforting to share them with you.

I think you might be right about that!
I am so excited about what you're doing.
Me too, Sarah! Thanks for sharing the excitement with me.
