Small press

A small press is a independent publishing company that produces books, often focusing on niche topics, emerging authors, or innovative works. Unlike large commercial publishers, small presses typically operate with limited resources and smaller print runs, allowing for more creative freedom and specialized content. They often emphasize quality, unique voices, and diverse perspectives. Small presses play a vital role in the literary ecosystem by supporting new talent and publishing work that might not appeal to mainstream markets, fostering a vibrant, diverse literary culture.
