About Blue Leaf Publications

Blue Leaf Publications is committed to publishing quality works from both experienced and promising new talent.

A royalty-paying small press, we typically publish two to six print and/or electronic titles per year using digital printing and distribution systems.

Authors who submit to BLP are not charged fees to have their work published. Our income is derived primarily through book sales (which is one reason why we are so selective with the works we accept for publication).
