From the Publisher
Books matter. Readers matter. Writers matter. As such, there is always a demand for new stories and new authors. Holand Press has been founded to help meet that demand.
Although we may be the new publishers on the block, there are two questions that we are most frequently asked. What type of books are you looking for? And what type of author are you looking for?
The short answer to the first question is that we are looking for good books. Books which the reader is compelled to turn the pages of. Part of the purpose of a book is to make someone want to read another book (preferably a Holand Press title). We are looking to publish books, both fiction and non-fiction, which resonate or introduce audiences to brave, new worlds. Books which entertain and inform, as well as maybe even edify. Books which will reach and satisfy their readership.
Also, for a more pragmatic answer, we are looking to publish titles in a number of commercial genres: Crime/thrillers, history books, memoir/biography, historical and literary fiction. Do please check out our FAQs and submissions page for further information.
Mainstream houses and independent presses are releasing fewer titles and arguably taking fewer risks. It’s a problem for publishing, one which Holand Press intends to help solve.
As to the second question – what kind of authors are we looking for? – the short answer is those who wish to be read and are willing to work to reach their audience. We not afraid of shaping and amplifying new voices. Debut writers matters, and we are keen to help raise their sales and profile. But, as most gems need polishing, most debut authors need to be open to being edited and taking advice on promoting their work.
We are, of course, receptive to hearing from established authors. You may want to publish outside your normal genre. As well as looking to the future, we are mindful of the past. Previously released books can be republished and repromoted. We will consider publishing backlist titles. You may also be an author who has self-published, who wants to find a larger readership. We are happy to consider such authors. Please note that we are not a vanity press, however.
