Your Story, Your Royalties
What Makes Harbor & Stone Different
Publishing companies keep a portion of your royalties… forever. At Harbor & Stone Press, we’re changing the game.
Here, each author pays an upfront, custom quote tailored to their needs. After that, your book and profit are yours, forever. That means no strings attached and no royalties taken from us.
You own your book. You keep 100% of the profit. We simply make sure it’s polished, professional, and ready for readers everywhere.
We also provide:
Audience access: Your book is shared with our ARC teams, beta teams, & bookstores.
Visibility: Your book is featured on our site permanently with links to purchase.
Support: Detailed guidance from our team so you never feel lost.
Marketing: Marketing is the heart of what we do at Harbor & Stone Press. We’ll navigate the process, together.
You keep the royalties. We funnel readers to you.
Real people helping indie authors:
When you work with Harbor & Stone Press, you’re not putting money into a billionaire CEO’s pocket. You’re supporting a small team of real people who are invested in your success.
We’re a team of professional editors, designers, and authors who’ve walked this path ourselves… not a faceless corporation. Every dollar goes back into helping stories thrive and helping our team support their families, whether that’s covering rent, buying groceries, or paying for their kids’ activities.
“I realized my true passion was helping authors navigate a system that often feels impossible to break into. With a Master’s in Communication and a background in publishing, I’ve seen firsthand how overwhelming this process can feel—and I built Harbor & Stone Press to change that.”

On Reedsy, you submit separate requests for each freelancer and wait for responses. Sometimes you’ll wait weeks just to line up your team. At Harbor & Stone Press, your entire team is ready from day one: editing, design, formatting, and marketing all move together on one streamlined timeline.
