Picture this: a ragtag crew of nerds with keyboards and too much caffeine, banding together to build something bigger than themselves.

Shadow Light Press is a family-run indie publishing house built by authors, for authors. We started as a scrappy team of writers, editors, and artists publishing our own stories. Then more friends and storytellers joined . Now we’re a growing community with one mission: bring great books into the light. We handle digital, print, audio, and beyond.

We believe in hands-on author support.

Our mission is simple: treat every author the way we’d want to be treated. We know what it's like out there, and we know how powerful it can be to have a team.

No corporate mumbo-jumbo. Just relentless support, fierce dedication, and a deep belief in our authors and the power of stories to change lives.

Watch our corporate introductory video to learn more about our culture.

We’re fans of our fellow indies and we are author-first. If we’re not the right fit for an author, we do our best to help them find the one that is. There are so many fantastic publishers out there, each with their unique strengths.

But it’s crazy, right?

Isn’t this supposed to be a doggy-dog world?

Not when you find your people and realize that a rising tide lifts all boats.

We never lose sight of why we do this: stories matter.
