Inspired Quill is an independent UK publishing house striving to set new industry standards.
Creating A New Generation of Diverse Literature: Find Yourself in Our Pages
Inspired Quill is a traditional, indie press setting new standards for how publishers should work – eco-friendly, people-orientated and focused on inclusive, quality publishing.
We’ve been a social enterprise since our inception in 2011, which means that we’re always thinking of ways to give back to our communities. This includes pledging profit percentages to charity, running subsidised workshops and mentoring schemes, and donating books to those who may not otherwise have access to them.
Although we’re a small publisher based in the UK, our amazing authors and team live across the entire globe, and we attend plenty of international events, too.
If you’re looking to get published in a supportive, professional environment which aims to meet your personal and creative needs without treating you like a meal ticket, OR if you’re an avid reader looking for something new, exciting, and blazing a trail away from the fads and fashions of mainstream media houses, IQ is the place for you!
So sit back with your favourite beverage, grab your nearest paperback or ebook (we love both!) and delve into the worlds created by the amazing minds here at Inspired Quill.
