What makes Vasilisa Press different?
We're selective because we choose the stories we believe in, regardless of whether they are popular or expected.
All manuscripts that are requested will receive a review report from both our Director of Publishing and our Editor in Chief, even if we choose not to pursue publication of your novel. We don't believe in ghosting authors.
Why do you say you're almost trad?
We can't offer the major platform or perk of an advance that traditional publishers can, but we still function as close to a traditional publisher as an independent press can.
-
We take care of all editing, design, and marketing for you.
-
We are open and communicative, viewing our authors as team members.
-
We are selective, guaranteeing that our authors get as much one-on-one and individualized support as possible.
-
We offer higher royalties than a typical traditional publisher would offer to their authors.
