When was the last time you got lost in a novel? One that made you laugh in public, or text a friend, teary-eyed at 2:00 AM?
It’s hard to find those kinds of books. Most publishers repeat what already works instead of taking chances on original ideas. Even famous authors have books that go unpublished, simply because they “don’t fit the market.”
At Lost Island Press, we believe stories are more than just products. While big publishers make safe bets, we obsess over a handful of risky books that hurt in the best way.
So you can finally Get Lost again.
We don’t chase trends or celebrity names.
We don’t race publishers to get books out faster.
We find the risky, original stories that haunt us.
And we fight to get them into your hands.
This is Lost Island.
