Hello. I founded and run Pen & Pad Publishing LLC, a small indie press in Washington, DC. I love a good story and started the company in 2010 to give voice to the amazing storytellers and writers I found myself in the company of but who had few outlets to successfully get their literary works turned into published novels. 

Pen & Pad Publishing is committed to bringing fresh, original voices with innovative, gripping writing styles to readers. We publish fiction, poetry and children's books, and accept manuscripts electronically all year long through our website www.penpadpublishing.com 

We provide a platform for new or established literary voices that gets the attention of major U.S. and UK book distributors, including Ingram, Baker & Taylor and Bertrams; online retailers like Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and Books-A-Million; and e-readers such as the Kindle and Nook.
