Cottage House Publishing & Author Services
An indie publishing house based in Lakeland, FL.
A passion for storytelling…
Cottage House Publishing is a company founded by two English teachers with a passion for good storytelling – whatever those stories might be!
Celebrating Local & Small Writers
Central Florida is a growing hub of talented artists and writers. We want to showcase them!
We also want to give a platform to previously unpublished or limited published authors.
Small Business Benefits
Because we remain a small business, authors get personalized attention. We want to help authors personally and promote them actively.
Clean Content
Our goal is to publish content that is age-appropriate and enjoyable to read without worrying about content!
Creative Control
Some authors want to pursue traditional publishing but fear losing creative control – we leave the control in your hands! We help edit and promote, but the control of the work is yours!
A La Carte Professional Services
We offer in-house editing, design, and marketing resources for purchase individually for authors who do not want extensive publishing services.
Individualized Packages
We offer different publishing packages as well as a la carte options so that authors can choose what’s important to them.
*Certain packages are restricted to invite-only
