Publishing with Crafty Canuck

The Publishing Process
What Do We Publish

Fun, creative and educational stories for children that not only encourage a lifelong love of reading but an appreciation and desire to think and express themselves creatively.

As any parent knows, children definitely see 'the world' differently from adults. What we may dismiss as boring or assume to be easily understood by a child may in fact be the lightning rod for learning, development, creativity or just plain fun for a child. We believe that great ideas are all around us waiting to be tapped and shared. It is our hope that alongside your involvement and encouragement, we are able to play a small part in tapping and sharing those great ideas with children at home and around the world. As first time 'everything' ourselves, we welcome the opportunity work with other first-time or young authors.

As parents of two inquisitive, creative and fun young girls, every day we get the opportunity to see the world through their 'eyes', providing us with a wealth of ideas for all sorts of stories.

Publishing with Crafty - What You Need to Know

We are a small, family owned and operated publishing company who believe in:

  • charging no fees whatsoever to publish with us
  • allowing authors to maintain creative control over their work throughout the production process
  • working one and one, hand in hand with each author who chooses to publish with us
  • Using a small network of professionals who are responsible for provding the following services:
    • Editing and proofreading
    • Layout and Design
    • Illustration Services (if required)
  • the use of both offset and 'on demand' printing technologies depending upon several factors, including:
    • degree of author committment / involvement with marketing and promoting their book
    • degree of 'risk' associated with the book. For example, an unproven or even potentially controversial theme
    • desire to 'test the market'
