The Publishing House
Our Mission
We exist to champion authentic storytelling—stories that uplift, reflect real human experience, and leave readers better than they found them.
As a hybrid publisher, we work in close partnership with authors, offering professional guidance, ethical publishing practices, and a shared investment in each book’s success.
Why WV Publications?
This side of our business is separate from our coaching and editing services. As a boutique, highly selective publishing house, we publish a limited number of authors each year and partner with those whose work and goals align with a collaborative, mutually beneficial relationship.
What Hybrid Publishing Means at Well Versed Publications
At Well Versed Publications, we operate as a hybrid publishing house. We believe transparency matters, so we want to be clear about what that means—and what it does not mean—for our authors.
Hybrid publishing is a partnership model. Unlike traditional publishing, where the publisher assumes all financial risk, or self-publishing, where the author carries it alone, hybrid publishing allows both the publisher and author to invest in bringing a book to life.
In practice, this means:
- We publish selectively and do not accept every manuscript
- We uphold professional editorial and production standards
- Authors may contribute financially to the publishing process
- Authors earn royalties and retain copyright
We work collaboratively, with shared responsibility and shared goals
