At our little literary oasis, we’re all about dishing out a smorgasbord of worldly words that tickle the fancy of tykes, teens, and everyone else who’s young at heart. We don’t just publish books; we launch literary fiestas that shimmy their way into the pop culture conga line. Whether you’re knee-high to a grasshopper or as long in the tooth as an ancient tome, we’ve got a page-turner with your name on it—probably not literally, but hey, who doesn’t love a good metaphor?

Ishmael Tree Publishing – Your timeless literary stronghold in the wild, wild web of modern-day publishing. Fondly clinging to our cherished old-school publishing rituals like a koala to a eucalyptus, we run a tight ship when it comes to manuscript submissions. Due to a mystical blend of legal mumbo-jumbo and our editorial team’s fragile zen, we’re tickled pink to only entertain submissions that come to us via the well-worn inboxes of literary agents – the noble gatekeepers of the written word.

By insisting on agent-only submissions, Ishmael Tree ensures that the manuscripts it considers for publication are curated, aligning with the house’s standards of quality, integrity, and marketability. This method streamlines the selection process, enabling our editors to devote their full attention to each potential publication, fostering a more personal and effective relationship with the authors we eventually choose to represent.

Prospective authors seeking representation with Ishmael Tree are encouraged to secure a literary agent who understands their vision and has the expertise to present their manuscript in a manner that aligns with our publishing philosophy. This collaboration between author, agent, and publisher is crucial in navigating the intricate journey from manuscript to the printed page, ensuring that every book we publish is not just a product, but a testament to the collective passion and effort of everyone involved.

Libraries: not just dusty shelves and the haunting shush of stern librarians! Imagine a paradise where Wi-Fi flows as freely as the coffee in a hipster café and books stack up higher than the laundry pile on laundry day. That’s what community centers—oops, we mean libraries—are for!

What’s on the menu, you ask? A smorgasbord of books so diverse, your mind’s taste buds will be zinging! We’ve got everything from the tear-jerking memoirs of authors who have experienced more drama than a soap opera marathon, to the mind-bending novels of writers who probably think reality is a mere suggestion.

Heck, we’re practically the United Nations of Literature over here! Ready for a world tour between two covers? Buckle up, bookworms!

Now, while we do love an echo, we’d much rather hear what you think. So, if the spirit moves you—and we’re not just talking about the ones haunting the ancient history section—drop us a line with your two cents. We accept feedback in the form of interpretative dance, Morse code, carrier pigeon, or the good ol’ suggestion box. Your call!
