New England has a long literary tradition, but today’s authors need more than tradition to compete.
A professionally published book needs strong editorial work, distinctive design, reliable distribution, and a thoughtful marketing plan. It also needs a publishing model that makes sense for the author.
Seacoast Press is an award-winning New England hybrid publisher headquartered in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. We serve authors throughout New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Vermont, and across the United States.
Our publishing model is built for writers who want professional support while retaining ownership of their work.
Why Authors Choose Hybrid Publishing
Traditional publishing can be difficult to access. Authors may spend considerable time querying literary agents and publishers without knowing whether their manuscript will ever reach the marketplace.
Independent publishing provides greater control, but it can leave the author responsible for assembling and managing editors, designers, formatters, distributors, and marketers.
Hybrid publishing offers another approach.
At Seacoast Press, authors can work with an experienced publishing team while retaining their rights, maintaining creative involvement, and receiving 100% of their royalties.
That combination appeals to authors who want professional guidance without giving away the long-term value of their work.
Professional Publishing From Start to Finish
A successful publishing process should feel coordinated.
Our team can assist with professional editing, custom book design, interior formatting, ebook preparation, distribution, and marketing.
We do not believe authors should have to become publishing experts simply because they have written a book.
Instead, our job is to help authors understand the process, make informed decisions, and move their manuscripts toward publication with a clear plan.
New England Roots. National Distribution.
Seacoast Press is proud to be a New England publisher, but our books are built for a much larger marketplace.
Titles can be distributed through leading retail channels, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Books-A-Million, Target.com, Walmart.com, and other booksellers.
Authors receive the accessibility of a regional publishing company without limiting the potential audience for their books.
Marketing Beyond Publication
For authors who want to build visibility, Seacoast Press offers a range of book marketing opportunities.
Campaigns may include Amazon bestseller positioning, publicity, digital advertising, social media promotion, and media coverage on NBC, CBS, and FOX affiliate websites.
These services are designed to help authors move beyond simply having a book available for purchase.
The goal is to create opportunities for the book to be discovered.
