How does our pre-order work?

Titles are made available for pre-order for a period of 10 business days before first printing.

Turnaround time for receipt of these first printings from ordering to receipt is generally 2–3 weeks, though this may vary if we encounter unexpected delays in the manufacturing process. To check the progress of a pre-order title, click here.

Who are our pre-order partners?

The people who order the first 100 copies will be credited in the book as a thank you. If you do not wish to be named, please email admin@somekindpress.com

What do we mean by profit share?

Rather than working to a fixed royalty rate, our authors work for the majority share of the profit of each book sold. Contributors such as designers, editors, photographers, illustrators and writers also work for a minority share in the profit of each title. This way, you’re not only helping venues, but also creatives in your community.
