THE LEGACY

Ink & Legacy Publishing™ was built for authors who are done waiting for permission to tell their story.

Your manuscript may be finished and ready for production. Your story may still be living in your chest, waiting to be written. Either way, we have a path designed for exactly where you are.

And no matter which path you choose, one thing never changes: you keep 100% of your royalties. Always.

FAQs

Do I need a finished manuscript to apply?

No. The Legacy package includes co-writing support. If your story exists but the pages don't yet, we can help you get there.

Do you publish all genres?

We currently publish memoir, narrative nonfiction, fiction, self-help, business, and children's literature. We do not publish horror or science fiction at this time.

How long does the publishing process take?

Timelines vary by package and manuscript stage, but most projects move from contract to publication in 4–9 months.

Yes. Authors published through Ink & Legacy Publishing™ keep full ownership of their intellectual property.

Will I retain rights to my book?
Do you work with first-time authors?

Absolutely. Many of our most powerful stories come from first-time authors who simply needed the right publishing partner to believe in them.
