It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Why small press publishing?

By being a small press, we are able to put extra care into each and every one of our projects and are able to push the boundaries of books and zines. We aim to amplify voices of small creators using our platform.

We are two people that bring our projects to life, and we handle everything from design, pre-press and bindery. We are open about our entire process and have an open studio for appointments on learning more about MP.

  • There are a few ways we can publish your work.

    One way is we can simply print a full run of your project and deliver all of them to you. This would guarantee that you would make 100% of your profits as you would be distributing all of your zines yourself.

    We also offer distribution, where we would print a full run of your work and then deliver 50% of the zines to you for your own distribution. For the other 50%, we buy them back from you at cost and then distribute through our lanes selling your work at an agreed upon price. This will allow your zines to reach a larger audience then one person or organization can.

    For smaller works, we often hold submissions for anthology magazines where you can get your work published for visually no cost. We offer honorariums for artists and guarantee you a copy of your published work. We distribute our anthology magazines 100% ourselves.

    We publish work on a sliding scale depending on the project. Please reach out for a quote or for more info.

  • We sell zines through many avenues including local and nationwide stores, markets around the country and our online store. By publishing your work with us we will take your work to shows and distribute to a large audience.

  • Publishing your work can be daunting, but we want to make your dream of getting your work out to your audience work for you. We are flexible on quantity, production and rates depending on your project. We try our best to pick the right avenue for bringing your work to life.

    We do want to note that not every project is right for Risograph printing. Please see our details on printing for more information on the process. That being said, please feel free to reach out about any questions about the process of turning your work into a published Risograph project.
