The Quality Voice in Fiction

About Me

Ceud Mile Failte! One hundred thousand welcomes to our MySpace page. Now over three years old, HIGHLAND PRESS PUBLISHING is dedicated to giving our readers quality fiction. To that end, our goal is to bring outstanding books by outstanding authors.Our foremost goal will always be to give readers historical fiction like we all fell in love with in the 'old' days, YET please note that HIGHLAND PRESS PUBLISHING welcomes submissions from ALL genres except erotica. For those readers who love historicals, we hope to offer you books with actual history in them. We know the audience is out there for this type of book and hope to bring this beloved format back to our readers.Nevertheless, while we love historicals and historical romances, we are looking for just about every genre. In addition to our romances, we now have our new Inspirational/Family line, Young Adult, Women's Fiction, Men's Fiction and Children's Illustrated books, Romantic Suspense and Mystery/Suspense. We're actively looking to expand our current Regency and Inspirational/Family lines, as well as adding additional romantic suspense and mystery/suspense.Our primary goal is paperback books. However, in addition to our trade size books, we are now also releasing some of them as downloadable e-books, for people who prefer that format. We hope you'll join us to reach that goal.We've made many changes at Highland Press lately. However, as always, we offer our authors complete editing and cover art services, and we pay royalties based on retail sales.Check us out at http://www.highlandpress.org
