Welcome to the Homepage of Comely Bank Publishing. Comely Bank Publishing aims to create opportunities for local Edinburgh-area authors to publish works of interest using 21st century publishing options, including ebooks and print on demand.
Too many authors are failing to have their works published because publishers and publishing agents have become too cautious, grasping at poorer-quality work simply because it carries the name of an established author or a bankable name such as a reality TV star, and that the future of literature can only be saved if bright new talent is nurtured as it used to be. Comely Bank Publishing helps its portfolio of authors by offering them assistance to publish at low cost. Currently we concentrate on fiction, including short fiction, although we are open to other work as well. We look to develop a new concept of "community publishing", focusing on developing sales and publicity in the local Edinburgh area, and if books are successful, into the wider Scottish market. Comely Bank Publishing does not make profits out of its authors, but looks to form a group who help each other develop, and as a result we can afford to be open-minded about what we publish. By developing the brand Comely Bank Publishing as a sort of 'Quality mark', we hope the success of one author will sprinkle a little stardust on all the rest.
