The Regal Mandate

We are governed by our imperative to support and sustain the literary efforts of the authors we work with. With this in mind we take on a limited number of new authors a year, and are always interested in discovering new talent within the genres of literary fiction, contemporary fiction, historical fiction, memoirs, poetry collections, and short story collections. Through our imprint Fitzroy Books we publish MG and YA  fiction; House of Kel publishes sci-fi and fantasy; Pact Press, our social impact imprint, publishes works that promote diversity, inclusion, and acceptance. Unlike many publishing houses we accept manuscripts directly from the authors, without requiring an intervening literary agent. We believe not only in maintaining a degree of accessibility and open lines of communication between our staff editors and our authors, but we also desire to maximize the royalties received by our authors.

Our mandate is to seek, support, encourage, and disseminate literary talent that might otherwise remain unread for lack of publishing opportunity. Despite the dramatic upheavals within the publishing industry over the past few years, the traditional route still remains an arduous one for the new writer. We, at Regal House Publishing, are hoping to facilitate that process for talented writers whether they are first-time novelists or veteran authors.
