Welcome to Quill & Compass Publishing, an independent small press dedicated to authors, books and all the aspects of the publishing world.
We believe that profound storytelling takes many forms, which is why our doors are wide open to authors writing in any style, genre, or voice through our various imprints. Whether you are holding a rough or first-draft concept or a polished manuscript, we are here to support you at any stage of the creative process. Our goal is to bridge the gap between creative vision and the printed page, helping authors navigate the publishing journey to bring their lifelong dreams into reality.
At Quill & Compass, we do far more than just bring a final draft to print. We meet you exactly where you are on your writing journey. To make sure every author gets the perfect level of support, we offer two distinct pathways: Guided Publishing Services for authors who want a collaborative helping hand, and Full-Service Publishing for a complete, end-to-end, hands-off experience. No matter which path you choose, we’re here to navigate the process with you.
Your story is the journey; let us be your guide.
From thrilling narratives to insightful guides, explore our carefully curated collection of fiction, non-fiction, and children's literature.

A Message from Faith to Our Creative Community
"I founded Quill & Compass to prove that no barrier should stand in the way of a powerful story. Seeing two of our talented authors on the autism spectrum break through boundaries they once thought were impossible to become published authors is exactly why we exist. With the right support, encouragement, and a shared belief in your voice, your story can be told."
— Faith Spencer, Founder of Quill & Compass Publishing
