Our Purpose

St. Pete Publishing exists to strengthen St. Petersburg’s rise as the Business, Art, and Entrepreneur Capital of the World. We believe the city’s future depends on its storytellers, its visionaries, creators, innovators, and leaders.

To shape that future, their voices must be amplified, preserved, and shared.

Publishing today is easier than ever, and that is exactly why credibility and quality matter more than ever. Our hybrid model blends accessibility with professional standards so every deserving voice can be elevated.

Accessible & Mission-Driven

We believe most voices deserve to be heard. Publishing with us costs only $500, making authorship attainable for entrepreneurs, professionals, and creators at every level. Have your voice heard.

Hybrid Publishing Model

We publish at a reduced cost and retain a percentage of royalties, creating a true partnership. This model supports authors while ensuring ongoing quality and sustainability.

A Community of Entrepreneurs

We treat authors as entrepreneurs. Each writer is the technician of their own manuscript, supported by our tools, guidance, and publishing standards. You are in control.

How Hybrid Publishing Works

Our system empowers creators while maintaining professional publishing quality:

Manuscript Development & Drafting
Authors are responsible for developing, writing, and editing their manuscripts. As an additional service, we provide educational tools, best practices, and structural guidance.
Quality Review
Once complete, the manuscript is submitted to St. Pete Publishing for evaluation. We ensure it meets our publishing standards and aligns with our mission.
Publishing Fee & Production
Upon approval, a $500 publishing fee is paid. We handle formatting, imprint branding, and release under St. Pete Publishing.
Royalties & Partnership
We retain a percentage of royalties, allowing us to invest in the long-term success of our authors while keeping entry costs low.
Marketing & Author Support
We assist authors in understanding book marketing fundamentals, and we actively help arrange events, signings, and promotional opportunities.

The Heart of St. Petersburg’s Storytelling Future

St. Pete Publishing is more than an imprint. It is a platform for civic identity and cultural impact. By elevating local voices, we strengthen the city’s business ecosystem, artistic identity, and entrepreneurial culture.

Every author we support becomes an ambassador of St. Petersburg’s future—one story at a time.

Your Story Deserves to Be Told

If you have a book, an idea, or a message that can help shape the future of St. Petersburg or beyond, we would be honored to work with you.
