Dear Friends and Fellow Readers,

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our new publishing company, Dressed In Love Press! Our mission is to share stories that resonate with the heart and soul, focusing on projects that align with a Christian worldview and prioritize clear, engaging reads. 

At Dressed In Love Press, we believe in the power of storytelling to uplift, inspire, and foster understanding. We are particularly passionate about amplifying the voices of marginalized individuals and sharing narratives that reflect a diverse range of experiences and perspectives. 

Currently, we are focusing our efforts on publishing high-quality material in various genres, including Christian Living, children’s literature, romance, and suspense. Our goal is to curate a collection of works that not only entertain but also inspire and educate our readers.

We are currently not accepting unsolicited queries. Instead, we are investing in projects from talented individuals we’ve encountered at various conferences and events. Our goal is to build a community of authors who share our vision and commitment to producing uplifting content.

We look forward to embarking on this exciting journey and are eager to bring meaningful stories to life. Thank you for your support as we strive to make a positive impact in the publishing world.

Stay tuned for updates, insights, and sneak peeks into our upcoming projects!
