8d Press is currently NOT accepting any submissions. We are working, at this time, with Scottish crime writer David McGuire to get his novel The Hangman ready for publication, plus we are working on selling our titles, so we can move forward with publishing new writers.
As a small Scottish press, we need to sell our books to continue our work as a small press publisher. So the best way to support Scottish publishing, and an exquisite small press, such as 8d Press, is to buy our books, directly through us on this site. We're a great believer though in supporting independent bookshops.
Our favourite indie bookshop is Topping's Booksellers in Edinburgh. They are huge supporters of 8d Press, as we are of them, so make sure you visit them at 2 Blenheim Place, Edinburgh,Midlothian, EH7 5JH - (0131) 546 4202 - edinburgh@toppingbooks.co.uk - Topping's Booksellers stock most of our books, and will be happy to order our books in, to ship to you.
Become 'friends' with 8d Press, and get to know us, and there is a much higher chance of us willing to work with you, if you are a talented writer.
Our modus operandi is based on the personal, face-to-face, phone call chats, rather than endless and pointless email back-and-forth.
We're old school and keep the online world firmly in its place, preferring real-life interactions over online ones.
You can support 8d Press by becoming a subscriber and/or following us on our socials. Drop to the grey box on this page and click through to each of our socials to see which one interests you.
We recommend becoming a free or paid subscriber on Substack - you'll find the Substack link, second on the list under the Contact Us tab. We appreciate you. 8d Press xx
