What we stand for
Our Mission
Literary Fiction with Emotional Depth
We publish fiction that values character, atmosphere, language, memory, place, and the emotional truths that shape human lives.
Our Model
Author-Owned and Independent
Rain On The Sound Press was founded to give authors greater creative ownership, publishing independence, and a more personal alternative to traditional corporate publishing models.
Our Place
Rooted in the Pacific Northwest
Inspired by rain, water, forests, shorelines, and the quiet weather of the Sound, our press reflects the atmosphere and creative independence of the region we call home.
"Fiction that values character, atmosphere, and the emotional truths that shape human lives."
The Press
Books made with care. Stories built to last.
We are a small press with a singular focus: publishing literary fiction that matters, with authors who own their work.
We welcome submissions from writers working in literary fiction. If your work values voice, place, and emotional resonance over formula, we'd like to hear from you.
