A Dream: Starting a Book Imprint under Bindery for Marginalised Authors and Diversity in Cottagecore Books

What is the Purpose of Chanterelle Solace in Bindery?

Chanterelle Solace in Bindery aims to one day be a Bindery Book Imprint, which means we would be able to publish books by marginalised authors, books with diversity and more! This would aim to focus on books in Fantasy, Sci-Fi and Horror

More about Marginalised Authors and Diversity in Cottagecore Books

We have a few books with diversity in Cottagecore in general but we don’t see it commonly and we all know it is harder for BiPOC authors to advertise and get their work out there to readers, OR even to just get it published in the first place!

We need to see more Cottagecore Books that include MCs who are a picture of us, and if it was me in a book, well you’d have:

  • Neurodiverse

  • Deaf/Hard of hearing

  • Muslim and hijabi MC

So join us in changing the industry one step at a time!


How do Content Creators Publish in Bindery?

Bindery is a community based publishing company! Essentially content creators are called Tastemakers on Bindery and there are two forms of them:

  • Tastemakers: This is when a content creator creates a page on bindery and it acts as a newsletter plus membership tiers (think Patreon, Ko-Fi, substack) that you pay for monthly for certain perks and to support the content creator at the cost of a cup of coffee (or less, in this economy!),

  • Publishers: When you are a larger Tastemaker, you may be invited to publish books with Bindery as an imprint. We say large because in order to publish books, compensate the authors fairly you need to have a community rallying behind you and supporting the book too!
