Wow, Brooke. You continue to amaze me with your vision and energy. I think you're starting the West Coast version of the Big Five, and huge congratulations to you and your new collaboration! Proud to be among your authors!
As a She Writes Press author the thing I like about this the most, besides the horse jokes (Neigh! Whinny!) is the West Coast "hoof" you're planting. As a Western writer, I do think there is a bias in the Big Five that prefers Eastern or Southern writers. Or if that sounds too pouty, how about: Western writers suffer from a lack of connection and who-you-know familiarity. So, cool. Also, as a writer who may not want to stick to my lane, I'm glad there are now other imprints you can introduce me to if I write something far afield from my current work. Also, final point: so glad you personally will have ever so many more creative minds to work with day in and day out. That's gonna be fun.
Brooke—this is wonderful news for you, authors, and readers. You continue to impress with your vision, enthusiasm, and energy. (So much so that I'm wondering why I ever thought traditional publishing was better than hybrid.) Congratulations!
I love to see ways that the publishing industry is innovating and transforming, offering new opportunities for writers, readers and industry professionals alike. Good on all of you! And I love the Stable name too - it instantly felt ‘homey’.
This is so exciting. Congratulations! One question, at least for the moment: Will Trafalgar Square Books continue to be devoted to all things equestrian?

“Thought partnership” — I like that. Let’s do this.

😻 Thanks, Jillian. This made me laugh.
This is very exciting Brooke! Congratulations 🎉. I would be thrilled to join your stable of writers.
Congratulations Brooke! Love the name and the vision!

Super exciting, Brooke, for you and us authors! Congratulations!

Congratulations, Brooke!
Congratulations on this natural next move for SWP, hybrid publishing and the independent spirit you foster in the publishing world.
Congratulations to all!
This is so exciting. Congratulations! One question, at least for the moment: Will Trafalgar Square Books continue to be devoted to all things equestrian?
It will be, yes. None of us are changing our missions or what we publish. That's not at all the intention behind the collaboration. Thanks for asking!
Mazel tov! this sounds great for you, authors and the industry as well.
