Renée Press is a small, independent publisher dedicated to quiet philosophy, open educational resources, and public domain works, all made with care. While much of our catalog is curated in-house, we welcome proposals that align with our mission and aesthetic.

What We’re Looking For

We are open to:

• Public domain works in philosophy or adjacent fields that deserve renewed life
• New writing that complements our focus on accessibility, inclusion, or philosophical wonder
• Open educational resources and scholarly editions intended for broad, thoughtful readerships

We are not currently seeking conventional academic monographs, polemics, or works requiring extensive marketing infrastructure.

Submission Requirements

• Please submit a complete, edited manuscript along with a short proposal (no more than one page)
• Your proposal should describe:
  • What the work is and why it matters
  • How it fits René Press’s mission or series (e.g., The Camellia Series)
  • Whether the work is public domain, Creative Commons, or original
• Preferred formats: .docx, .odt, or .pdf
• Email submissions to our contact address with the subject line: Manuscript Submission

We are a small team and review submissions with care. Please allow up to eight weeks for a response. At this time, René Press operates on a profit share model and does not offer advances; however, we provide comprehensive design, ISBN registration, and support for distribution.

Thank you for considering René Press. We look forward to reading your work.
