Brother Mockingbird

About

At Brother Mockingbird Publishing, we believe in the power of connection—between writers, readers, and the stories that bring them together.
We are a small, independent press dedicated to discovering talented authors and helping them bring their work to life. Every book we publish is the result of collaboration, care, and a shared love of storytelling.
Our team combines years of traditional publishing experience with modern, innovative approaches to reach readers in fresh and meaningful ways. We don’t measure success by the number of titles we release but by the quality and authenticity of each voice we champion.
Brother Mockingbird is more than a publisher—it’s a community built on creativity, trust, and passion for stories that stay with you long after the last page.
We’re always looking for hardworking writers with original perspectives and unforgettable stories—voices that deserve to be heard.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
Be professional, patient, and persistent.
