INDIE AUTHOR COLLABORATIVE ◈

Where independent authors
shape collective futures

Fortuna Major Press invites indie authors to join our Indie Author Collective—an initiative dedicated to changing who belongs within the publishing landscape.

Part Bookstore

Part Peer Network

Our Vision

Join

Fill out our collaborator form so we can learn more about who you are, what you want to create, and most importantly, how we can support your work. You can also submit your work to be sold through Fortuna Major Press’s bookstore at the bottom of this page.

Receive

Members of the collaborative receive: an exclusive 10% discount on all of FMP’s offerings, the opportunity to join exclusive Zoom-based gatherings, have their work promoted by each other, and be added to our upcoming partner directory.

Conjure

As members of the collaborative, you’ll get to vote on which books Fortuna Major Press adds to our bookstore—think of yourselves as author-archivists, curators, and conjurers for today’s publishing landscape.

We center authors whose lived experiences align with LGBTQ2S+, BIPOC, and Disabled, Mad, or Neurodivergent communities, with a special focus on those rooted in the Northeast of Turtle Island.

Join The Collective.

Please fill out this form if you are an indie author interested in building meaningful, lasting relationships with other indie authors who share the values of Fortuna Major Press and are willing to consistently uplift each other’s work.

Provide a short (125 words or less) bio. Tell us about who you are, what you write, and what you are about.

How would you describe your lived experience?

FMP prioritizes marginalized authors whose identities or lived experiences align them with 2SLBGTQ+, BIPOC, and Disabled/Mad/Neurodivergent communities. We also prioritize people on Northeast Turtle Island land. Prioritizing does not mean exclusive to.

I identify as BIPOC

I identify as white

I identify as 2SLGBTQ+

I identify as Disabled/Mad/Neurodivergent

I am from Northeast Turtle Island

I am living on Northeast Turtle Island

None of these apply to me

What is your most recently published work and where can it be found?

Tell us about your most recently published work. Yes, self-published material counts.

Why do you want to work with Fortuna Major Press? How do you align with our values?

Please share why you want to be part of this collective.

Anything else you would like to share?

If there is any other information or experience you would like considered, please share it here.

Together, we’ll conjure creative power.

If you’re an independent author interested in having your work shared, sold, and celebrated through FMP’s online and pop-up bookstore network, we’d love to hear from you.
