A Note in Plain Language
Hidden House Press exists to share stories, ideas, and experiences that may shift how you see the world—and yourself. At this time, we do not accept unsolicited manuscripts, but if you are personally invited to send us your manuscript, please be advised: If you choose to share your information with us, we treat it with care. We don’t sell it, trade it, or treat it like a commodity. We use it only to connect with you, deliver what you’ve asked for, and support the work we’re building.
If you join our email list, you’re not entering a marketing funnel—you’re stepping into a slower, more intentional form of communication. Expect thoughtful updates, occasional offerings, and meaningful invitations. Not noise.
You can leave at any time. No friction, no pressure.
