BOOKLAUNCH

All our content is free to read online. The latest issue of Booklaunch is posted here on our home page. Earlier issues can be found on our Archive page.

Books featured in our magazine are available from our Bookshop page. Scroll left and right and click on any image to advance to a sales page. Most are offered at a discount and with free postage in the UK.

Booklaunch has its own publishing imprints: EnvelopeBooks (fiction and non-fiction), HardbackBooks (hardbacks) and PostcardBooks (biography and memoir). See the EnvelopeBookshop page.​

Would-be authors wanting to get published are welcome to send us pdfs of their work. We are interested in fiction and non-fiction. Our Publish page has more information.

Booklaunch showcases books that deserve attention but have not been reviewed in the mainstream media. We charge for our space and very attractive rates. Click on Promoting to learn more.

Some of the books that have featured in Booklaunch get turned into podcasts, accompanied by rolling scripts so listeners can follow the text as it is read out loud. See Podcasts.

If you can sell copies of Booklaunch or of EnvelopeBooks in your shop or to local schools, libraries, reading groups, book clubs, literary festivals or U3As, please email Jenny Chalcott.

To book one of our featured writers at a literary event or to ask us to talk about independent publishing for the benefit of local authors, please contact our assistant editor.
