Today's the official day - TWRP turns 18 years old.
So many twists and turns since we opened our doors in May 2006. Back then, RJ and I were up to our necks in raising kids and working full time and taking care of family. No idea that opening a company like this would be such an endeavor. “It will be fun” she said – lol. “We will see where it goes.”
Now here we are...18 years later. While I may be the face of the company and RJ may be the wizard behind the curtain, we are still here, and that is 100% attributed to all of our incredible editors, artists, and staff members. They are the true gardeners whose constant tending keeps the roots deep and the roses blooming.
Thank you, all of you, for every day helping us bloom and grow. There truly is no better team of people than the ones here.
And to our supporters, readers, and authors, I send you my love and thanks and heartfelt appreciation and gratitude. 🌹❤️

The Write Advice is a division of the traditional publishing house The Wild Rose Press, Inc.
It is not a computer program where you send your manuscript off and a computer does the work. We give each project from start to finish personal one-on-one attention. You can speak on the phone or by Zoom with one of the members of our team before you even begin the project. You can work direct with an editor who has been selected as a perfect fit for your genre. Our marketing and social media team is available for personal consultation as well.
We recognized over the years that publishing needs have changed and some authors need the flexibility that “doing it yourself” offers, but they weren’t sure how exactly to do it themselves. We created The Write Advice to help those authors.
Our mission at The Wild Rose Press has always been “writers helping writers,” and we bring that same mission to The Write Advice. Self-publishing with your personal team of experts.🌟✍️

Writer friends,
We are going to go out on a limb here and assume when you started your career, you didn’t say, “I’m becoming an author for the money.” 💳💰
No. You did it for the love of the craft. For the stories inside of you begging to be written.
Never lose sight of that on your publishing journey.
‼️There are more important things than being backed by any specific house.‼️
And as we head into our 17th YEAR in business (woo hoo!), we also promise to never lose sight of the reasons we started as well.
👉 To be the kinder, gentler publishing house that prioritizes communication and collaboration with the author.
👉 To continuously adapt to changes in the publishing world and develop new ways to better grow our authors and get their books into the hands of readers who need them.
🌹📖✨ Here’s to 17 years of The Wild Rose Press & another year of remembering what’s important!
