Publishing

Our Model

We are a small, independent publisher committed to making children’s book publishing more accessible for emerging authors and illustrators. Through hands-on support and community-centered practices, we help bring stories to life. Click here to see our most recent partnerships!

ACC works closely with authors and illustrators to make the children’s book publishing process more accessible and transparent.

Our approach centers collaboration, cultural care, and visibility, helping creators share their stories widely while staying rooted in their values and lived experiences.

We recognize that traditional publishing can be difficult to navigate, particularly for first-time and independent creators, so our model is rooted in guidance, collaboration, and care.

Story Development & Editorial Support

We support authors throughout the writing process, from early ideas to refined drafts.

Marketing & Promotion

We help creators share their books beyond publication through thoughtful marketing and promotion strategies. This includes guidance on branding, digital promotion, and storytelling-driven campaigns that center visibility and impact.

Outreach & Community Engagement

We coordinate outreach efforts that connect books with the communities they are meant to serve. Through partnerships with schools, libraries, and community organizations, we help authors and illustrators build meaningful engagement around their work.
