Contributing Authors

We’ve worked with over 100 authors, to date, and you can get to know many of them through our Costs of Living contributor bios, Dread Mondays contributor bios, and featured stories contributor bios.

We currently have FIVE novella authors that we want to highlight in this part of the website. They are:

Andrew John Pixton of Salt Lake is the author of several acclaimed dark fantasy and horror novels, with Fables From Nevermore as his latest release. Known for exploring unusual worlds and unconventional philosophies, he’s now branching into new genres. When he’s not crafting tales of the surreal and sinister, Andrew sustains a career in social work and enjoys traveling, practicing martial arts, and indulging his love for vegan cookies.

Emily Flynn-Jones (she/they) is an award-winning multimedia storyteller. Equipped with a PhD on death, Emily draws together horror, magical realism, romance, and science fiction as she peers into the darker recesses of our cultural landscape. She is known for her critically lauded game, CURSES, a semi-autobiographical tale of witchcraft and womanhood and the dark short story collection, Is It Enough Yet?, featuring twisted tales inspired by millennial music. Her work has most recently appeared in the feminine rage charity anthology, Your Body, My Rage. Proudly Welsh, she is a settler in Canada where she lives with a terrible cat.

Jordan King-Lacroix is a Jewish writer from the Blue Mountains, just outside Sydney, Australia. His first book, the non-fiction Ugly: A Bikie’s Life, was published by Penguin-Random House in 2021, and his short story, “The Last Chosen”, in the Jewish Futures anthology (Fantastic Books, 2023), was well-received by critics. When not writing, he can be seen gigging around Sydney in his punk band, The Limited.

Nathaniel Darkish is half of the Gallegos-and-Darkish duo. More to come.

Whisper House Press Wholesale Terms

Standard Whisper House Press wholesale orders go through Ingram (printed via IngramSpark) — any of our titles can be ordered outright, at standard trade discount, through your existing Ingram account using the ISBNs listed above; Ingram orders are final-sale.

If you’d like the option to return unsold copies, order directly through us instead: we offer a 40% discount and net-90 terms (or 45% if paying upfront) on wholesale purchases of five or more copies, and we accept returns of that stock in sellable condition, handled personally on a case-by-case basis — shipping on both the original order and any return is the buyer’s responsibility. (We are doing our very best to match the big publishers’ terms but need to do the return-policy stuff on a one-on-one basis because we can’t carry the liability incumbent upon the publisher with open-ended returns via Ingram.)
