Empowering Authors to Publish
Our vision is to assist authors who seek to expand consciousness through their books; who have a message that fosters the Earth and our living sustainably in balance with her; and whose stories open our hearts to compassion, or our minds to greater awareness. We support creative endeavors that point to returning to wholeness and right relationship with the Earth and her creatures (more-than-humans). We promote collaboration and community; linking cultural creatives with one another and providing a vehicle for creative expression.
Our mission is to provide a vehicle of communication for the evolving human and community that is collaborative, creative and compelling. Leveraging contemporary publishing models and innovating with future models, we provide the means to broadcast your voice and message to the world. Our goal is to make publishing and communication easily accessible to everyone.
What You Can Expect From Us:
We previously owned and operated an art gallery and did fine art reproduction printing. We are now taking our favorite aspects of that business and applying them to 2nd Tier Publishing. Supporting our local artists and providing a beautiful venue for their work to be seen has now morphed into supporting writers and authors in being heard. The pride we felt in producing an accurate representation of a piece of artwork (giclee prints), is now the pride we feel in producing a book that accurately expresses your vision.
We love being immersed in the creative process. We are artists, photographers, printers, authors and designers ourselves, and know the importance of getting our work out into the world. We have an eye for beauty, color, design, composition, and quality, and we bring our unique combination of skills fully to your project.
