ABOUT US

Kaylie Jones Books is a New York-based imprint that creates a cooperative of dedicated emerging and established writers who play an integral part in the publishing process, from reading manuscripts, editing, and offering advice, to marketing upcoming publications. The list of brilliant novels unable to find homes within the mainstream is growing every day. It is our hope to publish books that bravely address serious issues—historical or contemporary—relevant to society today. Just because a book addresses serious topics and may include tragic events does not mean that the narrative cannot be amusing, fast-paced, plot-driven, and lyrical all at once.
