About Us
We are independent writers, publishers, and readers. No agents. No corporate gatekeepers. Just stories.
Who We Are
Tales From A Harrogate Caravan began because we no longer wanted to rely entirely on massive online marketplaces and traditional publishing gatekeepers to share our work with the world. We are independent authors who believe that great stories deserve to reach readers directly.
Independent By Choice
We publish without publishers, literary agents, or corporate restrictions. Every decision about our work stays with us.
Printed Locally
We work with local printers rather than expensive publishing companies, keeping money within independent businesses.
Community First
More profits stay with creators. We are building a platform where independent authors can publish, grow an audience, and connect directly with readers.
What We Believe
Writers should retain ownership, rights, and creative control over their books. Readers deserve access to original voices that exist outside the mainstream publishing world.
Authors Keep Control
Every author on this platform retains full ownership of their work. We exist to amplify, not to own.
Stories Before Print
Read exclusive excerpts and chapters from upcoming independent books before they reach print.
No Gatekeepers
We do not decide whose story is worth telling. We simply provide the platform for writers to tell it themselves.
