About Wild Badger Books and Submissions

Wild Badger Books, an imprint of Raw Earth Ink, seeks to create high quality non-fiction and picture books for both children and adults.

With the same values as its parent, Wild Badger Books is less about the publisher making money and more about giving opportunity to authors to see their work in print as a high quality book without draining the author dry. The publisher works as a team with the author, rather than as the boss. Personally, I’ve never been into material possessions and the search for more money, being a neo-hippie and minimalist, so I have created a place for new authors to be discovered by new readers, without taking a lot of their money.

That said, Wild Badger Books charges very minimally, just enough to cover the cost of the ISBNs and administrative fees, such as editing, proofing, formatting, graphic design, and advertising.

Currently, Wild Badger Books provides these services:

book cover creation
high quality book publishing
editing
formatting

You can send an email to raw.earth.ink@gmail.com to discuss possibilities or find me on Instagram @tara_caribou.

Wild Badger Books is currently accepting submissions for: children’s picture books, juvenile short story collections, personal memoirs, art/photography books.
