Publishing Division
Born from a mother’s love for stories—and a daughter’s vow to tell them.
JMarie & Co. Publishing was founded in honor of Janice Marie, a woman whose love of books was fierce, endless, and contagious. She believed in the power of a well-told story, the healing in a single sentence, and the way a good book could change everything. Her name is stitched into the soul of this company—every page, every cover, every voice we uplift is a living tribute to her.
At JMarie & Co., we don’t publish trends—we publish truth. We are a proudly independent, Black-owned publishing house committed to stories that burn bright, bloom wild, and bleed real. Stories that challenge silence, honor complexity, and celebrate reclamation in all its forms.
Whether it's fierce romance, raw memoir, haunting fantasy, or poetic fire, our imprints exist to hold space for bold voices—especially those too often overlooked or underestimated.
We believe:
-
In writing as revolution.
-
In publishing as empowerment.
-
In community over competition.
-
In books that crack something open—and leave you changed.
This isn’t just publishing. It’s legacy work. And we are so glad you’re here.
