As an up-and-coming author, you know how important it is to represent yourself professionally with an online presence.
At Wild Ink Pages, we understand that your creative energy should be devoted to crafting stories, not wrestling with technology. That's why we've designed a simple and user-friendly website platform, exclusively for busy authors like you. Our goal is to make maintaining your website not just easy but enjoyable.
Founded in 2018, Wild Ink began with the goal of making book marketing easier and more accessible. Our business naturally evolved to encompass the creation of author websites. As co-founders who are not only partners in work but also in life, we (Scott and Colleen) infused our expertise and passion into our business. As a queer-owned enterprise, we're deeply committed to championing underrepresented voices in literature. Our strong connection to the writing community helps us understand the unique needs of authors like you.
Join Wild Ink Pages and start showcasing your writing talent with a website that reflects your professionalism, leaving you more time to focus on what truly matters – your storytelling.
