PUBLISHING

The power of storytelling, the ability to change lives, transcend time, and travel across borders without ever leaving your room, is quite magical.
A little boy dreaming of fantastical adventures with dinosaurs and ancient Egyptians in the desert pauses to wonder, How hot is it there?
A young girl sees someone like her becoming an astronaut, soaring beyond galaxies and wormholes into strange new worlds.
She knows it may not exist, but she’s happy to step into that world for a little while.
That wonder, that escape, that spark, is part of our mission here at Labworks Publishing.
Founded in 2020, Labworks Publishing was born from a vision to elevate voices that were often overlooked, voices with purpose, wisdom, and creativity bursting to be shared. Our mission is to help everyday storytellers become extraordinary authors. We are committed to helping authors, from first-time writers to seasoned creatives, bring their stories to life and use their books to build something greater.
What Makes Us Different
We are not just a publishing house; we are a launchpad.
At Labworks, we empower authors to retain ownership, build their brand, and turn their books into legacy tools. We combine the support of traditional publishing with the freedom and control of independent publishing. Every author we work with receives personalized strategy, creative empowerment, and the resources to thrive beyond the printed page.
We publish across multiple genres: children’s books, memoirs, self-help, novels, and guides. But more than that, we publish people who are willing to share their hearts, insights, and experiences with the world.
Our Promise to Writers
We promise to walk with you—not just to the final page, but through the purpose behind the pages. Whether you’re writing to heal, to teach, to inspire, or to build generational wealth, Labworks Publishing exists to help your story go further.
We’re not just interested in making books. We’re here to help you build movements, brands, and businesses rooted in your story.
