Late Edition Press
Welcome.
We are Late Edition Press — a boutique indie press based out of Charlotte, North Carolina with pop-up events in Venice Beach. We are a blend of old-school craft and new-school hustle.
Our team comes from deep backgrounds in publishing, fiction writing, journalism, screenwriting, technical writing, editing, and social media strategy. We've been on both sides of the story: building it, shaping it, and getting it out into the world.
At Late Edition Press, we collaborate with novelists, screenwriters, bloggers, brand journalists, gig writers, and independent creatives.
Anyone carving their own lane — we're here for it.
Our Mission: To empower storytellers at every stage of the creative process, blending traditional editorial rigor with the flexibility and spirit of today's creator economy.

Late Edition Writer's Journal + Daily, Weekly, and Monthly Planners
The Late Edition Writer’s Journal will help you complete your writing projects by tracking your progress and planning your schedule. It’s perfect for fiction writers, screenwriters, bloggers, gig writers, journalists, and creatives of all types.
It is hard to become a disciplined writer, but we know this: If you can write every day for 30 days, writing becomes a hard habit to break. After 60 days, writing is in your DNA. You will write more and better than almost anyone you know.

We will help you become your own manager and develop the discipline and a process so you, too, can become a pro. Don't lose another day. Order your Writer's Journal now.
📝 Character Development Cards
Our character cards are easy to use. Our 17-page guide will take you step-by-step through each of the 16 features of a character’s development. The guide is filled with practicable tips and examples.

Our cards are not those Frankenstein charts where you identify a character’s height, weight, hair color, eye color, allergies, and other superficial traits. Our cards help you discover the character’s true character with features like the dreadful alternative, the ghost, conflict reaction, emotional drive, and more! You will write unforgettable characters that will keep readers turning your pages and buying your books.
📝 Story Development Kit
Our Story Development Kit is an incredibly easy, step-by-step process that any writer can master. We will help you plot your novel, avoid writer’s block, and keep you on track until you publish your novel or sell your screenplay.

The kit helps writers through the entire story development process:
  • Discover how to generate a story idea you will love to write.
  • Find the DNA, the true essence, of your story.
    Write the perfect synopsis to promote and pitch project.
  • Create an effective outline that gives structure to your story and makes the writing process much easier.
