SUPPORT THE PRESS
Help meaningful stories reach more readers.
Black Ember Press is a Black-owned independent publishing house based in Portland, Oregon. We publish memoir, poetry, and guided reflection rooted in lived experience, with care for each author’s voice.
If our work matters to you, there are several ways to help it grow.
Buy or Gift a Book
Purchasing directly from Black Ember Press supports our authors and the continued work of the press. Choose a book for yourself, give one to someone you love, or introduce a title to your book club.
Make a Contribution
For those who want to support beyond purchasing a book, we welcome optional, one-time contributions toward the work of the press.
Contributions help with book production, printing, and the creation of free reader resources that bring stories into reflection and conversation.
Every contribution is appreciated. No purchase or contribution is required to be part of our community.
Support the Press
Black Ember Press is a for-profit business. Contributions are not tax-deductible charitable donations and do not purchase a product or ownership interest in the company.
Help a Story Travel
Support can also be a recommendation, an honest review, a request at your local library, or a conversation about a book that stayed with you.
Share our titles with a friend, invite your book club to explore them, or stay connected for new releases and reader resources.
Thank you for helping us build a home for stories worth telling.
