About Lexword

A boutique publishing house built for authors who mean it

Our story

We started Lexword to fix a broken bargain

For too long, authors faced a false choice: hand your rights to a traditional publisher, or go it alone without craft or support. Lexword exists to end that trade-off.

We're an Australian-based publishing company serving authors around the world. We pair the craft and standards of a great publishing house with a simple promise: the book stays yours. All of it.

100% ownership and royalties, guaranteed in your agreement.

No hidden fees

Clear, upfront scope. You always know what you're paying for.

Honest timelines

Typically 3–3.5 months, mapped out before we begin.

Global from day one

Distribution to 40+ markets and every major retailer.
