​
INTO THE CHAOS
Chaos and Ink Books was founded on the idea that storytelling is a fundamental block of basic human society and should not be confined by commercial strictures. Rules for storytelling are guidelines, not absolutes. The story itself is more important than any arbitrary marketing tactics defined by genre conventions and tropes.
At Chaos and Ink, we champion books that bend genres, flip tropes, and challenge expectations, weaving wonder, rebellion, and heart into every page.
​
Chaos and Ink Books is an independent, punk-spirited publisher dedicated to imaginative storytelling that refuses to be constrained.
​
Steeped in defiance of gatekeeping and creative conformity, we exist to give space to stories that don’t fit neatly into commercial boxes. We value craft, collaboration, and bold imagination over formulas and trends.
​
Our goal is simple: high-quality storytelling built by creativity, care, and a fiercely determined spirit. Every book we publish is handled with intention and respect, because we believe readers deserve stories that dazzle the mind and tickle the imagination; books that make us laugh, cry, or simply wonder why.
​
Books teach us how to be human. They nurture the creative soul. We all deserve better stories and a place to tell them.
CHAOS WITH PURPOSE
Chaos and Ink Books believes creativity thrives in the margins.
​
We are proudly punk, unapologetically DIY, and deeply committed to the power of storytelling. We collaborate with authors who bring something unexpected to the page: stories shaped by passion, imagination, and a willingness to forge new paths.
​
We reject the idea that there is only one “right” way to tell a story. Rules are tools, not chains. Genre is a playground, not a cage. The story itself always comes first.
​
Disillusioned by the classism and gatekeeping that too often dominate traditional publishing, Chaos and Ink Books seeks to make space for voices that don’t fit the mold: genre-blenders, trope-flippers, and storytellers who ask uncomfortable questions or dare to imagine something new.
​
The most powerful tales hold unique viewpoints, foster inclusivity and the beauty of our differences, woven through authentic storytelling. Chaos and Ink Books wants to help bring those tales to light.
​
We are the goblins of publishing.
We thrive on imaginative chaos, guided by passion for craft, inclusivity, and the belief that the most powerful stories come from unique perspectives honestly told.
​
Because fiction doesn’t just entertain.
-It teaches empathy.
-It invites wonder.
-It reminds us how to be human.
​
And that kind of magic is worth fighting for.
