Our Story

Every woman has a story. Every woman deserves to tell it on her own terms.

Chicballyhoo Publishing was born from my desire to create a place for my own writing—a space free from expectations, limitations, and the need to fit neatly into someone else’s idea of what a story should be.

But that dream quickly grew into something bigger.

I wanted to honor other women with stories to tell, perspectives to share, and creative voices waiting to be heard. Women who believe their words matter, whether they’re writing their first page or finally sharing a story they’ve carried for decades.

We believe storytelling should be bold, authentic, sometimes unconventional, and always personal. Our mission is to celebrate independent voices, encourage creative expression, and give meaningful stories a place to shine.

Because being unknown should never mean being unheard.

And we believe every great story deserves a little ballyhoo.

Our approach

Made with readers in mind

We champion books with a point of view. We pair thoughtful editorial collaboration with considered design and a reader-first approach to every release.

The team

Care in every chapter

Contract Editors, designers, and publishing partners come together at Chicballyhoo to shape books with clarity and character. We believe the best publishing relationships are collaborative, generous, and grounded in craft.

What guides us

Stories worth sharing

We publish across genres because great reading cannot be contained by a single shelf. What matters is the invitation: a new way to see, feel, question, or imagine.


Our work begins with attention. We listen closely to authors, honor the shape of each project, and create books readers will want to return to and recommend.

“Where the newly known meets the wonderfully unknown.”
