Black Rose Writing: Stories Worth Showcasing
Publishing is all about voices. Black Rose Writing, an independent press with a reputation for championing diverse and daring authors, knew their own digital presence had to reflect the same creativity they poured into their books. That’s where we came in.
A New Chapter Online
We started by redesigning their main website — a project that went beyond just polishing visuals. The goal was reliability, clarity, and a modern stage for the hundreds of authors under the Black Rose banner. The new site gave both readers and writers an easier way to discover books, awards, and opportunities.
Authors in the Spotlight
But the partnership didn’t stop there. Over time, we worked directly with eight of their authors (and counting) to craft personal websites that felt as unique as their stories. Each site became a digital extension of their creative identity. From debut novelists to seasoned voices, the goal was always the same: give authors a home online that feels professional, reliable, and ready to grow alongside their careers.
Raising the Stakes
Black Rose also runs the Maxy Awards, an annual competition recognizing standout books across genres. We designed the logo, branding, and website for the awards, giving it the same prestige and personality as the recognition itself.
Why It Matters
Working with Black Rose has been about more than design. It’s been about trust — helping an independent press and its authors show the world what they’ve built. Every project is a reminder that while great stories may start on the page, they thrive when they have a strong place to live online.
