2024 ushers in a remarkable milestone. KBP has been in existence for 10 years. A full decade of decade of shaping stories, fostering creativity, and embracing the boundless possibilities of independent publishing. Ten years in the ever-evolving world of literature is not just a marker of time; it's a testament to resilience, passion, and the unwavering commitment of our author-owned community.
A Decade of Imagination, Independence, and Inspiration
For the past ten years, KBP has navigated the intricate landscapes of storytelling, learning, adapting, and above all, cherishing the diverse voices that make our community vibrant. This journey wouldn't have been possible without the incredible support of our authors, readers, and the literary enthusiasts who believe in the power of independent storytelling.
Celebrating a decade isn't just about surviving; it's about thriving. It's about weathering the storms, savoring the victories, and evolving with each chapter. It's a journey of learning, growing, and crafting stories that resonate with hearts and minds. To reach ten years is to embody the essence of resilience and creativity that defines KBP.
In honor of this milestone, KBP is thrilled to announce a special campaign that echoes the spirit of giving that has fueled our journey. Starting in the new year, for every book purchased from KeiterBennett Publishers, we will donate a book to the community. Inspired by the success of companies like Bombas, where each purchase sparks a donation, we aim to keep our Giving Partners stocked with an abundance of books to share with those who need them most.
Books Bought, Books Shared: How It Works
Step 1: Purchase a KBP Book
Every time you purchase a book directly from KeiterBennett Publishers, you're not just acquiring a story; you're igniting a chain of generosity.
Step 2: A Book for the Community
With your purchase, KBP will donate a book to our community through our Giving Partners, ensuring that the joy of reading reaches those who may not have access to it.
That's it. Buy one, we give one.
