Indie Rosarium Publishing Needs Your Help

Publishing is one of the oldest forms of communication of mass media. Through this medium stories and ideas are passed along to the masses. When it comes to telling stories crafted by and published by women and people of color, there are very few outlets quite like Rosarium Publishing.

Founded by Bill Campbell in 2013, Rosarium has made the proliferation of images, ideas and writing their charter.  Science fiction comicbooks, steampunk, satire and crime novels filled with the characters and visions that show people of color as intelligent, industrious, intelligent and resourceful. 

The Shadow League has interviewed Michelene Hess (Malice in Ovenland) and Jennifer Crute (Jennifers Journal) for our TSL Comicbook Convo podcast and have marveled at the works of its other creative minds as well.

I believe its imperative that people are able to tell their own stories. They can build their own tables rather than ask for a place at the table. – Bill Campbell, founder, Rosarium Publishing
