History and Philosophy
Escape Media Publishers was formed in 1997 with the publication of our first trade paperback, The Trouble with Paradise by David A. Ross. From inception, our goal has always been to publish excellence in contemporary literature. Our commitment comes first and foremost from our unbridled love of fine writing, as well as from the recognition that a changing industry needs new venues to showcase the work of lesser-known but talented authors.
Current and Upcoming Titles
To date, Escape Media Publishers has published nine trade titles, with six new titles planned in 2004-2005.
