Inclusive publishing is a core value at Girl Friday. We have long observed a bounty of worthy books that don’t fit perfectly into a genre or have a less traditional platform, and we built our leading-edge independent publishing program to give them a forum. Girl Friday Books curates a list of distinctive works by enterprising authors across genres. Bird Upstairs highlights the lives and imaginations of a diverse set of young people’s experiences. And Flashpoint Books is a partnership publishing avenue designed to serve the needs of powerful creators, keeping their vision at the center.
