Portland, OR\u2014<\/strong>Microcosm Publishing & Distribution has entered distribution agreements with three new client publishers: Nine Ten Publications<\/a>, a Canadian publisher specializing in art, craft, and creativity; Bellingham, WA-based Generous Press<\/a>, focused on high-caliber romance writing by queer, BIPOC, and disabled writers; and Bobby Dazzler, a mission-driven imprint of Jim Dandy Books featuring non-fiction and self-help titles that offer support for mental wellbeing, illness, and discrimination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of the new partnerships, Microcosm founder and CEO, Joe Biel, says, “We\u2019re excited about our growing collaborations with these publishers\u2014they are solid complements to Microcosm\u2019s own offerings in home and crafts, inclusive erotica and body positivity, and self-help and that acknowledges systemic injustice. They\u2019re a breath of fresh air expanding genres in substantial ways that are honestly interesting. All of them are logical companions to what we publish while still being remarkably different from us editorially.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nine Ten\u2019s newest release, Kate Atherley\u2019s Math for Knitters<\/em><\/a>, quickly skyrocketed to #5 on the Globe and Mail <\/em>bestsellers chart of Canadian non-fiction and has been taking the U.S. by storm, selling out of its first print run as it landed in Microcosm\u2019s warehouse. Kim Werker of Nine Ten is excited about the new partnership, explaining \u201cWorking with a values-aligned partner and such an enjoyable team to bring our books to a much wider audience of makers is a tremendous leap for Nine Ten.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Generous Press has been racking up praise for Black romantic comedy novel Losing Sight<\/em><\/a> <\/em>by Tati M. Richardson and inclusive romance anthology Someplace Generous<\/em><\/a>, edited by publishers Amber Flame and Elaina Ellis (formerly of Copper Canyon). Their previous titles were praised by the trade and continue to be popular. Elaina Ellis approached Microcosm for their new distribution relationship because \u201cThe inclusive romance market is surging, and Generous Press is growing along with it. Microcosm has cracked the code on scaling with integrity\u2014they’re the ideal partner to help us meet this incredible moment.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

And Bobby Dazzler<\/a> (co-led by Duncan MacLeod and Brenda Knight, formerly of Mango Publishing) is preparing its list of titles curated specifically for a collaboration with Microcosm. Knight says, \u201cMicrocosm is the stuff of dreams to me as a writer, publisher and fan of badass book people. I can’t wait for the day when the super cool feed store that sells gift books and CBD lattes is selling our books. Microcosm will put them there.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Microcosm vice president Elly Blue noted of all the new distribution clients, \u201cThese books feel like a natural fit for us\u2014I love the way they bring practical, political, and inclusive ideas into their respective lists.\u201d Microcosm currently represents Nine Ten Publications and their full front- and backlist catalogs everywhere but Canada, and will begin worldwide distribution for Generous Press with their spring 2026 frontlist. Microcosm will offer worldwide distribution for Bobby Dazzler\u2019s frontlist titles beginning in 2026.
