Raconteur Publishing: The Story Behind the Press

A small, independent press built to steward imaginative voices with care.

Raconteur Publishing is a small, independent publishing house founded by Chandee Farrell, a passionate advocate for compelling, imaginative storytelling. Her vision for Raconteur Publishing is rooted in a simple mission: to bring unforgettable stories to life and share them with readers who seek depth, meaning, and emotional resonance.

Driven by a desire for creative freedom and intentional storytelling, Chandee established Raconteur Publishing to support richly developed fictional worlds and thoughtfully crafted narratives. As founder and publisher, she guides every stage of the publishing process—from concept development to editorial refinement and cover design—with a commitment to quality, care, and craft.

The press currently centers on speculative and imaginative fiction, beginning with the work of Chandee herself, writing under the pen name C. K. Farrell. These early titles help define the voice of the press while laying the groundwork for future growth.

With a focus on professionalism, creativity, and community, Raconteur Publishing is intentionally building a catalog shaped by integrity and longevity—one story at a time.
