FOR AUTHORS
TWO DISTINCT PATHS FOR AUTHORS
At Aphrodite Media, we offer two separate ways for authors to collaborate with us. Each path serves a different purpose, with its own process and intention.
THE APHRODITE ATELIER
The Aphrodite Atelier is our editorial and author development division. Through immersive programs, strategic guidance, and collaborative refinement, we work with authors who want to strengthen their voice, elevate their manuscript, and develop work aligned with their creative vision and long-term ambitions.
APHRODITE BOOKS
Aphrodite Books is our publishing house. Authors seeking publication consideration may submit completed manuscripts separately through our submissions process. Submission to Aphrodite Books is independent from participation in the Aphrodite Atelier.

Disclaimer: The Aphrodite Atelier programs are educational, developmental, and partnership-oriented in nature. Participation in an Atelier program does not guarantee publication or representation by Aphrodite Books. While some authors may choose to engage in both, the publishing house maintains its own editorial review and acquisition process. We are highly selective and evaluate submissions based on editorial fit, narrative strength, market positioning, and long-term vision of the author.

Our cornerstone program offerings, The Editorial and The Lab, side by side.
Finally a program designed to help authors move from idea to finished.
Many ways to work together—from private collaboration to structured cohort to self-directed study. Each one is built around the same belief: the manuscript that exists is the one built inside the right environment.
